What was Found Under The Ice Antarctica?

53 million years ago, it was so warm here that the shores were filled with palm trees, and the air temperature rose above 20 degrees Celsius. And just recently, the temperature dropped to minus 89.2 degrees Celsius in this place. It is the fifth largest continent in the world. 99% of the mainland is covered with ice which is on average 3 km thick. It stores about 80% of all freshwater reserves on the planet. And you are not allowed to be here if you haven’t removed your wisdom teeth or appendix.

This is Antarctica!

The surface of its mainland is well-studied. But, as always, the most interesting stuff is hidden deep inside. Well, it’s time to find out what lies under those thick layers of ice. Is there life there and does it resemble ours?
