To the rescue

It only took about 10 minutes for the research vessel NATHANIEL B. PALMER to pull up its scientific instruments when the distress call came in at around 3:30 a.m. New Zealand time on Jan. 10. About 48 hours later, it had transported seven victims of a shipboard fire in the Ross Sea to the safety of McMurdo Station.
