Secret US military base hidden 100ft under Greenland where nuclear missiles were kept Approximately 100 feet below the surface of Greenland, is a secret American military base which used to be the home of a nuclear missile project.
In the 1960s, a secret American military base underneath Greenland was home to a nuclear missile project and Project Iceworm — a network of complex tunnels and railways tracks that could house and transport around 600 nuclear missiles.
In response to The Guardian’s request for comment on the matter, Arthur Schwartz, a political operative and friend of the president-elect’s son, commented: “Do you think Donald Trump Jr was wandering around Greenland inviting homeless people … to lunch, or do you realise that the suggestion sounds so beyond the pale ridiculous that you should feel stupid even asking the question?.
In 2016, a group of scientists evaluated the environmental impact of the abandoned facility and estimated that due to changing weather patterns over the next few decades, meltwater could allow nuclear waste to be released, including 200,000 litres of diesel fuel and 24 million litres of untreated sewage.
Whilst it wasn't exactly a secret that Camp Century was a nuclear power base, the full truth and extent of Project Iceworm was only known by a handful of people.
