Brett & Group,
That "Ice Station" you are referring to is McMurdo Station, Antarctica.
It was powered for a L-O-N-G time by the PM-3A nuclear power plant.
I was decommissioned FINALLY about 1980.

That's quite a story!
In a similar vein, I remember reading about an
ice station powered by a nuclear reactor in qst or CQ.
I don't remember if it was the north or south pole, but
they showed pictures of the reactor.
I wonder whatever happened to it!
