Life found half a mile below Antarctic ice

Researchers in Antarctica have revealed the discovery of a whole ecosystem living beneath the pack ice.

This is only further proof that ice giants are alive and well on Europa! If we plan to explore that planet, we can't touch down without the son of Odin at hand.

The thing is we know that there is life on Earth and it is so plentiful and so adaptable that it is hard NOT to find it. To put things into perspective, we also have life in deserts. There are plenty of deserts on Mars but life is not evident. It would be just as unexpected to find life on its polar caps.
