Original Note:
The auroras came from a solar flare + CME that was predicted days in advance using satellites & telescopes. Running continuously for 24 hours HAARP puts 3×10¹¹ Joules into the atmosphere. The CME put >10²⁰ Joules into the atmosphere (~300 million times more). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-frequency_Active_Auroral_Research_Program#Site https://arxiv.org/pdf/1308.1480
