Though the stricken ship has fuel for 45 days, it began to ration its food supplies. The rescuers worried about ice storms and the lack of daylight at this time of year in Antarctica. The South Africans are taking two military helicopters on the voyage to ferry fuel and food to the stranded ship. An Argentine icebreaker was also heading from Buenos Aires to help.
