Coach boots FRANCISCO March 10, according to foreign media reports, in the Antarctic glaciers flowing out of a bright red liquid, like blood in general, hence the name "Blood Falls." This is the most amazing scenery the Antarctic continent, but it is also the Antarctic region in one of the areas most peculiar: McMurdo Dry Valley, here on Earth most like Mars region. McMurdo Dry Valley, Antarctica, McMurdo Bay, located on the west by a series of valleys pose. The reason is known as dry valley, because there is exceptionally dry, there is no trace of water vapor in the air, where about 200 million years has not been precipitation of the. This area is the most severe conditions on earth desert, but here is not covered by the Antarctic continent the only place. 200 miles per hour (about 321 kilometers) of the winds, almost blown away all the water, leaving only bare barren. Imagine, you walk through them alone, on foot, through penguins and other bodies of different animals and eventually you will find a "bloody" glacier. i like coach wallets. "Blood Falls" is from the ill-fated expedition of Robert Scott, a member in 1911 found. Initially, the "blood waterfall" like rust color is considered to result because of the growth of some species of algae. Later, the "Blood Falls" because of the color has been proven to be caused by iron is oxidized. Spray out of the glacier is often clear, iron-rich liquid. The rapid oxidation of iron, this glacier outflow of the liquid becomes a dark red we have seen. "Air yeezy" said: "These liquid from under the ice 1300 feet (about 400 m) high levels of salt lakes. The new study found that even in such a harsh environment, there are still bacteria survive. These hardy lives depend on sulfur and iron compounds of life. Researchers say this lake since the glaciers will be overshadowed by the creation of such a cold, dark, oxygen-free ecological environment, the bacteria colonies were about 1.5 million years of isolation. "scientists believe that in such a harsh environment, there is still life, survival, where there is reason to believe that there is similar to the solar system, the possibility of alien life, such as Mars and Europa, under the polar ice sheets.
