Wacky Weather: Antarctica Lake Research

Alright, so this isn't exactly wacky weather, but I think that it's pretty cool and thought you would think so too. United States researchers have drilled into a Lake Whillans, which is buried 2625 feet below the surface in Antarctica. The sub glacial lake contains some bacteria. I know this must seem moot, but think about the harsh environment that this bacteria has to live in, in order to survive. The scientist have collected 8 gallons of water from this lake, in which they plan on doing further studies on these organisms.
