4:15 am
from this day forward, things will be different here. a huge territory of 17 million square kilometers of thematic zones 9 time zones, what do you know about this land of your land? each of us is inside our own little world. and what are the miracles of the mystic behind him, but are you always able to understand the nature of what you see? antarctica it is called the most mysterious land not only by mystics, but also by scientists, hundreds of theories, thousands of assumptions , a lot of fear, everything here is so close and so inaccessible, the legends say. here in the thickness of the ice closed plates of aliens and
4:16 am
the secret base of the third reich there are myths about snow ghosts and huge fiery plasmoids that prey on people near the south pole others believe that the ice hides traces of the atlantean civilization of the first highly developed creatures on the planet, but few know that they are afraid. here we need something completely different. we learned that the surface of this continent is almost sterile, something that kills all microbes. but in the white caps of many millions of years of ice, invisible eyes are hidden, but it can be deadly, moreover, it can destroy humanity. about what is it talking about? about what an invisible threat, just recently on february 6, 2012, russian
4:17 am
scientists finished drilling a huge well in a four-kilometer thickness of ice and finally got to a huge subglacial lake, which has not seen sunlight for millions of years. will the opening of the lake turn into the opening of a box of pallets that ice and frost have kept from people, that will come to life with the advent of heat and man? to understand this, the film crew of the mysterious russia decided to personally go to antarctica. we are ready to fight with cold. we are ready to take the risk to tell you about the real danger, to fly here we spent almost a week in airports and planes from moscow to paris from
4:18 am
paris across the atlantic to chile and santiago rebelnas in this city at the end of the earth. we are three days. we were waiting for flying weather to set in order to fly over the drake strait from south america to antarca. we were anxiously waiting for a meeting with the boundless white lands. we well imagined this mysterious snow-covered continent, but the plane landed on a gray rocky takeoff strip for hundreds of meters around. there was no snow. it’s winter in moscow in february, and here it’s simply impossible to get to antarctica at other times of the year, but few people can imagine that when summer snow begins in antarctica, and the ice recedes and here you can see a gray land with almost no life.
4:19 am
it's waterloo island antarctica russian base bellingshausen we want to know why there isn't one around. they explain to us that it is too warm to the border, an ice cap of several tens of kilometers, during the stay, the thawed soil, it is necessary to be careful here and there there come across, indistinguishable to the eye, free-flowing swamp. moss covers everything around. but where did the ice go, it will return again in the winter or yet what we see is evidence of global warming. according to various estimates, about 80% of all fresh water on the planet is located in antarctica. the antarctic ice sheet is the largest on earth, if it completely melts, the level of the world ocean will rise by almost 60 m, but the worst thing is not even the
4:20 am
water into which the white cap of the continent slowly turns. everything that is invisible. what sleeps between ice crystals, waiting for their time to be released back in moscow, we were told that it is quite possible that insidious and ruthless killers are hiding between microscopic ice crystals. they are invisible to the human eye. they can be located in any part of the huge white continent of antarctica and these viruses are all killers. the elements of the biosphere are inhabited by the virus, given that viruses are great, they endure huge doses of radiation from space cold. i admit the theoretical possibility that the virus has survived there to
4:21 am
this day, even if it was noticeable dozens, maybe hundreds of thousands of years ago. back to him with a shortage of influenza and millions of others, they are all eternal enemies of the human virus, practically nothing is scary for them, neither warmth nor light is needed for our interlocutor. this has been well known for 50 years. we store them in our storage facilities at a temperature of minus 196 g liquid, if tomorrow, near one of our stations, the ingrown ice will reveal pathogens of a deadly disease previously unknown to man. maybe just catastrophically those who are at this station, then they probably have great contacts with neighbors. airplane or
4:22 am
so on in this way the virus can spread. but how do you know? what is the likelihood of such a scenario? what should the polar explorer be afraid of and is it true that the ice is really melting upon arrival in antarctica, we turned this question to the head of the russian bellingshausen station, bulat mavlyudov. he is glycylic. this is the name of those who study the ice. and if there is ice. antarctica will melt and flood all coastal cities, including st. petersburg, new york, and so on along with damask. we climbed the ice cap. here a specialist showed us an incredible phenomenon, it turns out that real snow balloons form on the dome from the heat . we simply did not expect to see glacial ice in antarctica. if you look here. you are such a bluish grayish color.
