Khaberni - Seismology has rung the alarm bell again, after the Dutch observer Frank Hoogerbeets sparked a wave of controversy and concern on social media with his warning of potential seismic activity in the coming days, hinting at what he called an «surprise» that could shake the Earth.
The Dutch observer Hoogerbeets is known for his controversial predictions, and he pointed out in a video posted on his accounts to the alignment of the Earth, Moon, and Jupiter between February 13 and 15, emphasizing that this planetary alignment could lead to increased seismic activity on Earth. He said: «I advise you to be very cautious, as a surprise might occur».
Alongside his warning, the Dutch researcher focused on what he calls planetary engineering, which links celestial movements to earthquakes, asserting that following these alignments is necessary for predicting seismic activity.
However, a large number of geologists and astronomers have rejected these theories, considering them completely unscientific, confirming that the movement of planets does not affect seismic activity on Earth, and that the probability of such an impact is considered scientifically impossible.
Hoogerbeets's warning comes after he drew attention in 2023, when he predicted the devastating earthquake in Turkey three days before it happened, which killed more than 50,000 people, increasing his fame on social media, and making his followers anticipate all his new warnings.
Frank Hoogerbeets chairs the System Solar Engineering Survey (SSGEOS), an institution focused on monitoring celestial geometry and its relationship with seismic activity, and he continues to publish his predictions despite widespread scientific criticism, insisting that his following cosmic engineering helps predict earthquakes before they occur.
At the same time, social media has launched a wave of debate and controversy between supporters warning of planetary conjunctions and critics considering them just controversial speculations, reflecting the significant influence of Hoogerbeets on the digital public opinion.
