Why in Australia there is no water?

How to irrigate the land? What if ... If the "pumped" chunks of Antarctic ice in Australia? This original draft of the ice of Antarctica suggested that the English scientist AP Pedrick. In the opinion of the scientist, blocks of ice can be "transported" from Antarctica to Australia via a pipeline laid at a depth of forty-five meters beneath the surface of the Indian Ocean. At this depth, the pipeline does not become an obstacle to navigation. Diameter pipes scientist offers no less than three meters. And the pipeline itself may consist of one, two, three threads, connected by a bundle. Pipeline length - 4500 km. But what about the block of ice will float on such "ldoprovodu? Scientist proposes to push the ice through the pipes with compressed air. According to one thread for the year will be transported to Australia so much water that it will be enough to irrigate 400,000 hectares of land. Although this project looks fantastic, it was approved by many experts. Believe that there are real opportunities for its implementation. The economic effect it is huge. Does not that extraordinarily ambitious project, a fantasy? And I would like to invite everyone who loves to argue, to dream, to fantasize, to send to the Club Why Why their most incredibly fantastic projects. To dream and fantasize about the sea, mountains and forests. And of course, about the cosmos! And now let me and I remember a story that once happened to me. Already getting dark when I'm extremely tired, barely holding onto the saddle, returned home. My horse now and then stumbled, falling asleep and waking up on the fly. Suddenly she shuddered and reared. I jumped to the ground. O horror! Rattlesnake! Without delay, I drew his sword and ... put it down. Do away with the snake would have been for me a matter of one second, but I am a man of courage and pretended that was not afraid of her. Somehow calmed the horse, I set off. A snake? Timidly crept to the side. Newcomers Club of our skeptical smile, questioning everything that comes from the hectic chatterbox Munchausen. I'm not offended. On the contrary, I foresaw this, and thus bring to your attention the story of Nikolai Alexandrovich Satarov.
