Here's what the world looked like after Ice-Nine was released into the environment, crystallizing all water on Earth, locking it into the Ice-Nine configuration. "And the United States Marines would rise from the swamp and march on!"Īnd where would the freezing stop? Unfortunately, the melting point of Ice-Nine was 114.4 degrees once the entire planet locked up, it would probably never melt. "And the pools and the streams in the frozen muck?" "And all the puddles in the frozen muck?" If that Marine threw that seed into the nearest puddle.?" ".suppose, young man, that one Marine had with him a tiny capsule containing a seed of ice-nine, a new way for the atoms of water to stack and lock, to freeze. Felix Hoenikker, an original thinker, found the "outside-the-box" answer a single crystal of Ice-Nine would crystallize every bit of water it touched. Is it possible to get rid of mud?
