It Takes More Than A Century To Freeze, About 145 Years. Many People have set out boats to find out. However, They could not survive for so long. So that is my main answer, Hoped it helped. And i am NOT lying, I researched this since i was about 8 years old. I really hope i am not wrong! Cause i been researching this stuff since who knows when. And i want to be the greatest researcher ever! Well if this is wrong then I need a little more researching I really hoped this helped. If you are doing a report i Guarantee you will do well Well see you later
