Yeah it was the name of a thousands of years old hunting village inhabited by the Inuits. When the US got permission to build Thule AFB the Inuit got forced removed.
I had that thought in my head a minute ago when I saw the view of the base....then I realized their mission is probably incredible and im sure the base has heat!
The auto-start feature in my truck, is by far my favorite feature. And I thought the heated steering wheel was a bit over the top, but I won't buy another vehicle without both. Heated Seats are as important to me as AWD.
Can't wait to move somewhere warm .... If I never see another snowflake, I'll be just fine.
The DEW LINE IS THE “DISTANT EARLY WARNING” MISSILE LAUNCH DETECTION system to identify missile launches from Russia. It has been in place since the 1950’s. my father’s twin brother worked there.
This is a term used in the book Softwar which is written by US Space Force Major Jason Lowrey. The book is about Bitcoin and how it is a weapon we should all be learning about
They are located in the Thule AFB which we've had there since 1943. It's been renamed Pituffik Space Base.
I had to check to make sure that "Pituffik" was real. It is. Did Biden name it during one of his tofu-for-brains sessions?

Ahahaha, I was just about to comment similar things. Nothing is a coincidence my friends.
This does not surprise me. I'd bet we have more of a presence up there than most people think and that is a good thing.
1943... Thule Society. Am I the only one that gets a German Nazi sensation with this? I don think I knew it was renamed.
Radar dome?
Pfft... That's a popcorn popper!

Off subject here, but any idea what that clip is from?
Being that Marty Feldman is in it it's gotta be worth a watch...kek
I think it's Mel Brooks Silent Movie
It is indeed!
TY.....
Can you imagine the delight to being appointed to join the new Space Force?
Then the realization that you are going to be stationed in Greenland ....
