Out of curiosity, where is this thing today? Abandoned in Antartica? Or did they bring it back for the scrap metal value? Or did it make it to a museum?

(Late edit after some Googling. Thanks wikipedia!) It was last seen in 1958. At that time, it was buried under 20 feet of snow. Has not been seen since. Good chance it was either taken by the USSR, or fell through the ice during a particularly large ice break in 1963.
