Art Bell hosts defense scientist Dr. Joseph Resnick and technology researcher Guy Kramer for a rare discussion about the HAARP facility in Alaska, a program whose guests required senatorial-level approval to appear on air. Dr. Resnick, who holds 26 patents including classified stealth technology work, traces his involvement with HAARP back to 1983 during the Reagan-era DARPA programs. He reveals that HAARP's primary purpose is likely ballistic missile defense, as the charged ionosphere could fry the electronics of incoming ICBMs.
Kramer explains that steering HAARP's signal requires three antenna arrays, though officially only two are acknowledged. He presents evidence suggesting a third array may exist under advanced camouflage technology. The guests describe HAARP's potential applications ranging from submarine communications and ground-penetrating radar to stimulating crop growth through extremely low frequency emissions that alter global ion ratios.
Art presses both guests on whether HAARP is responsible for unprecedented shortwave radio disruptions he has observed since September 2004, with reliable frequencies shutting down within an hour of sunset. Dr. Resnick also breaks news that a peregrine falcon carrying avian flu was found dead within the continental United States, a story not yet reported in mainstream media. The conversation touches on a patent held by HAARP's designer describing a method to create nuclear-sized explosions without radiation by igniting atmospheric methane.
