Alcuni uccelli non sono fatti per la gabbia, questa è la verità. Sono nati liberi e liberi devono essere. E quando volano via ti si riempie il cuore di gioia perché sai che nessuno avrebbe dovuto rinchiuderli.
(Dal film: Le ali della libertà)
ACE High System (Allied Command Europe High) was a Troposcatter communication system of NATO during the Cold War.
One of my most intense experiences.
This place is located on a peak of Apls. It wasn't a rational decision to climb this snow mountain without any clear path at night. After I reached halfway and then realized it is just impossible to keep going on, but it's also too dangerous to go back. I was stuck in the middle and for the first time felt extremely desperate. It ends up with I slipped down by accident for over 10 meters. Bruises and scratches all over my body are evidence of the insanity of that night.
This place is epic, but for sure I won't risk myself doing something like this again.

Skrunda-1 is a ghost town and former Soviet closed city in Latvia. It was the site of two Dnepr radar (NATO designation Hen House) installations constructed in the 1960s. Skrunda was strategically important to the Soviet Union as its radars covered Western Europe.

"My fellow Americans. Those of you who have been following the ongoing discussions around space defences will have undoubtedly heard the phrase 'Rods from God'. The feasibility and practicality of this idea has been debated for many years now. I am here to tell you that not only is it a possibility, but as of 0500 this morning, it is a reality. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of both our citizens and our allies, we have successfully launched our first 'Rods from God' prototype into the atmosphere. NATO is working hard to keep us safe, and today, we are that much safer. God bless you, God bless America, and God bless our enemies with tungsten rods."
