Cool! Disgusting! Wow! Project Iceworm seems like the exact type of irresponsible shit I've come to expect from the USA in the 60's. I particularly like the part about ecological impact: Holy fuck, that trucker story. Your dad sounds like a real character. I almost love your description of how he told the story more than the story itself! I can't imagine how shook that trucker felt driving away from him. As far as "False-Alarm Nuclear Accidents" go, this is a pretty funny one :) Fuck am I glad that my lifestyle never puts me in contact with highly radioactive material. Everything you've shared in this thread could come straight from a horror film."...all he had to do was pop a turd in his mouth and squeeze it out through his teeth like toothpaste."
When the camp was decommissioned in 1967, its infrastructure and waste were abandoned under the assumption they would be entombed forever by perpetual snowfall. A 2016 study found that the portion of the ice sheet covering Camp Century will start to melt by the year 2100, if current trends continue. When the ice melts, the camp’s infrastructure, as well as any remaining biological, chemical and radioactive waste, will re-enter the environment and potentially disrupt nearby ecosystems.
