Episode description
Dr. Nick Begich, author of Angels Don't Play This HAARP, returns to discuss the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program operating in Alaska. Art Bell explores the HAARP antenna array, a jointly managed Air Force and Navy project capable of one billion watts of effective radiated power, designed to beam focused energy into the ionosphere. Begich details the system's potential applications, including submarine communication, earth-penetrating tomography, over-the-horizon radar, and weather modification.
The conversation turns to the biological effects of pulsed radio frequency emissions in the one-to-twenty hertz range, which corresponds to predominant human brain wave frequencies. Begich cites Air Force documents describing how such emissions can cause brain entrainment, mood alteration, and even cardiac arrest. Art Bell reveals that HAARP program manager John Heckscher declined an invitation to appear on the show after checking with his superiors.
Breaking news interrupts throughout the broadcast as an 8.1 magnitude earthquake strikes near New Guinea, prompting tsunami warnings across the Pacific. A volcanic hazard alert is also issued for the Mammoth Lakes area of California following hundreds of swarming earthquakes. Begich connects these geologic events to concerns about pumping unprecedented energy into an already destabilized planetary system.
