The Insane Plan to Build an Aircraft Carrier Out of Ice Oversimlified:
At one point, a man called a meeting and said Pykrete! You take some wood, you take some ice, you put them together, you get pukrete. And then he pulled out a gun and shot some wood and it shattered, and then he shot some pykrete and the bullet ricotcheted off and hit someone else in the conference room.
And then they tried to make a pykrete aircraft carrier, but that idea was scrapped because thats a really dumb idea.

Dude Jeffrey Pike is a genius this makes total sense. All you have to do is find a really big ass flat piece of ice, and put steam turbines on it so you can move it around the Frozen sea. This would be a 10, 000 IQ idea, to have a huge mobile Island in the middle of the Antarctic ocean. You can even put dirt on top of this thing and have concrete.

I saw a thing about pykrete on Oversimplified, but it was. oversimplified.
I also didn't know that the. interesting story about the demonstration of pykrete's strength actually happened.
Thanks for extending my knowledge of this!

reply

yup, indeed it's nonsense and impossible, but what to expect for the people who living during the time world at war. that time all people being desperate struggle to avoid it and the other want to end of it.
sorry my bad english

reply

Okay but why do you want portable aircraft carriers instead of just placing static airbases at maximum intervals during the north passage where almost the entire thing is freezing year round anyway?
reply

No, it makes a lot of sense at first glance, actually. Camouflaging as an iceberg would be an excellent defense against submarines.
But sure, tell me it doesn't make any reasonable sense.

-1. 44 Britain need steel to build. SPACE SHUTTLE TANKS? Or what is that thing? (was real space shuttle tanks made of steel, sounds heavy if we don't mind the 40+ years error in time)

a wonder who the conference was

Too much mass. Too much power needed to move that mass. Too much heat generated to generate the power needed. GG.
Although with a modern nuclear/fusion generator.

People were crazy back then let me just shoot my gun it the middle of this conference room -- you can-t tell me cocaine didn-t play a part in this -

If Pykrete can deflect bullets, maybe build body armor for soldiers? Not a big ship that would be bombed and shattered anyway?

Realtalk the last bit sounded a lot like -you have to be a genius to have ideas, at least ones that are good/even work-

I was watching how strong is Pykrete against Hydraulic press and when i clicked next button this video started playing---

Mustard needs to make this video because I would love to see an animation of this thing rolling down the ocean.
