Take a tiny island in the South Atlantic with 40 volcanoes on it. Next, turn it into a ship by putting a garrison of Royal Marines on board. Make farmers of them and send for plants and trees from all over the world. Let loose rats, cats, and donkeys; organise consignments of barn owls and mynah birds. Finally, to all those and the giant green turtles and millions of sea birds already there, add a few million pounds' worth of electronic equipment. You then have one of the world's most important communications centres - Ascension.
