Strange Creature Found 600 Feet Under Antarctica Ice!!!

"At a depth of 600 feet beneath the West Antarctic ice sheet, a small shrimp-like creature managed to brighten up an otherwise gray polar day in November 2009. Bob Bindschadler of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., remembers the day well. He and his team were on a joint NASA-National Science Foundation expedition to examine the underside of the ice sheet when they found the pinkish-orange creature swimming beneath the ice.

Mmmmm...shrimp.

Where can we not find life on this planet?
Very cool.

Ok I can't be the only one hoping it was Godzilla.

That looks like a colonoscopy.

Oh! Godzirraaa!! I wounder what else we could find under there. Antartica is awesome. They could maybe use the the Piri Reis map to find new places to dig.

Europa anyone ?

He may be just a shrimp to us but in HIS world he IS Godzilla!

Hopefully in my lifetime we will see some similar images from NASA on one of the solar systems ice moons and find a shrimp or something else alive

Shrimp again?

Why is it always shrimp?

I'm still trying to work out why this is news 3 years after the event.

At first i thought, vostok news.

Good stuff regardless

During a moment I was fascinated by the pattern on the walls of the tunnel, very cool, then I realized that is was a metal mesh to secure the walls. How was the hole dug ? The machine that did it should be a beauty itself...

Very cool.

Life has even sprung up on solar arrays we put up out in space. Pretty hardy stuff.

We Keep Finding Incredible Creature's...

This rare shark is believed to be a living fossil, unfortunately they tried to take it out of the ocean into a confined space, but it died soon after.

Any more sources? That shark looks incredibly fake.

Shrimp are everywhere.

I wonder what is at bottom, if it's liquid water only makes snce something lives there.

They have bugs live in the ice down there, they just move real slow. I wonder if they have slow sex also, no doubt, a little wine soft music.

Looks like an unknown species of shrimp. Nothing anormal like a sea goat sucker.

I'd rather eat a new type of shrimp than a sea goat sucker.
