Rumors Of US Evacuation In
Antarctica - Russia Helping?

What's happening at Antartica?
According to inside Aussie news reports, the US has decided to evacuate
its base at McMurdo in the Antartic and has requested the Russians to
also send its icebreaker the 'Krasin' to assist evacuation. The Krasin,
which I believe is one of their biggest, is reported to be presently
south of the equator under full steam to meet a US icebreaker. The story
goes that 2 large icebergs are grounded in McMurdo Bay preventing
supplies reaching the Base.
There's something wrong with that story.
This time of the year is favorable for all manner of activity at
Antartica. The Russian tourist ship the icebreaker 'Kapitan Khlebnikov'
is probably at the Antartic with tourists now. Or at least it is capable
of cancelling the tourists and rushing from its permanent dock in New
Zealand or Tasmania to evacuate staff.
These big icebreakers are probably engaged to remove huge quantities of
instruments and people. Why are they rushing to remove instruments,
equipment, etc, and people??
It is doubtfull that the grounded 2 icebergs would halt supplies. What is
incoming...might be a good question with this story??
I am suspecting, more than anything incoming, is that ice is shearing off
the Antartic land mass and the Base is draining out to sea.

Russian, US Icebreakers To Help McMurdo In Antarctica
December 30, 2004
ST. PETERSBURG (Interfax-Northwest) - The Krasin icebreaker of Russia and
an icebreaker of the U.S. Coast Guard will start a joint operation to
help the U.S. McMurdo station in Antarctica on January 20, head of the
Russian Antarctica expedition Valery Lukin told Interfax on Thursday.
"Five icebergs have run aground near the station and ice cannot flow out
from the bay. The ice is 3.5 meters thick in the bay, and the station
supply is difficult," Lukin said.
McMurdo is the largest station in Antarctica, which can host about 5,000
people at the same time.
