    My father's first cousin was one of the geologists who discovered Blood Falls, Thomas Erik Berg. He was killed in a helicopter crash in Antarctica in November, 1969. There's a mountain peak named after him, Berg Peak, as well as the Berg Field Center building at McMurdo Station.

    I really hope to see a longer coverage on this because it is so facinating, so unique that it needs more coverage to go into all the levels of complexity and research projects occuring in that special region. I love the tests that they are conducting and it really does open up the bridge towards understanding what certain not earth conditions might be like or relatively close to, in ways that we never have seen or understood before. Plus we get to learn about a region of our planet we hardly know nothing about in depth and detail. It's so cool to see Antarctica in more than this vast thick ice sheet. There is so much more going on there, especially in the water ecosystems. I'd watch science about it everyday. Seriously. I love it!

    In other documentaries about Antarctica we always see that the scientific station buildings have to adjust their elevations because of the changes of the thickness of the Ice they are located on. As mentioned here in this video there are parts of Antarctica which are not covered with ice and snow, so why don't we take all the scientific stations to these areas and settle them directly on earth and make them permanent? Even by digging caves and bunkers into the rocks of the mountains around, stations can be embedded into the mountains and beneath earth so with least heat exchange there will be least energy needed to warm these stations plus least environmental impact on Antarctica.

    It's time for me to respect
    The ones you love mean more than anything
    So, with sadness in my heart
    Feel the best thing I could do
    Is end it all and leave forever
    What's done is done, it feels so bad
    What once was happy now is sad

    Can't live without the trust from those you love

    Could there be blind cave-like fish in those buried lakes, even a small ecosystem in what can be described as ancient ocean under the ice.? Many fish about poles have evolved protections against the intense cold. There could be ancient life waiting to be discovered in there.
