NASA, Greenland Ice Sheet and Cold War

NASA accidentally discovers hidden Cold War base beneath Greenland ice
Several months ago, scientist Chad Greene was flying aboard a Gulfstream III with engineers in an effort to monitor a radar instrument on the Greenland Ice Sheet. Flying over northern Greenland, Greene was able to photograph the ice sheet from the aircraft window. This image led to the discovery of something buried under ice.
