To be fair I'm not sure the weather would have permitted conventional aircraft into the area. Remember a few month s back when someone had to be flown out because of health problems? The planes couldn't land because of fuel turning to gel and other reasons. Eventually they did get the person out though.

Meanwhile I guesstimating that it's 1000-1200 miles to McMurdo or Casey. Pretty far to travel over questionable terrain.

And then I'm wondering is something potentially deadly WAS released from the lake, bacteria or otherwise, if it would be possible to make it's way to McMurdo or Casey and how long it would take.
