NOVA | Arctic Dinosaurs

NOVA takes viewers on an exciting Arctic trek as one team of paleontologists attempts a radical "dig" in northern Alaska, using explosives to bore a 60-foot tunnel into the permafrost in search of fossil bones. Both the scientists and the filmmakers face many challenges while on location, including plummeting temperatures and eroding cliffs prone to sudden collapse. Meanwhile, a second team of scientists works high atop a treacherous cliff to unearth a massive skull, all the while battling time, temperature, and voracious mosquitoes.

what a crock! I saw fossel coral on rail road bedding going up to Hudson bay canada telling me that it was tropical up there.. maybe itwas nearer the equator?

The air was twice as thick..

...sounds coo

[KnowIsNotBelieving]

That was such an asinine statement.

Scientist are the ones that came up with the Theory of Pole Shift...

So how can they "believe that the poles were always the way they are now?"

[teslaphysics]

Yes they can shift again. Soon, is what I think. No global warming pollution man-made farce, but a climate change do to a polar shift. It ain't goin to happen overnight, but its already in the process. Hence the ice in the caps melting, and the whole temperature-natural disaster thingee. Google it...

[teslaphysics]

Maybe they survived because there was no ice in the "Arctic" at the time. Ever hear of a "Polar Shift"? What makes scientist believe that the Poles were always were they are now?
