Success Is Official Russian Team Breaches Buried Antarctic Lake Russians Reach Ancient Scientists Drill Into a Lost World Has Reached Reports Say drilling team close to reaching lake hidden for 14 million years What Lies Beneath the Surface of drill past ice reach buried lake. lies beneath Russia drills into ancient subglacial Vostok scientists bore massive prompt contamination concerns Drillers Successfully To Subglacial underground that could transform way we think about life We have breached confirms Fox Flub Safe In scientific coup Drilling Reaches Long Trapped Under Ice Sheet

Russian Scientists Reach 20 Million-Year-Old Lake Beneath Antarctica Scientists who drilled to the surface of Lake Vostok -- hidden under miles of ice -- managed a feat that is increasingly rare today: excavating a part of the planet that has never been seen or touched by human beings Scientists drill past Antarctic ice to reach buried lake. What lies beneath? Lake Vostok has been capped with Antarctic ice for at least 15 million years. Now scientists have drilled 13,000 feet to reach its surface. They'll soon learn what life forms have adapted to that cold, dark locale. Lake Vostok, Sealed in Antarctic Ice, Reached by Russian Drillers Two and a half miles beneath Antarctica's ice lies Lake Vostok, a mysterious body of water 160 miles long and 30 miles wide that is believed to have been sealed off from the rest of the world for 20 million years. Now, the Russians, who... Russian Scientists Breach Antarctica's Lake Vostok—Confirmed Russian scientists have confirmed that they have breached the subglacial Lake Vostok in Antarctica—a first. Russians reach hidden Antarctic lake Russians scientists have completed a five-year task and reached water in Lake Vostok, 3.7km below the surface of Antarctica. Drillers Reach Antarctic Lake Vostok Russian scientists say they have successfully drilled down to Lake Vostok, a body of water two miles beneath the ice in Antarctica that may have been sealed for 20 million years. Lake Vostok: Russian Scientists Claim Success in Antarctic Water Beneath Polar Ice Cap May Have Been Sealed for 20 Million Years Russian team reaches buried Antarctic Lake Vostok, say reports Lake Vostok has been cut off from daylight for 14 million years and is buried beneath 2 miles of ice Russian team reaches Antarctica's buried Lake Vostok, say reports Lake Vostok has been cut off from daylight for 14 million years and is buried beneath 2 miles of ice Lake Vostok update: Buried lake in Antarctica reached by Russian scientists, reports say A buried lake in Antarctica called Lake Vostok was said to have been reached by Russian scientists after decades of drilling, which notably could reveal new forms of life and show how life evolved before the ice age.
