Several years ago, river guide Steve Currey had chartered a Russian Nuclear icebreaker ship to travel into the center of the Earth via a legendary hole in the Arctic Ocean. Currey died before the trip could take place but now fringe scientist Brooks Agnew has revived the plan. From the National Post:
This time next year, Kentucky based physicist and futurist Brooks Agnew hopes to board the commercially owned Russian icebreaker Yamal in the port of Murmansk, and to sail into the polar sea just beyond Canada's Arctic islands…
Mr. Agnew is the latest in a long line of people to peddle the nutty, yet persistent, theory that humans live on the surface of a hollow planet, in which two undiscovered openings, near the North and South poles, connect the outer Earth with an interior realm…
While he insists the journey has a genuine scientific purpose, Mr. Agnew also says the expedition will include several experts in meditation, mythology and UFOs, as well as a team of documentary filmmakers…
If the polar opening isn't there, the voyage "will still make an outstanding documentary," he promises.
