They have been drilling so much holes in the ice no wonder it have cracks in it.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73698905


It is not....its a fissure that has been dormant for 35 years and recently has begun to expand, a natural ice chasm and certainly not new. The ice shelf that the Research Station is built upon is over 400 feet thick and the station was placed there intentionally so they could study the chasm. The station is designed to be moved and they started the process to move the station over two years ago in the Antarctic summer of 2015...it is a slow moving ice chasm and poses no threat to any of the station personnel most of whom leave the station every year before the winter begins.

For more than 60 years, British researchers have monitored changes in the world’s atmosphere from a remote lab in Antarctica.

Now, for the first time ever, this facility will close, at least temporarily, to protect the safety of its residents.

The NewsHour’s Julia Griffin explains.

This article (Antarctic Research Station Is Being Evacuated Due To New Threat) is free and open source.

The eighty-eight scientists based at the Halley VI Research Station in East Antarctica have been obliged to abandon for several months because of a huge crack in the ice which has doubled in length in the space of fewer than three months.

Ironically enough, the decision to evacuate all personnel from the research station comes only a few weeks after the facility had been forced to relocate because of another giant chasm which was capable of cutting the entire building off from the ice shelf and sending it floating into the ocean. The Halley VI station is equipped to deal with relocation. The research pod is comprised of eight different segments which can be taken apart and towed to a safe location on ski-fitted hydraulic legs.

However, before the scientists could even finish the relocation operation, they were forced to admit to admit defeat following the emergence of an even more treacherous crack. The new crack, which is referred to as the Halloween crack as it was discovered on the 31st October has doubled in size since the researchers first discovered it. It currently stands at a length of 44 kilometers, and researchers have no idea as to how long it will become. While the team thinks that it is unlikely that the crack will sever an iceberg from the ice shelf, they consider the situation far too unpredictable to justify a continued presence at the research station at this current time. Sixteen of the research scientists were scheduled to stay over the winter months in Antarctica. During the months of winter, the station temperatures can fall to 55 degrees Celcius and researchers operate in twenty-four-hour darkness, so this particular mission is not for the faint-hearted. However, despite the researchers involved, the team have decided that the cracks are too dangerous and they will not be permitted to stay. If something were to happen to a researcher or the station itself the wintry conditions might make a rescue attempt impossible. To ensure that the station does not miss any valuable information during this period the British Antarctic Survey plan to run climate-monitoring equipment throughout the winter months. "What we've decided is that given the unpredictability, combined with our inability to do anything about it in winter – no aircraft in the continent, it's dark, it's very cold, all those kinds of issues – then actually the prudent thing to do is withdraw our staff, close the station down in a controlled manner and then go back in next summer, "said British Antarctic Survey director of operations, Tim Stocking. "Bringing them home for winter is a prudent precaution given the changes that our glaciologists have seen in the ice shelf in recent months."

Funny how having snow, pile atop snow that piles atop snow...

Crushes the snow down to ice, and how that ice then cracks from all the weight.

Yet, we all assume it's from heating.

When in actuality, heating would cause the upper layers to melt and form a more solid surface.
 Quoting: Deplorable First Born Son


Actually, ocean water that is 1 degree warmer is ocean water that will carve out that much more ice underneath. Making a larger ice shelf, hanging over the ocean.

Along the boundaries, what was once displaced ice holding it all up is now ocean water.


That's how warming causes cracks like this.

Fake science..

Pseudoscience, things that logically may be real but are not proven either way by scientific method.

That is what denial to science is, a pseudoscience.

Any news that is more than 30 seconds old is obviously old news to some, So F-n What!
Get a life and give me a break.

(Geesh)

I see you all were Johnny on the Spot in reporting on it.

Meh, so what you say, not interesting?
The fact that they are EVACUATING the Research Lab, AFTER Heads of State were down visiting isn't even remotely interesting?

Fine,

Thanks for the bump anyways
