[link to news.nationalpost.com] Bacteria thriving in lightless, low-oxygen, super-salty Antarctic lake may give clues to origins of life A study by polar researchers has revealed an ancient community of bacteria able to thrive in the lightless, oxygen-depleted, salty environment beneath nearly 70 feet (20 metres) of ice in an Antarctic lake, giving insight into the unique ecosystem. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28778008 nothing special. give the sheeple some bs every 2 months or so, sell it as a big discovery and hide the truth in plain sight. who cheers because of frozen water on a planets poles is some serious dumbass! |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 22478672 11/30/2012 09:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | NASA is wrong, again. Just like they believe comets are made of ice because of the detection of hydrogen (every comet we've visited has had NO ICE). The hydrogen is a result of electric discharging. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24760791 Notice how all the craters are where they are detecting the "water?" [link to www.youtube.com] What comets have we visited? Don't remember hearing anything about that. |

| Ostria1 User ID: 27119727 11/30/2012 10:03 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | welcome :) I think it is important as we start to understand that at least in our solar system there can be water nearly in every space rock (planets, moons, comets, asteroids) from the NY Times Sean C. Solomon was quoted in the New York Times as estimating the volume of the ice as large enough to "encase Washington, D.C., in a frozen block two and a half miles deep." more (and a suggestion for a colony) [link to www.nytimes.com] Ostria |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1432018 the existence of extremophobes on Eartn demolished that bullshit theory long ago. just like the presence of massive quatities of hydrocarbons on Titan demolished the dead dino theory of oil formation. |

Helped my 2 nd grader ( last year) on a model and paper on mercury, we were looking up info on the computer and came across an article that said there were ice caps on mercury, which I thought was strange, but we went ahead and paint the poles with a little white to show snow. No wonder her teacher had a puzzled look on her face!!!! |

If the life is proved to be there then all the bible/Allah thumpers will have to go fish. This is also validation for all the people who believe and have seen UFO's Now I do believe in god just not the way it was portrayed by man and we were seeded or infected depending on how you look at it. This also validates my previous post "Life, its not that special as we once thought". |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 13979910 11/30/2012 11:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow! Ice on Mercury, so close to SOL and atmosphere, supposedly unbearably HOT? If true, this could change everything regarding the understanding of out solar system. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 844742 This news, again if true is huge! It's also fairly basic physics. Think of a fireplace. Now imagine a 2-foot thick plank of tungsten, 2 by 3 metres being held up in front of that fireplace, a couple of feet in front. On the other side of the tungsten sheet, you have a fan blowing vaporized dry ice. On one side of that tungsten sheet, you have extreme heat. The other? Extreme cold. No biggie. The other |
