What if you driilll the hole to the bottom of Antarctica? That's what these scientists did here.
Using a giant drill like this one, they cut a ring into the ice, creating a core in the middle, and as they drill deeper, they're traveling back in time.
Reaching ice that formed long ago and trapped inside that ice are particles from the atmosphere telling us what Earth was like back then.
But these scientists kept drilling for more than 200 days until finally they hit bedrock and piece by piece, they pulled out the oldest continuous ice core ever,
estimated to be over 1.2 million years old. It's so old that scientists think it might help tell us when Aedtarctica first became covered in ice and
how microorganisms trapped at the bottom developed if you need more optimistic science and text stories subscribe.

📌 description
what if you drill all the way to the bottom of antarctica? scientists actually did it using a giant drill, cutting deep into the ice for more than 200 days. the deeper they drilled, the further back in time they traveled—reaching ice that formed over 1.2 million years ago. inside that ice are tiny particles from earth’s ancient atmosphere and even microorganisms trapped for ages. this discovery may finally reveal when antarctica became covered in ice and how life at the bottom developed.
