Is Halley VI fakery being "decommissioned"? -- SHUT DOWN IN PROGRESS

Until I can verify this Halley VI as real in more ways than a Youtube video and the say-so of "authorities", I'm going to reserve judgement on its existence. Jungle Surfer has pointed out some inconsistencies in the presentation of other stations on his youtube channel. Although I have not concluded anything, I think I have to now be careful, in 2017, that the circumference of Antarctica I plan to measure by doing a virtual tour of what-I-originally-thought-were-real-research-stations, is tempered by some double checking of the very existence of these stations. This one in particular, Halley VI, seems a bit unbelievable what-with-it's hydraulic lift legs and overall worm-crawl across the ice. It seems more like "science-fiction" than reality. Take a look.

BIG (fake?) NEWS FOR HALLEY
It turns out that this month, everyone is being evacuated because of a big crack in the ice that Halley's worm-station can't out-crawl. So their entire premise of crawling along to save their station is bogus apparently. You "CAN" certainly "make-this-stuff-up". I read science fiction for years. And this is this STUFF of sci fi.

Crack in the Brunt ice shelf - drone footage by British Antarctic Survey - YouTube

Published on Jan 16, 2017

UAV (unmanned airborne vehicle) flight along a crack in the Brunt Ice Shelf, which appeared. This was detected by scientists in October 2016.

Halley VI station (https://www.bas.ac.uk/polar-operation...) is in the final stages of being relocated 23 km from its present site to put it upstream of a previously dormant ice chasm that began to show signs of growth in 2012.

In October 2016, a second crack appeared some 17 km to the north of the research station. Since then glaciologists have monitored the growth of this crack using a network of GPS instruments that measure the deformation of the ice, together with European Space Agency satellite imagery, ground penetrating radar, and on-site drone footage, which show that the recent changes to the Brunt Ice Shelf have not been seen before.

This second crack is shown in this video. Learn more on our website: https://www.bas.ac.uk/media-post/hall...

The team has just nine weeks to move the research station, before the harsh winter sets in. The base will be broken up into its eight modules and moved further inland by large tractors. Scientific research w UK completes Antarctic Halley base relocation - YouTube Published on Feb 2, 2017 UK completes Antarctic Halley base relocation The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has completed the move of its Halley research station. The base is sited on the floating - and moving - Brunt Ice Shelf, and had to be relocated or face being dumped in the ocean. Tractors were used to tow the eight modules that make up the futuristic-looking Halley 23km further "inland". BAS is now in the process of reorganising all this research to take account of the forthcoming shutdown. Although automatic weather stations can continue to collect their data on solar and battery energy, pretty much all other experiments will have to be suspended. Of the 16 people who would ordinarily expect to over-winter at Halley, three will now work out of the UK's Rothera station on the Antarctic Peninsula instead. Another individual will go to King Edward Point station on South Georgia. All the others will come back to BAS HQ in Cambridge. Halley will be re-opened in November - the start of the next summer season.

February 2017. British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has successfully relocated Halley VI Research Station to its new home on the Brunt Ice Shelf. It took 13 weeks to move the world's first fully relocatable research facility 23 km across the ice. The largest module (A module - living space) is seen her successfully making its way slowly to its new location on Brunt Ice Shelf.
