I just watched Robotics;Notes. The manga not yet.

A monopole fell from the sky. And later, lots more begun raining.

It was a recurring theme in the series that there was a solar flare cooking
up, so I was under the impression that it was also making funny things in the
earth's atmosphere kinda explaining the monopoles.

But later in the series we find out that

> There is no solar flare at all. All the info about it is fake.

So, what's up with the monopoles?

My next guess was that it was part of

> Kimijima Kou's plan to make the whole solar flare thing more realistic by
> somehow synthesising monopoles and throwing them off the sky (somehow)

But I'm not sure if that's confirmed in the series or the manga.

robotics-notes
Why were monopoles raining?


As explained by Reading Steiner in [this question on
ask.fm](http://ask.fm/SciADV/answer/121050122039), this isn't actually covered
in the anime, but in the VN, Kai knocked the HAARP Radar into the sweet spot
for electromagnetic interference, creating them.
