Is astronaut Bruce mccandless related to chris mccandless who died in the Alaska wilderness?
No i do not believe that Bruce is any relation to Chris because Bruce McCandless because Bruce is my great grandfather's brother or cousin or something. The reason I don't think he is related is because my great grandfather changed his last name to McCandlis and he was an only child so if he had any offspring their last name would be McCandlis like mine.
Is there a bridge from Russia to Alaska?
Being in the service (Army), and having a father who is a pilot, I have had some experience from crossing in to Russia, from Alaska. I have been living in Anchorage, AK since the age of 2, and loved it ever since. There are a few choices when crossing into Russia. The first being is to take a plane up to the highest point of Alaska, and from there take a small fishing boat to Russia. The second is take a commercial jet from Anchorage, to Russia. The third is take a ferry service and go on from there.
Now when you take into consideration the cost's it tends to be expensive. The least amount of time, and costly option is to take a commercial jet liner. My father is a pilot so if I wanted to go to Hong Kong, all I have to do is pay $ 50.00 for a round trip ticket. However, I am very fortunate person to be.
The best option that is the cheapest, but takes more time to look into is the first option. By dealing with small privet businesses, there are many ways to get the best deal.
In all consideration take into account the amount of time, and your budget. I hope this has at least answered part of your question, and don't forget to apply for a visa from Russia (Don't want of course to be sent back to the States, when You put so much time and effort into it).

Weighing up to 1400 pounds, the Moose is the largest deer in the world. It is dark brown, with gray legs, an overhanging snout, a long dewlap or beard hanging from the throat, and a shoulder hump. Males grow massive, flat antlers with small prongs projecting from the borders. Elk and Caribou have pale rumps and lack the long face and snout. The Moose occurs in northern forests, where it is often seen feeding on water plants far out in ponds and lakes. In winter it feeds on twigs, bark, and saplings. It is a fast swimmer, and on land it can run as fast as 35 mph. The rust-colored young lack the white spots of other deer fawns. Found across Canada and Alaska, the northern Rockies, upper Midwest, and northern New England. Best seen in the following parks: Baxter(Maine), Algonquin, Isle Royale, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Glacier, Banff, Jasper, and Denali.

Was Antarctica warmer during the time of the dinosaurs?
Yes, during the time of the dinosaurs there were no icecaps at the poles. Although Antarctica was still over the South Pole at the time, its climate was cool temperate.
This was partly due to CO2 levels (which were about five times today's), and partly because South America and Australia were then joined to Antarctica, forcing warm ocean currents down from the tropics -- unlike today where the Antarctic Circumpolar Current thermally isolates the continent from the rest of the world.
