There may be more truth to this than previously thought:
On Christmas Day, President-elect Trump shared on Truth Social his wishes for a merry Christmas “to the people of Greenland, which is needed by the United States for National Security purposes and, who want the U.S. to be there, and we will! . . .” ... .Trump added, “For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.”

There's nothing to "like" about that.

Trump posts that stuff because he's preparing and getting Americans hyped up for his plan for USA's impending declaration of war against 4 countries now. Now those countries and other countries that are those countries' allies are preparing themselves to go on an economic war and worse against America.

He isn't even inaugurated yet, it only took him two months and he's already suddenly made himself and America the most disliked and resented country in the world.
 
From what i see last while all elected officials are mostly indigenous peoples and they want everyone and everything out of their country so it remains or returns to as natural state and way of life as possible. they pushed out mining companies and canceled contracts and more and are fighting to get the mess we left under the ice cleaned up before it starts leaking in future.

yep...but they are taking us to court to force clean up...search articles if you want to read...things change in greenland last bit...how far will it change only time will tell.
 
At least giving the impression of stating what your goals are is a refreshing change from hidden meetings.

I have spent a tiny amount of time north of the arctic circle here in north america and the people i met during six trips are not what the mainstream news or their political leaders purport them to be imo..

"NASA Finds Underground 'City' Hidden 100 Feet Below Icy Surface" Tuesday, Dec 10, 2024 - 07:55 PM

In the vast, icy expanses of Greenland, a place more synonymous with desolate, arctic landscapes than with the shadows of human history, NASA scientists have stumbled upon an extraordinary anomaly. Buried beneath a hundred feet of ice lies a remnant of a bygone era, originally hidden from the world above and shrouded in Cold War secrecy.

What was initially just another radar scan over the frosty tundra turned into a discovery of an underground “city,” a relic of geopolitical strategies from a tension-filled past. This isn’t a tale of ancient civilizations, but rather a hidden chapter of recent history, now frozen in time, waiting to be uncovered. What secrets does this icy fortress hold?

The Discovery of Camp Century​

In a groundbreaking exploration, NASA’s radar technology unveiled an extraordinary find beneath Greenland’s ice—a secret Cold War base known as Camp Century or “the city under the ice.” This discovery, made in April 2024 during a flight testing new radar equipment, revealed intricate underground structures that have not been seen so vividly until now.



While NASA scientists were testing the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR) mounted on a Gulfstream III aircraft, they captured a surprising image. Alex Gardner, a cryospheric scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, noted, “We were looking for the bed of the ice and out pops Camp Century. We didn’t know what it was at first.” This advanced radar system is not your typical radar; it’s designed to give a more dimensional view of what lies beneath the ice by not only looking downward but also to the sides.

The UAVSAR technology has proven pivotal in this discovery. It allowed the team to see the underground city in unprecedented detail, mapping out the camp’s layout against historical blueprints and revealing structures that conventional radar had missed. This novel imaging technique represents a significant leap in ice-penetrating radar technology, offering new ways to understand the geological and environmental history of icy regions.

Mmm hmmmm. It also happens to be the world's largest supply of pure fresh water. More than anything else, that ice cap is the most precious resource of all natural resources in the world now. And that water alone is the real incentive for his nibs wanting to gain control of it. Control the world's greatest supply of fresh water, control the world and hold all of the world hostage. National Security is just the lame excuse being used for his nibs wanting to own and control it and control the world. Think about it.
 

Technological and Engineering Features of Camp Century​

The construction of Camp Century was a remarkable feat of engineering, designed to test the feasibility of establishing military facilities under the harsh conditions of the Greenland Ice Cap. This project was not only ambitious but also showcased a range of innovative construction techniques that have informed cold region engineering practices to this day.

Camp Century was constructed using a “cut-and-cover” method where trenches were dug into the ice and then covered with arched steel structures. This method was crucial in creating the protective tunnels that formed the main structure of the base. The entire facility was then insulated to protect against the extreme cold and to ensure that the heat generated within the base did not cause the surrounding ice to melt.

To support its designation as a self-sustaining underground city, Camp Century included living quarters, a kitchen, a hospital, and even a movie theater, all powered by a groundbreaking portable nuclear reactor, the PM-2A. This reactor was a critical component of the base, providing a reliable power source in an environment where traditional fuel supplies would be logistically challenging to maintain.

The base’s design and construction required innovative solutions to numerous challenges, such as the structural integrity of buildings under ice and the management of thermal effects caused by the heat generated within the base. These innovations have left a lasting impact on polar construction techniques and have been studied for their potential applications in other remote and harsh environments.