4:23 am
this is snow filled with water. this snow swamp formed. well, because the snow has melted. if he enters this blue there, then you can fall through to the waist, but here on the slope they are small snow melts only during the antarctic summer, but it seems that in winter the glacier is not gaining its former volume and every year it becomes smaller and smaller so that we can see with our own eyes how the ice recedes. bulat showed us another place at the foot of the glacier, we are ah-ah. behind the multiplication next to the glacier, it is interesting because there are fossils here. in particular. this is the remnant of a tree trunk 50 million years ago , there were dense forests growing in the tropics. these unique scientists were able to see quite recently. they opened when the
4:24 am
ice left here, but they were found maybe 10 years ago. the glacier is retreating as a result some surface is exposed, petrified trees are 50 million years old. this means that once everything looked completely different here, and life flourished in the antarctic, and it was the restorations of this life that viruses dangerous to us could have survived, because the necroorganisms that were here several million years ago, most likely, an alien. this means that dangerous and even deadly surprises can await us, because viruses can wait for their new victim. for as long as you like, even where there is no life at all, there are data, say in separating some viruses from the corpses of people who died from the same flu during the spanish flu and who were buried in
4:25 am
permafrost. yes, they did not save their daughters. the film crew of mysterious russia has come the longest and most difficult way in the history of its existence. we arrived in antarctica , few people know that antarctica is very close to the territory of our country in terms of area. it occupies more than 14 million square kilometers 200 years ago this continent was discovered by two russian explorers. since then, antarctica has not belonged to anyone, but 5 operating russian bases on its white land allow us to call it a piece of our mysterious russia, these are the southern elephant seals. there are about 700 of them here on the peninsula.
4:26 am
now they are changing the world. usually there are many more of them in a flock. they live in very large colonies, there are colonies of penguins numbering over 100,000 individuals. they nest here along with other penguin penguins. adelie or gentoo penguins, but we learned that the walds of the white continent lives, the hidden threat is dangerous viruses, and the ice itself melt every year we are in an ice cave, when the glacier moves behind it there are some completely that we are, and here you have a pole located in the wall scientists with the help of a pole or a special stick installed in a certain place of the glacier check how this one moves and melts
4:27 am
giant white blanket. every year numb, it slides down the slope and at the same time. it decreases in volume, moves 15 cm, and melts 2 m, so the glacier retreats, as it were, anyway. movement. while some scientists are recording how the glaciers are retreating, others are preparing to meet what the microorganism bacteria and viruses hide in south america at the chilean antarctic institute. we met with a microbiologist. they told one of the main directions of their work to try to put these microorganisms in their service before they destroy us antarctica seems to us not friendly microorganisms live here everywhere under the ice in antarctica is a continent isolated from the outside world and
4:28 am
extremely wealthy. in the sense of the life of microorganisms, it is believed that microorganisms living in the water of the antarctic have gone through a special path of development. in order to avoid accidental objections, the work here is carried out under sterile conditions with all necessary security measures, my task is to search for the study of natural components that can work as antibiotics. these are very good bacteria, they hinder the development, for example, both sherihi and koli sherichia koli is the scientific name of e. coli, causing severe food poisoning microorganism. able to resist it was discovered quite recently, but also as a beneficial bacterium was discovered. tomorrow can be found deadly, while scientists work with
4:29 am
material taken from the coastal yons of antarctica but what is hidden in the blue-white ice, where sunlight has not penetrated for millions of years, it is still unknown to anyone , however, to an ordinary person, in order to experience a shock , one does not even have to look into the thickness there is enough ice and the surface on the dome of the glacier of the island of waterloo, we ourselves have witnessed a simply incredible phenomenon. never before we have never seen anything like red snow, as if someone had splashed blood here. at first we were shocked, just by the very fact that some algae are able to live and reproduce in
4:30 am
such conditions, but when we later returned from antarctica we met the head of the acryo astrobiology group at the st. petersburg institute of nuclear physics. it turned out that there are much more amazing forms of life. this is a bacterium found in antarctic lake vostok. this is the bacteria name. i won't speak. the main thing is that it is thermophilic bacteria, the japanese singled out the same bacterium for themselves and the americans from his services, discovering this bacterium, scientists were simply amazed. and bacteria can't live. uh, at temperatures below 37 ° to revise. in general , it was formed if it has an inflow of hot water lake. it is located in that part of antarctica that is called the south pole of the cold of the earth,
4:31 am
