Oamenii de \u0219tiin\u021b\u0103 de la NASA care studiaz\u0103 calotele de ghea\u021b\u0103 din Groenlanda au descoperit un \u201eora\u0219 sub ghea\u021b\u0103\u201d care a fost construit de armata american\u0103 \u00een timpul R\u0103zboiului Rece, relateaz\u0103 Space.com.<\/p>\n
\u00cen aprilie 2024, o aeronav\u0103 Gulfstream III a efectuat un zbor \u0219tiin\u021bific deasupra calotei de ghea\u021b\u0103 a Groenlandei, purt\u00e2nd instrumente radar pentru a cartografia ad\u00e2ncimea calotei de ghea\u021b\u0103 \u0219i a straturilor de roc\u0103 de sub ea. Imaginile au dezv\u0103luit o nou\u0103 vedere a Camp Century, o baz\u0103 militar\u0103 american\u0103 din perioada R\u0103zboiului Rece, const\u00e2nd dintr-o serie de tuneluri t\u0103iate chiar \u00een calota de ghea\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n
S-a dovedit c\u0103 \u00een acest \u201eora\u0219 secret\u201d a fost realizat un proiect numit Iceworm, care a presupus construirea a 4.023 de kilometri de tuneluri. Acestea puteau fi folosite pentru rachete balistice nucleare cu raz\u0103 intermediar\u0103 (IRBM, similare cu noua rachet\u0103 a lui Putin, n.red.) care s\u0103 fie lansate \u00eempotriva Uniunii Sovietice.<\/p>\n
\u201eC\u0103utam un pat de ghea\u021b\u0103 \u0219i am g\u0103sit Camp Century. La \u00eenceput, nu am \u0219tiut ce era. Noile date dezv\u0103luie unele dintre structurile ora\u0219ului secret ca niciodat\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 acum\u201d, a declarat Chad Green, cercet\u0103tor \u00een domeniul criosferei la Jet Propulsion Laboratory al NASA.<\/p>\n
Construc\u021bia bazei Camp Century a \u00eenceput \u00een 1959, dar a fost abandonat\u0103 \u00een 1967 din cauza costurilor ridicate \u0219i a dificult\u0103\u021bilor de a preveni pr\u0103bu\u0219irea tunelului \u00een stratul de ghea\u021b\u0103 \u00een continu\u0103 schimbare.<\/p>\n
Conform articolului The Iceman that Never Came (Omul de ghea\u021b\u0103 care nu a venit niciodat\u0103), publicat \u00een 2007 \u00een The Scandinavian Journal of History, proiectul Iceworm prevedea utilizarea Groenlandei de Nord ca ramp\u0103 de lansare datorit\u0103 proximit\u0103\u021bii sale fa\u021b\u0103 de Uniunea Sovietic\u0103 \u0219i a pozi\u021biei sale \u00eendep\u0103rtate.<\/p>\n
\u201eConceptul de baz\u0103 a fost de a desf\u0103\u0219ura for\u021be de rachete \u00een \u201emii de mile de tuneluri s\u0103pate \u0219i sigilate\u201d, sau mai degrab\u0103 tran\u0219ee sigilate, a c\u0103ror podea ar fi la aproximativ 8,5 metri sub suprafa\u021b\u0103\u201d, se arat\u0103 \u00een articole.<\/p>\n
Transeele au fost proiectate pentru o rachet\u0103 Minuteman IRBM modificat\u0103, cunoscut\u0103 sub numele de Iceman, care ar putea rezista presiunii unei lans\u0103ri printr-o calot\u0103 de ghea\u021b\u0103. P\u00e2n\u0103 la urm\u0103, proiectul a fost anulat, iar baza a fost abandonat\u0103. Dar dovezi ale existen\u021bei sale pot fi \u00eenc\u0103 g\u0103site sub ghea\u021ba Groenlandei.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
