NASA Quacks
NASA already has James Hansen and Gavin Schmidt, but still no sign of the 90 rubber ducks that were sent down a drainage hole in the Greenland ice in September.
According to the BBC News website, the ducks are an experiment to see how melt waters find their way to the base of the ice sheet.
It was hoped the ducks would flow along subglacial channels and eventually pop out into the sea. They may still, but nothing has been seen of them so far.
“We haven’t heard anything from them yet,” said Nasa’s Alberto Behar. “If somebody does find one, it will be a great breakthrough for us.”
