Life under 3000 feet of ice in Antarctica

An annotated still of a video in which scientists saw stationary animals under ice in Antarctica. The creatures appear similar to have found life buried under 3,000 feet of ice in Antarctica, challenging the assumption that nothing could live in such conditions. Scientists previously thought Antarctica’s frigid temperatures and lack of light and food made it impossible for living creatures to thrive. The creatures were found attached to a boulder in the arctic seas under the Filchner-Ronne ice shelf. Experts from the British Antarctic Survey drilled through 2,860 feet of ice before making the discovery
