In The True History, a tale written in the 2nd century A.D. by the satirist and onetime lawyer, Lucian of Samosata, a ship with a 50-man crew is caught in an Atlantic storm, carried aloft and sent, sail billowing, on a journey to the moon.

If the mountain of ice was large enough-say 85 million tons-and wrapped in insulating plastic, it would shrink by no more than 20% along the way, providing enough water...
