The objective of the flight is to collect data and make useful predictions to save human lives.
As is common practice, when extreme weather events occur, conspiracy theorists go wild. It's happening again this time with Hurricane Milton, where users are identifying elusive “signs” that it is a planned event. The discovery of the presence of a plane from the American government agency National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) fueled their imagination, drawing inspiration from conspiracy theories about chemtrails and HAARP (we talk about it here). In reality they discovered nothing, the operation of the plane is known and transparent.
For those in a hurry
- Users do not know about “hurricane chasers”.
- This is a specialized group of pilots and researchers who study these weather events.
- The group's goal is to study these events closely to provide data.
- This data is used to analyze the trend of hurricanes and make useful forecasts to save human lives.

The video is shared with the following text:
What the hell are these planes doing flying over the eye of Hurricane Milton? All signs point to these hurricanes being a planned event. So who is flying the planes to power and fuel these storms? Who owns cymatic technology? Now we all know about HAARP…
Duke Energy is preparing for the situation where more than 1 million customers will be without power in Florida due to Hurricane Milton. Duke Energy owns the dams that release water in North Carolina. They also own Hawaiian Electric, where the Lahaina, Maui, fire occurred. Vanguard Blackrock and State Street are Duke Energy's largest shareholders. And we're supposed to believe that these MONSTER hurricanes the size of entire countries are perfectly normal???
Here is the route of the plane traced in the video which, in reality, is not strange:
The “hurricane chasers”
In the Facebook post being analyzed, a question is asked: “What the hell are these planes doing flying over the eye of Hurricane Milton?” The answer can be found on the NOAA website, where you can consult a space dedicated to this type of operation: “NOAA Hurricane Hunters”.
This is a specialized group made up of pilots and researchers accustomed to operating in extreme conditions. The goal? Collect as much data as possible to analyze hurricane trends, make predictions, and better understand these events. Here is a video of the operations during the Hurricane Milton flyby aboard the “Miss Piggy” aircraft (the P-3 Orion shown in the image above):
Inside the area, videos of the operations carried out by the team are also broadcast, all in perfect sunlight.
Conclusions
There is no user discovery. There is no cloud seeding operation or phantom generation of hurricanes. The purpose of NOAA's “Miss Piggy” flight is not related to a conspiracy theory, but to the important task of collecting data to analyze the trend of hurricanes in order to make predictions that could save human lives.
