ANTARCTICA TRAPPED SHIP

epa04006192 Passengers of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition from the Akademik Shokalskiy are evacuated by helicopter, 02 January 2014. All 52 passengers aboard Akademik Shokalskiy, a research ship icebound in the Antarctic for more than a week have been rescued by a Chinese helicopter and taken to an Australian polar icebreaker, maritime authorities said Thursday. The 22 crew members of the Russian-flagged MV Akademik Shokalskiy remain on board the ship, which has been stranded since December 24, about 2,800 kilometres south of Hobart, Tasmania. A helicopter rescue was the last option left for the passengers after French, Chinese and then Australian icebreakers failed to smash through more than 20 kilometres of pack ice to free the Shokalskiy.
