Dr. Joseph Torres, a University of South Florida marine biologist and a St. Petersburg resident, is the chief scientist on a seven-week National Science Foundation expedition to Antarctica to research the dramatic decline of a key player in the food chain. The Antarctic silverfish has disappeared from a significant part of its range. The suspected perpetrator is global warming. View our Antarctic Special Report, including video, maps and photos.

Our theme for today is ice. Big ice.

We left our southernmost sampling area at Charcot Island and headed north toward Marguerite Bay, with a scheduled stop in a small bay named Lazarev to look for Adelie penguins and sample for silverfish. We were stopped in our tracks by a fleet of icebergs.

To say that icebergs are a hazard to navigation is severely understating the case; even strong icebreakers like the Palmer would not survive a close encounter with a berg.

    Water is one of the few (if only?) substances that expands as it freezes. As it expands, there's not more of it, it's just taking up more space (more air between the molecules). Ice is less dense then water, therefore it it floats.

    its all about trying to locate 1 of the 2 major entrances to INNER EARTH! although there are many entrances around the world, the 2 largest are located near the poles. Germany was the 1st to occupy an underground city (New Berlin) the southern pole region in the 1930′s. RESEARCH *HOLLOW EARTH THEORY*. It should answer most q’s about ufo’s & “aliens” along with ancient human & non-human beings & the plans behined the secret societies & gov’s of this world. This is part of mankind’s destiny.
