Norwegian ‘Send of Fools’ remains to be growing right into a foolish case of deficient making plans.

From Pals of WUWT from Norway

he Norwegian privately owned expedition vessel «Lance» was once used to ‘rescue’ two polar ‘explorers’, the well known Borge Ousland and Mike Horn, from the arctic floating ice box. They rendezvous’ed with the vessel about 100 km from the ice edge, simply north of Svalbard on eighth of December. The 2 ‘explorers’ had in fact deliberate to be taken on board a crusing vessel, after having entered onto the floating ice, in August, north of Alaska.

The 2 guys had long past by means of skis to the North Pole after which persevered against the southern ice edge at the Atlantic aspect of the floating ice. On the other hand, they encountered storms that transported the floating ice in opposition to their deliberate route, and arrived a few weeks later than deliberate. Due to this fact they employed «Lance» to select them up as an alternative of the crusing vessel. The entire concept with the expedition was once to turn out how skinny the ice is within the polar ocean. Which means that the target was once in fact to underline climatic alarmism.

However, what they’ll have no longer recognized, is this time of yr is the time of maximum ice accretion within the Arctic ocean, and on their go back voyage against the ice edge and open water, the ice floes iced up and changed into cast. The «Lance» changed into firmly caught within the ice, about 80 kilometers from the ice edge and is now totally caught.

The newest knowledge from the lame vessel, is that the captain on board, Mr. Stig Roaldsand, in step with the newspaper VG (see: https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/BR2Wd0/kaptein-paa-lance-vil-evakuere-mann-om-bord-faar-nei-fra-hrs?utm_source=vgfront&utm_content=row-6) has demanded that every one ‘passengers’ and un-necessary other people on board the vessel will likely be lifted off by means of helicopter once imaginable (Supply journalist: Oda Leraan Skjetne, VG). On the other hand, the 2 ‘explorers’ refuse to depart the vessel by means of helicopter, almost certainly because it destroys the narrative in their adventure. There’s a pending storm from snow coming to the world north of Svalbard round Christmas Eve, and this makes heli-transport inconceivable at the moment.
