Ice Breaker Gets Stuck Trying to Rescue Global Warming Scientists Trapped in Antarctic Ice



South Pole weather has stymied a rescue by a Chinese icebreaker trying to reach an expedition vessel trapped for the past four days in frozen seas, a ship officer told CNN Friday.

The Chinese icebreaker Xue Long, or Snow Dragon, was just six nautical miles away from the rescue, but now it's stuck in an Antarctica ice floe, too.

The Chinese crew is hoping a French icebreaker 14 nautical miles away will arrive and offer relief, said Zhu Li, chief officer of the Chinese ship.
But it's likely the French vessel Astrolabe will also be slowed by the polar cap's extreme frigidity, Zhu said.

Those two icebreakers -- plus a third, from Australia -- were battling the planet's coldest environment in trying to reach the stranded Russian ship MV Akademik Shokalskiy, whose 74 researchers, crew and tourists remained in good condition despite being at a frozen standstill since Monday.

Russians being saved by the Chinese, who now are going to be saved by the French........and some people think America is declining in status. Two to one that the French ram one of the ships and sink it.

The Global Warming Scientists are still stuck in the ice, that was deeper than they expected (that should tell them something).  Being Global Warming Scientists, shouldn't they have KNOWN how deep the ice is or did they not believe their own data?

LOL they knew better to beleive thier data.

Last I heard those scienstist were backing away from the global warming agenda.

I saw on the TV news that the scientists, tourists and part of the crew were out on the ice stomping down the snow to make it easier for a helicopter to land and start evacuating everyone except part of the crew.

The Global Warming Scientists are still stuck in the deep ice.

The scheduled helicopter rescue has failed for the time being as well.

Few if any of the news reports on any MSM are disclosing the irony of the scientists on the ship being there to study Global Warming.

I hope they suffer their convictions a bit longer... a little frost bite might force some objectivity.

ABC News said 52 people were rescued by helicopter today.
