What?!?! That ice is supposed to be all gone. How are they getting stuck?

“What is this?” asks David Dubyne. “The third year in a row that we’ve seen climate-change scientists rescued from vessels in both the southern and northern hemispheres due to ice too thick?”

“That ice is supposed to be all gone,” says Dubyne. “How are they getting stuck? And yet, here we are. Another icebreaker stuck in unexpectedly thick Arctic ice.

“We lack even the basic observation of the climate process in the central Arctic from winter, explains the research expedition leader, Markus Rex.

“What?!?!” exclaims Dubyne. “I thought the science was settled.”
