Pituffik Space Base, predt\u00fdm zn\u00e1ma ako Thule Air Base, je najsevernej\u0161ia vojensk\u00e1 in\u0161tal\u00e1cia Spojen\u00fdch \u0161t\u00e1tov a jedna z najod\u013eahlej\u0161\u00edch na plan\u00e9te. Le\u017e\u00ed na severoz\u00e1padnom pobre\u017e\u00ed Gr\u00f3nska, pribli\u017ene 1200 km severne od pol\u00e1rneho kruhu a 1500 km od severn\u00e9ho p\u00f3lu. Dnes patr\u00ed pod United States Space Force a sl\u00fa\u017ei na monitorovanie vesm\u00edru, protiraketov\u00fa obranu a arktick\u00fa bezpe\u010dnos\u0165. Jej hist\u00f3ria je v\u0161ak pln\u00e1 tajomstiev studenej vojny, mas\u00edvnej v\u00fdstavby a kontroverzi\u00ed.<\/p>\n
Regi\u00f3n Pituffik (tradi\u010dn\u00fd gr\u00f3nsky n\u00e1zov) bol os\u00eddlen\u00fd Inu\u00edtmi po st\u00e1ro\u010dia. V 20. storo\u010d\u00ed ho presk\u00famal d\u00e1nsky b\u00e1date\u013e Knud Rasmussen, ktor\u00fd tu v rokoch 1910\u20131924 zalo\u017eil obchodn\u00fa stanicu a exped\u00edcie. Po druhej svetovej vojne (1946) tu USA a D\u00e1nsko spolo\u010dne postavili meteorologick\u00fa a r\u00e1diov\u00fa stanicu na monitorovanie po\u010dasia.<\/p>\n
V novembri 1950 komisia USAF odporu\u010dila v\u00fdstavbu z\u00e1kladne v Thule ako k\u013e\u00fa\u010dov\u00e9ho bodu na v\u010dasn\u00e9 varovanie pred sovietskymi bombard\u00e9rmi. V apr\u00edli 1951 podp\u00edsali USA a D\u00e1nsko Dohodu o obrane Gr\u00f3nska (na z\u00e1klade NATO), ktor\u00e1 umo\u017enila v\u00fdstavbu. Gr\u00f3nsko bolo vtedy d\u00e1nskou kol\u00f3niou, dnes auton\u00f3mnou s\u00fa\u010das\u0165ou D\u00e1nskeho kr\u00e1\u013eovstva.<\/p>\n
V\u00fdstavba pod kryc\u00edm n\u00e1zvom Operation Blue Jay<\/strong> bola jednou z najv\u00e4\u010d\u0161\u00edch tajn\u00fdch oper\u00e1ci\u00ed svojej doby \u2013 porovnate\u013en\u00e1 s Panamsk\u00fdm prieplavom. V lete 1951 pri\u0161lo 120 lod\u00ed s 300 000 tonami materi\u00e1lu, 12 000 pracovn\u00edkmi a \u0165a\u017ekou technikou. Pr\u00e1ce prebiehali nonstop po\u010das kr\u00e1tkeho arktick\u00e9ho leta, aby sa vyhli teplot\u00e1m -50 \u00b0C. Letisko a z\u00e1klad\u0148a boli hotov\u00e9 za 60 dn\u00ed. N\u00e1klady: okolo 500 mili\u00f3nov USD (vtedaj\u0161\u00edch pe\u0148az\u00ed).<\/p>\n Kontroverzn\u00fd moment: miestna inuitsk\u00e1 komunita z osady Umanak\/Dundas (Pituffik) bola n\u00e1silne vys\u0165ahovan\u00e1 na sever do Qaanaaq (Thule). Toto vys\u0165ahovanie je dodnes zdrojom kritiky a symbolizuje koloni\u00e1lne aspekty projektu.<\/p>\n V 50.\u201360. rokoch tu sl\u00fa\u017eilo a\u017e 10 000 vojakov. Z\u00e1klad\u0148a bola s\u00fa\u010das\u0165ou syst\u00e9mu DEW Line (Distant Early Warning) \u2013 radarovej siete proti sovietskym \u00fatokom. Sl\u00fa\u017eila ako medziprist\u00e1tisko pre transpol\u00e1rne lety a pre strategick\u00e9 bombard\u00e9ry Strategic Air Command (SAC). V roku 1961 dokon\u010dili BMEWS (Ballistic Missile Early Warning System) \u2013 radar na v\u010dasn\u00e9 varovanie pred balistick\u00fdmi raketami.<\/p>\n Z\u00e1klad\u0148a bola k\u013e\u00fa\u010dov\u00e1 pre oper\u00e1ciu Chrome Dome \u2013 nepretr\u017eit\u00e9 lety jadrov\u00fdch bombard\u00e9rov nad Arkt\u00eddou.<\/p>\n V roku 1983 pre\u0161la pod Air Force Space Command. V 1992 vznikla 12th Space Warning Squadron. V j\u00fani 2002 vytvorili 821st Space Base Group ako hostite\u013esk\u00fa jednotku. V roku 2020 form\u00e1lne pre\u0161la pod United States Space Force. D\u0148a 6. apr\u00edla 2023 bola ofici\u00e1lne premenovan\u00e1 na **Pituffik Space Base** \u2013 na po\u010des\u0165 gr\u00f3nskej kult\u00fary a p\u00f4vodn\u00e9ho n\u00e1zvu oblasti. Cerem\u00f3nia sa konala s \u00fa\u010das\u0165ou gr\u00f3nskych predstavite\u013eov.<\/p>\n Dnes sl\u00fa\u017ei na:<\/p>\n V kontexte klimatick\u00fdch zmien, nov\u00fdch lodn\u00fdch tr\u00e1s a geopolitickej s\u00fa\u0165a\u017ee je Pituffik k\u013e\u00fa\u010dov\u00fdm bodom NATO.
