Camp Century was established in 1959 and was initially presented as a research facility. However, it also served a covert military purpose, housing a clandestine missile facility known as Project Iceworm. This project aimed to deploy nuclear missiles beneath the Greenland ice, with plans for a massive base that could accommodate up to 2,000 firing positions for 600 missiles
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 Radar technology. The agency didn't expect to "see" anything interesting down there, yet they rediscovered a long-abandoned base built by the US during the Cold War.
