Rising Star at Thule AB

THULE AIR BASE, Greenland – The “Rising Star” normally launches the first week in July, in preparation for port season. Thule’s deepwater port, located 750 miles north of the Arctic Circle at the Air Force’s northernmost base, is only open for two months of the year when the ice clears from North Star Bay.
