               If they get some spare time they will maybe be active a few
               days from Tulun (OC-256), but that is uncertain. A special
               permission is needed to be able to visit the islands, which
               as some researchers beleive belongs to those that will sink
               into the ocean in about 5 years! The expedition will be
               very expensive, ca 30.000 USD.
