Sat, 04 Sep 2010 21:20:03 +0200 (Reuters) - The MV Nordic Barents moves from the Norwegian town of Kirkenes September 4, 2010. The MV Nordic Barents is lugging 40,000 tonnes of iron ore from Norway to China on an Arctic Ocean shortcut through melting ice -- and making a little history in the process. Steaming east along Russia's desolate northern coast, the ship departed on Saturday as the first non-Russian commercial vessel to attempt a non-stop crossing of a route that skirts the receding Arctic ice cap.
