Topic: Russian Tenacity

After 20 years of drilling, a team of Russian researchers is close to breaching the prehistoric Lake Vostok, which has been trapped deep beneath Antarctica for the last 14 million years.

Someone told them there was Epitron down there!

Joking aside, sticking with something as difficult as drilling in the artic for 20 years, is an acheivement in itself. I suspect they will make the worlds most expensive Vodka with the water smile

Lol, my gf's masters project was to design the sensor that they are sending down to detect life, which will be the precursor to the ones they are sending into space.
