The only bright spot on HAARP’s horizon right now is that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is expected on site as a client to finish up some research this fall and winter. DARPA has nearly $8.8 million in its FY 14 budget plan to research “physical aspects of natural phenomena such as magnetospheric sub-storms, fire, lightning and geo-physical phenomena.”
British government papers, just released by the National Archives, show that throughout the Seventies there was deep mistrust between the two superpowers over environmental warfare. The documents reveal that both the US, which led the field, and the Soviet Union had secret military programmes with the goal of controlling the world’s climate. “By the year 2025 the United States will own the weather, ” one scientist is said to have boasted.
Since then, a United Nations treaty has been signed which bans environmental warfare, such as causing earthquakes, melting the polar ice caps and altering climate. But some experts believe that clandestine work to create the ultimate weapon of mass destruction continues.
ARTICLE I
1. Each State Party to this Convention undertakes not to engage in military or any other hostileuse of environmental modification techniques having widespread, long-lasting or severe effectsas the means of destruction, damage or injury to any other State Party.
2. Each State Party to this Convention undertakes not to assist, encourage or induce anyState, group of States or international organization to engage in activities contrary to theprovisions of paragraph 1 of this article.
ARTICLE II
As used in article 1, the term "environmental modification techniques" refers to any techniquefor changing - through the deliberate manipulation of natural processes--the dynamics,composition or structure of the Earth, including its biota, lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere or outer space.
Yeah, we weren't to impressed with the show's format either.
They may be closing that particular one to stop people's curiosity and rumors as to what is really going on behind closed doors.
HAARP put the world on notice two years ago that it would be shutting down and did not submit a budget request for FY 15, Keeney said, “but no one paid any attention.” Now, he says, they’re complaining. “People came unglued,” Keeney said, noting that he’s already had inquiries from Congress. Universities that depended upon HAARP research grants also are upset, he said.
The proximate cause of HAARP’s early May shutdown was less fiscal than environmental, Keeney said. As he explained it, the diesel generators on site no longer pass Clean Air Act muster. Repairing them to meet EPA standards will run $800,000. Beyond that, he said, it costs $300,000 a month just to keep the facility open and $500,000 to run it at full capacity for 10 days.
Here's the show, 'Joe Rogan Questions Everything ~ EP02 ~ Weaponized Weather' for those who also didn't catch it yet.
They actually closed due to funding...
Like the government is short of money.........oh that's a good one
As things stand, the Air Force has possession for now, but if no other agency steps forward to take over HAARP, the unique facility will be dismantled, Keeney said. He pointed out that it would cost less to bulldoze the antenna field than it would to replace the 180 antenna elements.
[Just to add, if they did move it to another complex, we wouldn't hear about it until a leak surfaced. And it would have a different code/project name.]
In America, there are two related ionospheric heating facilities: the HIPAS, near Fairbanks, Alaska, which was dismantled in 2009, and (currently offline for reconstruction) one at the Arecibo Observatory[16] in Puerto Rico. The European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association (EISCAT) operates an ionospheric heating facility, capable of transmitting over 1 GW effective radiated power (ERP), near Tromsø, Norway.[17] Russia has the Sura Ionospheric Heating Facility, in Vasilsursk near Nizhniy Novgorod, capable of transmitting 190 MW ERP.

They probably figured out a way to do the same job from orbit using a classified array of military satellites..
Just a thought...
