In Antarctica where life is difficult, some clues were found that will shock you. 77 species were found 200 meters below the ice sheet.
The environment gets harder for ‘life’ as you go deeper under the Antarctic ice sheet, where food sources are almost non-existent. but organisms have been found on Earth that can survive even in the harshest environments. Scientists have achieved a major breakthrough in the Antarctic region. Scientists have discovered an astonishing 77 species in the extreme conditions of Antarctica. Evidence of which is 6 thousand years old has also been found.
Research from Germany has revealed that the species include sword-shaped algae and some unusual insects. Using hot water, a team from the Alfred Wegener Institute dug two pits about 200 meters 656 feet deep. The team in 2018 Ekström near the Neumayr station in the southeastern Weddell Sea. This excavation was done on the ice shelf from which 77 different species were found.
