À propos de ce contenu audio

 Beneath the endless, frozen expanse of Greenland’s ice sheet, the U.S. Army built a secret nuclear city. But was "Camp Century" just a peaceful research station, or the cover for something far more audacious and dangerous? This is the story of Project Iceworm, a clandestine plan to hide hundreds of missiles under the ice, pointed at the Soviet Union. This episode delves into the astonishing reality of a functioning military base tunneled deep into the ice, powered by a portable nuclear reactor and housing hundreds of soldiers. We explore how it began with a polite request to Denmark for a scientific outpost, masking a breathtaking geopolitical gambit. The project pushed engineering to its limits in one of the most hostile environments on Earth, all while operating under a veil of absolute secrecy. Listen to uncover how this frozen fortress was ultimately betrayed not by spies, but by the ice itself, and how its forgotten legacy is resurfacing today in unexpected ways. Discover the Cold War’s most chilling architectural marvel—a city designed to vanish without a trace. #ProjectIceworm #CampCentury #ColdWar #Greenland #SecretBase #NuclearHistory #ArcticMilitary #Engineering Hosted by Ibnul Jaif Farabi.
