I didn't even know about Mercy ships, seems like a for profit one wouldn't be too far fetched then.


I don't see why not - but then, IANAL and I don't know what legal considerations there might be for something so unusual like this. From a technical point of view, it seems realistic, assuming operational/logistical factors can be overcome (it would almost certainly have to be in transit whilst in operation, rather than stationary).


Seems like if you can kill Whales against the will of international courts, helping people wouldn't be a problem.
