A hypothesis that has been tested and proven false?

That is a failed hypothesis. Although this sounds like a bad thing, in science it is actually an example of good science. The philosopher Karl Popper declared that real science was defined by hypothesis that could be tested and proven false or true. For example you can make a hypothesis that the falling speed of a body is proportional to its mass. The hypothesis can be put to test and shown false. This was the difference in World view between Aristoteles and Gallilei: Aristoteles put forward the hypothesis and Galilei tested it. Pseudo-science like astrology, religion, philosophy, politics and so on does not put forward testable hypothesis. No pseudo-science dare to put forward a testable hypothesis.

What natural phenomena has science so far failed to control to any significant extent?

Very few natural phenomena can be controlled. Both weather and geologic activity (earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes) contribute to natural disasters, and all we can do is adapt our preparation for them and our responses to them.One attempt to control weather, by cloud seeding, has had some limited success but is generally both too expensive to use and too erratic in its results.
