Knight Chronicles
Weather Weapons & HAARP
by Steven Knight · Paperback edition
“The storm is coming. And thanks to the foresight and innovation of the United States military, we will be ready.”
In the 21st century, the nature of warfare has evolved beyond the traditional domains of land, sea and air. The new battlefield is the atmosphere itself — vast, unpredictable and strategically decisive. For decades, conspiracy theories have painted a sinister picture of the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program. But they miss the fundamental truth: the race to understand and influence the atmosphere is, at its heart, about defense.
From the prescient work of Nikola Tesla and the seizure of his papers after death, to the cutting-edge ionospheric research conducted at HAARP in Gakona, Alaska, Steven Knight traces the strategic thread that runs from Tesla’s “wall of force” concept through Operation Popeye in Vietnam to the modern doctrine of atmospheric dominance.
This is a documentary investigation — not conspiracy, but necessity. It reveals the science, the strategy and the people behind the programs that have been so often maligned and misunderstood. A story of peace through strength, and of the quiet, thankless work of those who stand guard on the unseen battlefield.
