Conspiracy lunatics come up with some weird theories. This one is wild.

Conspiracy theories falsely blame Colombia earthquake on Alaska research program

An enduring conspiracy theory has resurfaced on social media after a 7.4 magnitude earthquakehit western Colombia on Monday, with users blaming a research program in Alaska for the disaster.

Posts falsely claim that the earthquake, which has killed at least 270 people and left widespread damage, was caused by the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program, or HAARP, which studies the properties and behavior of the upper atmosphere.

This is false. The U.S. Geological Survey says that the Colombia earthquake was caused primarily by “strike-slip faulting” — when two sections of Earth’s crust move horizontally past each other. The epicenter of the earthquake is within the country’s Pacific region, which lies along the “Ring of Fire,” a line of seismic faults encircling the Pacific Ocean where most of the world’s earthquakes occur.

HAARP has been the subject of conspiracy theories since the military started building it in the early 1990s. In addition to allegations that it can cause earthquakes, believers have falsely claimed that it is a mind-control device and that it can control the weather.

A multi-purpose HAARP!

“Project Anchor”

NASA assures humanity Earth’s gravity will not disappear this week after insane conspiracy theories ran rampant

Viral conspiracy theories that Earth’s gravity will briefly vanish on Wednesday — purportedly causing a cataclysm the government is hiding — are entirely untrue, NASA assured humanity.

The viral theories involved claims of a leaked NASA document describing “Project Anchor,” a supposed program with an $89 billion budget dedicated to preparing the United States for the calamity caused by the gravitational event.

Hey, cmon, don't you recall the comet that some idiot at Harvard famous for his claims of extra terrestial spacecraft said was not a comet by an alien spacecraft and when it came around the sun it would deviate towards the earth? needless to say it was a comet that went around the sun and went back out into space on its orbit. Guy watched too many Star Trek episodes where they shoot around the sun to go back or forwards in time
