The astronomer, who is believed to often “predict” where earthquakes will occur and has been called by some circles the “earthquake oracle”, has once again become a leading topic for the world’s media. This time he attracted attention with his remarks about the Sea of Marmara.
“Astronomer” Frank Hoogerbets hypothesized that the Moon, Sun, and other planets cause earthquakes on Earth. In this context, the supposed scientist who often appears on TV programs and broadcasts his “calculations” also often shares the places where he expects an earthquake on his Youtube channel.
The places where Hoogerbets expects an earthquake tend to be the world’s most active faults. Sometimes even if these expected fault earthquakes do not occur, people were influenced by his predictions.
By claiming that sensitive clustering in planetary geometry will cause tremendous seismic activity on earthHoogerbets suggests that soon expect mega earthquakes on the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kuril Islands.
While many social media users can’t even understand how a so-called earthquake expert can make such predictions, Hoogerbets claims to have developed special software and conducts its analysis through it.
Describing myself as “researcher” and “planetary geometry expert”, Hoogerbets has been described as an “earthquake expert” or “earthquake watcher” in some quarters.
Many people try to understand what will happen to them in the future, out of fear and great anxiety. The warnings of quackery directed at so-called earthquake experts such as Hoogerbets are of great concern.
The most affected by the predictions are those who have been affected by an earthquake or whose loved ones are in the earthquake zone.
Scientists openly assess Hoogerbets’s statements as quackery.
He defends himself: “I knew about the earthquake”, but the scientists rebelled. They accuse me: “He is not an expert, not a fortune teller, but a charlatan!”
Three days before the February 6, 2023 earthquake, Hoogerbets was right when he tweeted: “Sooner or later there will be a 7.5 earthquake in these regions. By quoting the concerned payon in Turkey.”
He was also lucky in predicting the earthquake that occurred in Tokat, Central Turkey on April 18, 2024. That is why many people around the world believe in the predictions of the “earthquake oracle”.
These days Hoogerbets managed to get attention again with a post about a bombastic new “prediction”“Maritsa” reported
He used the following words in his post published on his social media account:
“As it approaches on August 18-19, it is important to be alert for a possible major earthquake. According to the latest fluctuations, Crete, Greece, the Dodecanese Islands, the Aegean Sea and the Sea of Marmara should be on high alert.”
