Current Event

My article is about 30 researchers are trapped at a installation in Antarctica. It is on USA Today. “A specially equipped plane from the U.S. Antarctic Program will fly to the rescue of 30 researchers trapped at an Australian station on the frozen continent after an icebreaker poised to bring them home ran aground in a blizzard.” The rescue plane is american made and is strongly equipped for rescue missions such as this. “The American plane, an LC130, is equipped with skis for ice landings. The plane will scoop up 30 expeditioners from Davis research station, the most southerly of Antarctic stations, and deposit them at an airstrip-equipped station “in the coming days” — presumably when the weather is more agreeable — the Australian Antarctica Division said. From there a more conventional Airbus owned by the Australians can whisk them home.”
