NASA, Greenland and Cold War

NASA shows off image "acquired by chance" of U.S. military's abandoned "city under the ice" in Greenland
Scientists now have a clearer picture of Camp Century, an abandoned U.S. military base long hidden under the ice in Greenland, thanks to a NASA research team's good luck.
NASA Uncovers a Hidden Cold War City Buried Beneath Greenland’s Ice
NASA scientists accidentally uncovered Camp Century, a hidden Cold War base under Greenland's ice, using advanced radar technology in April 2024. This discovery not only brings historical artifacts to light but also assists in ice sheet studies critical for understanding future sea level changes.
'City under the ice': NASA scientists find abandoned Cold War military base in Greenland

NASA Finds Secret Underground “City” Hidden From The World Under 100 Feet Of Ice And Snow
NASA scientists unearthed an astonishing man-made spectacle, lying frozen 100 feet below the surface and frozen in secrecy and ice. The post NASA Finds Secret Underground “City” Hidden From The World Under 100 Feet Of Ice And Snow first appeared on Bored Panda.
NASA Discovers Secret Army Base Buried Under Decades of Ice
Radar surveys occasionally show evidence of the base, lurking there like an environmental time bomb under the ice. But in April 2024, using NASA's Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR) strapped to the belly of the plane, scientists were able to resolve Camp Century in a new level of detail.
NASA plane swooped over the Arctic. It detected a buried military base.
A NASA research aircraft spotted Camp Century, home to the secretive Cold War project Iceworm, deep beneath Greenland's ice.
NASA Radar Reveals Cold War 'City Under The Ice' In Greenland: 'We Didn't Know What It Was'
"In the new data, individual structures in the secret city are visible in a way that they've never been seen before," said NASA cryospheric scientist Chad Greene, who was aboard a Gulfstream III jet carrying the radar when Camp Century was detected.
NASA radar accidentally finds secret Cold War 'city under the ice' in Greenland
As a NASA science flight was flying over the Greenland ice sheet this spring, a surprise popped up on a specialty radar: a hidden Cold War city more than 100 feet beneath the ice.
NASA Found a Secret Military Base Buried 100 Feet Deep in Greenland’s Ice Shelf
NASA scientists have found the remains of a U.S. military base buried 100 feet below the surface of the ice in Greenland. Camp Century, as it was called, was a Cold War-era satellite for the U.S. Army used as a front for a planned arsenal of nuclear missiles.
Scientists Discovers A Forgotten City Hidden Under Ice
In April 2024, scientists flying over Greenland made a surprising discovery. While flying over the ice, they detected a strange signal on their plane's instruments, WP writes. The signal pointed to something buried beneath the ice.