Moreover, the data and experience gained from the construction and operation of Camp Century have been invaluable in the development of future designs for ice-cap camps. This project demonstrated that subsurface ice-cap camps are both feasible and practical, and that nuclear power can significantly reduce the logistical burdens of supporting isolated, remote military facilities.

Secrets Uncovered​

The unveiling of Camp Century’s true purpose marked a significant chapter in Cold War history. For years, the world believed that Camp Century was solely a scientific research station focusing on Arctic studies and ice core sampling. In reality, it was a cover for a highly classified military operation known as Project Iceworm.

Initially portrayed as a peaceful research facility, Camp Century was publicly celebrated as a model of polar innovation and technological achievement. The facility was featured in documentaries and news articles, praising its advanced infrastructure and the potential scientific advancements it could bring.

The truth about Camp Century came to light in 1997 when the Danish Parliament published documents revealing that the base was intended to serve as an underground launch site for nuclear missiles targeted at the Soviet Union. This disclosure came as a shock to the international community, especially since Denmark had been assured that the operations at Camp Century were purely scientific.

This revelation not only strained U.S.-Danish relations but also raised significant ethical and legal questions about the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Greenland. The Danish government expressed deep concerns, as they had not consented to the militarization of their territory, which they were led to believe was being used for benign scientific purposes.

The declassification of Project Iceworm’s objectives prompted a broader discussion about the environmental impact of the military base, particularly concerning the nuclear reactor used to power the camp. Concerns were raised about the potential release of radioactive materials stored under the ice, which could emerge due to the accelerating ice melt caused by global warming.
 


Camp Century’s Effect on the Environment​

The thawing of Greenland’s ice sheet is poised to reveal the remnants of Camp Century, including hazardous materials such as low-level radioactive waste and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which are known carcinogens. This potential exposure is a significant environmental threat, as the melting ice could release these contaminants into the surrounding ecosystem and beyond.

As the ice melts, estimated projections suggest that by as early as 2090, the base could become exposed, unveiling not only the physical structure but also the environmental hazards contained within. This includes an estimated 9,200 tons of physical materials, 53,000 gallons of diesel fuel, and other toxic wastes such as PCBs, which have long-term persistence in the environment and can bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans.

The exposure of these contaminants poses not only environmental risks but also political and diplomatic challenges. The cleanup and management of this waste will require coordinated international efforts, potentially straining relationships between the United States, Denmark, and Greenland. The situation underscores the broader impacts of climate change, where thawing ice is not just a physical change but a catalyst for emerging political conflicts over accountability and environmental stewardship.

Echoes from the Ice: Reflecting on Camp Century’s Legacy​

The rediscovery and impending exposure of Camp Century not only unearths a relic of the Cold War but also reminds us of the lasting environmental impacts of human endeavors. This hidden base, once a symbol of military ingenuity, now poses significant environmental risks as the consequences of its hazardous wastes are set to re-emerge due to the warming climate. The challenges ahead are not only technical or environmental but also deeply political, involving negotiations and responsibilities that span across nations and generations.
 
If the 70k people of Greenland don't want the US there, then he won't do it. He'll have his hands full righting the sinking ship that is our country for the last 4 years. He'll be BUSY. He'll have to save Social Security which is going bankrupt under Joe Bribem in 7 years. Cutting government/government waste & abuse may not be enough to balance the checkbook. Especially with needing some wiggle room in advance, by raising the debt ceiling, temporarily. The people/politicians who created this situation don't care, as long as they can keep their power - - they'll throw their own grandkids under the bus. They'll provoke Putin with missiles into Russia's interior, escalate WW3, sell off border Wall panels, and sell off our country at bargain basement prices, ALL just to make it hard for Orange-Man to straighten things up and keep us from the slippery slope to Insolvency & Socialism/Communism.

I believe Greenland was a stop for aircraft being delivered to Europe during WWII.

In 1959, the U.S. Army built the first tunnel settlement beneath the ice of Greenland. 21 tubes were constructed with isolated housing for more than 200 soldiers. The documentary investigates this extraordinary U.S. Army plan, while looking at the consequences of the city’s tons of nuclear waste that were left behind and are now slowly emerging from the melting ice.

Here's a picture.

Here's the video.



After 6 years the Dept of Defense scrapped the project and took the mini-nuclear reactor back when they evacuated.
However, there's speculation as to remaining radiation. However, the cores removed close to the "waste" have not confirmed as positive.
It's estimated that in 70 years the glaciation of the ice will begin to reveal the camp & "project ice worm". Our grandkids will witness it.
