At one of the research stations in Antarctica, there was a tragic incident with US citizens. The report of the National Science Foundation of the USA states that at the facility where the generator that feeds the radio station, two people died. We are talking about McMurdo hired workstations, who were engaged in ensuring the fire safety of facilities. They represented the technical staff of Leidos.

At the station in Antarctica killed two US citizens




According to the latest data, the mission staff inspected fire extinguishing systems. All this time, a helicopter was waiting near the premises. After a long absence, the pilot suspected something was wrong and went for the staff. Inside the generator room, he found them dead. And all the information is published exactly from the words of the helicopter of the helicopter.

The report notes that an investigation was initiated into the causes of death of US citizens at the largest Antarctic research station. It is noted that there is no reason to suspect the commission of a murder. In McMurdo, more than a thousand people live and work on a permanent basis.

In the US media in the meantime, stated that the staff of the fire mission could die from electric shock. Other details related to the tragedy in Antarctica, at the moment is not published.

For reference: McMurdo station was founded in 1956 year, is located on the ocean - 5 km from the New Zealand Scott station. The average air temperature at the station in the summer (for the southern hemisphere) December is about -2 Celsius. Annual average temperature - 16,6. The station has its own airfield.

        There must be a doctor at the station, and with such a population of doctors there are probably several doctors, so the preliminary reason for the deaths should already be known.

That is, the very ones who provided those who pressed the buttons and made decisions are not to blame for anything.
        The essence of their work is to protect the life of not others, but specifically their others. So that those, for example, calmly and comfortably kill completely different ones.
        Whatever the United States does, in Antarctica, anywhere and anything. If they are our enemies, and now this is the case - all that they do is either a direct threat to us or creates the preconditions for its strengthening.
        By the way, they themselves treat us that way, regardless of whether we woke up from a political dope or not.

          They were peaceful, but they were called and ordered.

          My friend, the speech is that the Americans want us Russians to suffer. And I do not care which of them is a profession. They have chosen for themselves the leaders whom we Russians call our enemies.
          They are the inhabitants of the United States, our enemies. All.
          And that is their choice.

They said on TV that all the "s" bloodthirsty ki-so it is. He is no different from the same crest that laughs at the deaths of children in Russia, because he (the crest) also sincerely believes that we are enemies and that missiles will fly at them.

                NATO has always been at our borders at all times of the USSR, only then was there a certain buffer from the countries of Eastern Europe. Now this buffer is not. Why - because of Russia's mediocre policy towards the western countries of the former USSR. And here some Hitler recalls, like he is not sorry, so why should they spare the simple American hard workers, like we have a war and all that. Well then, we conduct business with the USA, family members in Western countries and the USA, including our politicians and oligarchs, live, students from one country to another wind up. Is that a war? Once again, these are political games, so you need to have your own head, and not just absorb the information that is supplied. And by the way, if this is a war, the Americans are enemies and all things, then what is the Supreme Commander of the RF Armed Forces calling them partners?

                  NATO’s East Movement is what? While there were oaths that there would be no promise? The concept of the Cold War is stupid! War is either there or not. And this war did not even begin 100 years ago, dear.
                  And if you turn on your brains and look at the same WWII, ask yourself one question - why did Hitler capture the European countries, and the population after the capture did not destroy in batches, and waged a total destruction war with the USSR.
                  After the war, most of the generals of the SS and Abwehr did not tell where? What regimes are inciting the USA around the world?
                  Do you recall the reasons for the US war with Vietnam? Banal deception and forgery of the testimony of the military marines. The result is 8 years of war, 2 million civilians killed and half a million military from Vietnam. 55 thousand US troops. Why did the war in Vietnam happen? According to US politicians, what was there was a threat to US security. What threat was there for America there?
                  Iraq. The same deception and millions of corpses.
                  We are also a threat to the United States. But as with Vietnam they will not succeed. Since we stupidly multiply by zero. Therefore, the war is not direct, but economic, sanctions, political, etc.
                  These are not political games, dear, but war, no more no less.

Putin more or less behaved with dignity in foreign policy, because of this they began to be afraid of us, and since we did not find a firm answer to expanding NATO and deploying American bases and other ugliness, the Americans began to become impudent. But, I strongly doubt that these two dead Americans were concerned about Russia, that in a dream they saw how they were killing Russians, and so on.

Therefore, each enemy's face, which did evil to my fellow citizens and fell into the hands of a living one, will atone for its guilt with interest. The feeling of justice and love for one's neighbor easily degenerates in the Russian soul into fierce ruthlessness in relation to the enemy and himself.
          And at the same time, every person, regardless of his religion and nationality, who devotes his life (in the literal or figurative sense) to the care of others, deserves the highest respect.

