Fort Prince of Wales-Hudsons Bay, Churchill Inside and helicopter views

There were other reasons for Churchill to exist apart from the port. They also had an American rocket range doing atmospheric research including Northern Light research. I heard they developed "chaff" there, the technique for fooling radar guided missles. Black Brant was the biggest missle there I think. Also the longest paved runway in North America (?) for military aircraft. Early warning for incoming Russian missles was probably there too. And a military base in the 50's.
