[quote:Krispy71:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzM0NzY4OTM4X0E1NjYzMzM2] http://scitechdaily.com/british-and-american-teams-hunt-for-life-under-antarctic-ice/ IMAGE : http://scitechdaily.com/images/drilling-map-antarctica.jpg Next week, UK glaciologists are heading to Lake Ellsworth to prepare for a new drilling stage that will start December 5. They hope to reach the lake and start examining sediments to find signs of life. Roughly [u]380 subglacial lakes have been discovered and mapped in Antarctica[/u], and they have been explored remotely with ice-penetrating radar, gravity measurements, and seismic sensors. The lakes were created by geothermal heat that melts the Antarctic ice from below. [b]Gravity and pressure[/b] force the melt water to flow, and it collects under the ice. Lake Ellsworth will be the second lake to be breached after Lake Vostok was reached in February. A US team is heading to Lake Whillans, a small, shallow body of water close to the edge of the Ross Ice Shelf. The discovery of exotic microbial life, which could have evolved untouched for millennia, is one of the aspects of this research. Scientists have already discovered bacteria that mine their energy from rocks and minerals, and they assume that there are [b]many specialized microbes[/b] living underneath Antarctica. The Russian team [u]at Lake Vostok found evidence of heat-loving bacteria living in the bedrock surrounding the lake[/u]. The clues came from DNA in the sediment that was trapped in accretion ice. (Most of the Vostok ice-core samples were contaminated with cerosine and almost lifeless) More info : (ggle for) PDF - Proposed Exploration of Subglacial Lake Ellsworth Antarctica - Final Comprehensive Environmental Evaluation [/quote]
