Tara Polar Station

Tara Polar Station

Tara Polar Station is a French drifting scientific base aimed for Arctic Ocean expeditions and operated by the Tara Oceans Foundation and its collaborators. - Wikipedia

All the stories about this thing talk about Global Warming. Can't say as I blame them, that's how you get idiots to cough up the dough to fund this project.

Putting the global warming nonsense aside, it's a heck of a project. Imagine being stuck on this boat for 6 to 9 months with a dozen other people. It's almost as bad as being in a nuclear submarine. You can go outside, but in the middle of winter it is going to be completely black outside. It will be interesting to see how well they survive.

Wikipedia:

The National Ignition Facility (NIF) is a laser-based inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research facility, located at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California, United States. NIF's mission is to achieve fusion ignition with high energy gain. It achieved the first instance of scientific breakeven controlled fusion in an experiment on December 5, 2022, with an energy gain factor of 1.5. It supports nuclear weapon maintenance and design by studying the behavior of matter under the conditions found within nuclear explosions.