There 220 (or whatever they have) should only come to the power supply, and in the absence of an external system, the system should work for a long time from the battery - because they are all low-current, so that there is less consumption.
        If the gas system worked abnormally, then there should have been sensors to detect this business and the alarm would turn on.

          According to the latest data, mission employees inspected fire extinguishing systems.

          It is clear that not everyone can be killed by a battery, but what they did there, how they had power systems, what they touched, where and how, in the article zero, what for these fortunetelling. I have a version that they checked the power systems, touched and closed that something was wrong or closed them ....

      "If freon, then ..." (c)
      99,9% - there, in the diesel, there is a gas fire extinguishing system. Moreover, technologically, when the system is triggered, the doors and shutters of the heat exchangers are forcedly closed and locked, and then the valves of the gas cylinders are opened. But there is a "gap" in time between each event: first, for 10 seconds, the siren sounds, then the doors begin to close, then there is another 5 seconds before the lock is activated (this is when the horizontal emergency door handles stop working). Then everything! And, and if a person was inside at this moment and, for some reason, did not manage to leave the room, then he has no chance of staying alive.
      Service workers, coming to such an object, usually switch the power supply circuit of the cylinder pyropatron to the simulator (so that the system does not "scream") and put the mount in the doorway. This, of course, is a violation of the procedures, and the Americans are slaves to the procedures, but, on the other hand, it saves the life of the staff.

        Very few aircraft are approved for flights to Antarctica in terms of environmental performance and ski gear. Of the large ones, these are the American military transporters. They fly out of Adelaide (Australia) and go to McMurdo. This station, if you want, is the Antarctic International Airport, and at the same time, an American checkpoint at the entrance to this continent. Perhaps this explains the number of staff. On the other hand, American scope. They also have about 200 people at the Amundsen-Scott base, which is located at the geographical point of the south pole.

    Firefighters in the electric power section - flattery is prohibited - are firefighters, not electricians. But at the expense of fire extinguishers! We usually fill with carbon dioxide. But with what they are and with what additives. Example: I received a brand new P-142 N, on it were two fire extinguishers, imported, like Iranian. My station stood about 100 meters from the ZKP, I got data from TAI -43 from there, I broadcast them. Boredom, well, I decided to try it in the back compartment, for that time (81 g) - a curiosity - a pistol on a cylinder, a pressure gauge, a chica - it acts like an automatic machine - pushed with a jab - a shot. shot three times in flies and !!! into a Bosko it was blown away - like 400 vodka on an empty stomach, then overwhelmed with horror - a spasm of a breather, I rushed from the compartment to the street, opening the door - the leaves on the trees as in a cartoon to the beat of the generator (AB-O - 230) - I'm back and began to look for a place to hide after 10 minutes let go. Then he coughed for a week, like a cold. Only three zilch. Maybe there when checking, a similar leak was an overdose.

    And what does the news have to do with military review? Every day thousands of people die from accidents, so what? I've just arrived from Chukotka. For almost a year there he was engaged in geodetic substantiation of the construction of power lines Bilibino-Peschanka, Bilibino-Pevek (where the floating nuclear power plant will be driven), worked for the Moscow company EnergoSpetsRemont.
    Over this time:
    1. The excavator fell into the abyss - the pilot and two people "on the armor" were killed.
    2. The bulldozer drove into the overpass, turned over - the bulldozer was handed out (though he was drunk).
    3. In the spring, during the flood, three people drove MTLB from base to base. While crossing Bolshaya Anyui, the all-terrain vehicle sank. The all-terrain vehicle was carried away by the current, and was never found. The other two swam out and spent ten days on the island. They ate nettles ... the Ministry of Emergencies refused to look for them, citing lack of fuel. The firm hired a private helicopter. Even when they were found on the 10th day, the Ministry of Emergency Situations refused to take off, since they did not have a "cradle" and other equipment ...
    4. A pile of logs "untied" and one worker got his head smashed. Died on the way to the hospital ...
    5. In September, one of the bases caught fire in the trailer. Instead of shift wagons, the company uses sheathed chipboard containers with cut windows. They pulled out one shift worker, the second burned down ...
    Total, a little more than half a year 7 corpses. Apart from injuries and frostbite ...
    None of the leaders were even given a reprimand. All incidents are jammed. The company continues to build power lines! Nowhere, no one wrote about it!
    And you're talking about some two Americans ...
