"We were looking for the bed of the ice and out pops Camp Century," NASA cryospheric scientist Alex Gardner said.
NASA shows off images of abandoned US military base hidden under the ice in Greenland
NASA has released photos of a US military base that was built in the ice in Greenland during the Cold War and later abandoned. The photos were captured by happenstance while NASA scientist Chad Greene was flying over the Greenland Ice Sheet.
'City under the ice': NASA scientists find abandoned Cold War military base in Greenland
NASA scientists found Camp Century, an abandoned Cold War military base, during a flight to map the Greenland Ice Sheet.
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.
NASA's bleeding-edge radar has captured a secret Cold War base under Greenland's receding ice sheet
NASA performed a scientific mission earlier this year, surveying Greenland's massive ice sheet to test the limits and capabilities of its Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture
NASA radar accidentally finds secret Cold War 'city under the ice' in Greenland
The CIRES-led study used ground-penetrating radar to estimate the amount of waste under the ice. The team found that the waste at Camp Century covers about 136 acres, about the size of 100 football fields, and contains an estimated 53,000 gallons of diesel fuel and 63,000 gallons of wastewater.
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.
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 scans reveal abandoned city buried under ice in Greenland
Scientists and engineers took the radar image in April 2024 as they flew over northern Greenland aboard Nasa’s Gulfstream III jet. The abandoned city is a military base called Camp Century, built in 1959 by cutting a web of tunnels under a near-surface layer of the Greenland ice sheet.
