Was Japan's 8.9 Earthquake Caused by HAARP?

Let me state up front that I'm not saying that HAARP caused the earthquake. However, as a conspiracy theory blog, I have to cover all the bases. I will update this article as more information becomes available.

In case you missed it, a devastating 8.9 earthquake hit Japan this morning around 5:46 UTC on March 11, 2011.

The 03/11/2011 earthquake (preliminary magnitude 8.9) near the east coast of Honshu, Japan, occurred as a result of thrust faulting on or near the subduction zone interface plate boundary between the Pacific and North America plates. At the latitude of this earthquake, the Pacific plate moves approximately westwards with respect to the North America plate at a velocity of 83 mm/yr. The Pacific plate thrusts underneath Japan at the Japan Trench, and dips to the west beneath Eurasia. The location, depth, and focal mechanism of the March 11 earthquake are consistent with the event having occurred as thrust faulting associated with subduction along this plate boundary. Note that some authors divide this region into several microplates that together define the relative motions between the larger Pacific, North America and Eurasia plates; these include the Okhotsk and Amur microplates that are respectively part of North America and Eurasia.

If you check out the HAARP magnetometer image above, you will see a lot of HAARP activity between 4:00 UTC and 8:00 UTC. The link for the HAARP magnetometer is here, but it will likely be outdated if you are viewing this site at a later point in time.

Previous readers of this blog may know that there have been many allegations about HAARP being responsible for many natural disasters.

As for a potential motive, perhaps it is because Japan has thoughts of becoming a nuclear state.

Tokyo's outspoken Governor says his country, which suffered history's only nuclear attack, should build nuclear weapons to counter the threat from fast-rising China.

In an interview with The Independent, Shintaro Ishihara said Japan could develop nuclear weapons within a year and send a strong message to the world.

Rig Fire at GI 101A Oil Production Platform in Gulf of Mexico (Raw Video)

Per the U.S. Coast Guard:

A fire burns on board the GI 102A oil production platform 50 miles south of Grand Isle, March 6, 2011. The Coast Guard responded with multiple sea and air assets to the reports of the fire -- rescuing the two individuals who were on board the platform at the time. U.S. Coast Guard photo.

FLASHBACK: Terahertz Radiation Fields Reportedly Destroy Human DNA

Airport Scanner - DNA Breathing Dynamics in the Presence of a Terahertz Field

This is why I will not go through a body scanners. Although the reports say the airport scanners operate at a sub-terahertz frequency, I do not necessarily believe the reports. There is no way to penetrate clothing and other materials without a serious dose of a radiation. A serious dose of radiation aimed at the human body will have a negative effect. I don't need science to tell me this fact, but if you are not convinced, then download this document (DNA Breathing Dynamics in the Presence of a Terahertz Field) at the official web link here.

Abstract - We consider the influence of a terahertz field on the breathing dynamics of double-stranded DNA. We model the spontaneous formation of spatially localized openings of a damped and driven DNA chain, and find that linear instabilities lead to dynamic dimerization, while true local strand separations require a threshold amplitude mechanism. Based on our results we argue that a specifi c terahertz radiation exposure may significantly aff ect the natural dynamics of DNA, and thereby influence intricate molecular processes involved in gene expression and DNA replication...

In summary, we have found that a THz field may cause dynamical separations of the DNA double-strand...

This suggests that THz radiation may signi cantly interfere with the naturally occurring local strand separation dynamics of double-stranded DNA, and consequently, with DNA function...

Declassifed Government Research Paper Reveals Evidence for Possible Companion Star to Sun

Evidence for a Solar Companion Star (1984)

I'm posting this one for all the 10th Planet, Planet X and Nibiru readers who might be checking out my page. If the above image of the document does not appear, you can check it out on the government's web page.

Periodicity seen in both the mass extinctions and large impact cratering on earth can be explained if one postulates that the sun has a companion star, orbiting in a moderately eccentric orbit with a major axis of 2.8 light-years. No other explanations that have been suggested are compatible with known facts of physics and astronomy. If the companion is a red dwarf star, the most common kind in the galaxy, then no previous astronomical observations would have found it. A search for red objects with large parallax is now underway at Berkeley, and has a good chance of identifying the star in the near future.

Second Boeing-Built Unmanned Orbital Test Vehicle X-37B Begins Flight

I previously covered the X-37B orbital test vehicle. It is the first unmanned space vehicle to successfully return after completing a mission. Here is the second act in this drama. Coincidentally, the Air Force unveils this program almost concurrently with the retiring of the Space Shuttle fleet.

CAPE CANAVERAL AIR FORCE STATION, Fla., March 5, 2011 -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] today announced the successful launch of the second Boeing-built X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle (OTV) for the U.S. Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO). The OTV was launched on an Atlas V rocket into a low-Earth orbit today at 5:46 p.m. Eastern time from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 41.

"History was made in December when the X-37B became the United States' first unmanned vehicle to return from space and land on its own," said Craig Cooning, vice president and general manager of Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems. "The success of that mission validated this reusable and effective way to test new technologies in space and return them for examination.

"Today, we took another important step with the successful launch of the second OTV, enabling the RCO to further experiment with the vehicle and its ability to operate in low-Earth orbit," Cooning continued. "Close teamwork between the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office, the United Launch Alliance Atlas team, and the 45th Space Wing at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station made this launch a success."

The first OTV was launched in April 2010 and orbited for approximately eight months. In December, it successfully de-orbited and landed at Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif., where it continues to undergo post-flight evaluation.

The X-37B design combines the best of aircraft and spacecraft design into an affordable, unmanned space-based test platform. Program objectives include space experimentation, risk reduction, and concept-of-operations development for reusable space vehicle technologies.

Boeing's commitment to this space-based unmanned vehicle spans a decade and includes support to the Air Force Research Lab's X-40 program, NASA's X-37 program, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's X-37 Approach, Landing and Test Vehicle program.

Boeing program management, engineering, test and mission support functions for the OTV program are conducted at Boeing sites in Huntington Beach, Seal Beach, and El Segundo, Calif.
