By the time you figure what the cost of this is, (getting rubber ducks, team to a remote spot in Greenland, airfares, freight charges, Helicopter rental, hotel charges, per diem, wages, benefits, etc,etc) we could have saved the mortgages of twenty Americans...
They really should have used brass monkeys.
They all went to Hell.
Call PETA, NASA is abusing rubber ducks.
Stories like this really quack me up.....
Gonna pose a real problem for scientists in the distant future when they start turning up in deep (old) ice core samples.
Perhaps my conservative hidden base idea is being done. After hearing that Russian subs used to hide under the arctic ice pack undetected during the cold war I came up with this.
A rich conservative buys a Russian nuke submarine or builds his own. With a select crew they build a secret small underwater base under the ice sheet for the crew and their family. As soon as possible they expand and build underwater towns using nuclear power and underwater mining as resources. They build a fleet of attack submarines to keep the cities secret and to defend them from outside liberal forces if discovered.
More and more conservatives disappear to Galt’s Gulch under the ice cap and within 100 years the liberals on the surface of the planet has returned their civilization to the stone age. We then return to the surface and retake control.
