Discovery made beneath Antarctica's McMurdo Dry Valleys

The video explores Antarctica's McMurdo Dry Valleys, shaped by millions of years of geological change. Despite its harsh conditions, the area supports microscopic life. An international team, supported by the National Science Foundation, used Sky Temp technology to explore beneath the valleys. They discovered aquifers of salty water, which could harbor unknown microbial ecosystems and provide evidence of ancient climate change. This discovery suggests the possibility of similar ecosystems existing beneath Mars's deserts.