a temperature of -89.2 ° c was recorded here. but almost 4 km separates from the surface of the lake, it is formed of ice inside a huge fault, as baikal looks like inside they really can hiding thermal springs. and this means that a unique ecosystem previously unfamiliar to mankind could develop under the ice and it is not at all a fact that this ecosystem will turn out to be completely friendly. even now , experts are finding microorganisms in the ice, the origin of which they do not know at all, their dna does not pass in any database. there is such a global database on america in europe in japan, it is combined into a single network. and we compare by similarity, we can say what we found, so if
4:32 am
you have a similarity of 98%, 99 or 100, you can to say that you found exactly what is in the database, and we had a problem. what does it mean they showed on the body, a 91%. 91 - this means it's not a species. these are not companies. this family we do not know what it is, and the second organism is also a species. that is, it is still unknown. that is, i can say that two organisms of science are species, but we do not know what these species are, because they are not in the database. there it is different to expect from these microorganisms. maybe the conditions they had to survive in could make them so strong aggressive, that once in our environment they will pose a danger to life. if this is true, then we should not consider the white continent at the south pole as a reliable refrigerator that will protect us from the penetration of the enemy. in connection with the warming, everything that is inside
4:33 am
the ice. nature itself will spread over our planet. an example of this was shown to us by bulat mavlyudov. we are going. here's to this light granite. this means that this stone will bring it from where and how it could be brought only by an iceberg approximately, but the island waterloo became for him an obstacle on the way to the ocean. however, if the next iceberg is further and will carry away in its ice. dangerous bacteria virus or other microorganisms. nobody knows how it will end. if we imagine that antarctica is a giant refrigerator,
4:34 am
then icebergs are, as it were, some transporters that can carry the substance of antarctica in different directions and , accordingly, where the iceberg sails will be transferred to the substance of antarctica, but is it possible to more specifically assume? what along with the melting of ice will be carried to all corners of the world, the antarctic iceberg in antarctica can be buried some interesting things, in particular, for example, giant meteorites that once fell to the ground. well, these giant meteorites. they are preserved within this thickness in the modern scientific world, the so-called theory of paspermia is widespread, that is, the version that when life was brought to planet earth from space. this means that it is possible in the ice of antarctica as in the perpetual freezer. be conserved viruses and bacteria from other planets, nobody knows what they
4:35 am
are capable of, but if the warming continues very soon we will have to get to know them the first representatives of unknown species of antarctic life have already managed to fix in march 2010 the whole world has become. it is known that nasa specialists while drilling in the western part of antarctica at a depth of 200 m. they found a creature under the ice. outwardly, it resembles a shrimp. but no one really knows what it is. age size of adults the ability to survive and the ability to displace other species have been studied. until that time, there was no information about any such precedent. it is known that the creature could not just swim to the well from the sea, because it is at least 20 km away. so this something lives
4:36 am
in the ice. but can it be that this creature has passed the evolutionary path in the ice of charktida from particles of extraterrestrial microorganisms once brought here, we will not rush to a conclusion. after all, there is another theory, it is about the fact that on this mainland it is quite earthly life. one day i just went along a different path of development. and before the mainland was covered with ice. trees once grew here and dinosaurs lived, the proof of this was presented to us by a doctor from the bellingshausen base. prohibition i picked up a couple of artifacts says, well, if you want to show them to you, any finds in antarctica are forbidden to be taken to private collections or taken to other continents, but eduard will not lay them out anywhere and gives them to
4:37 am
scientists for research on demand. however, the realization of what exactly he can touch with his own hands does not leave indifferent even an experienced military doctor-surgeon. these are the fossilized remains of fossilized plant imprints, according to experts 50 million years old, that is, if you look at this leaf imprints, you can imagine that 50 million years ago. there have been noises for millions of years over the past time due to the remoteness of the mainland from the rest of the world, changes in weather conditions and other factors , the life that has remained here of those times. then evolve into something unknown and dangerous, but with what speed the ice recedes, when waiting for an attack by an invisible merciless enemy, together with russian scientists, this
4:38 am
problem is being dealt with by researchers from germany, one of them and the internet specially came to belins this year within one season within one summer. we see a decrease in the ice cover, if we talk about the height, then it is 2 m, scientists told us about an incredible event. on the mainland itself, a unique phenomenon was noticed, the group, together with matthias brown, discovered that a huge shelf broke off 2 years ago, and this was a piece of different size in switzerland that is about 60,000 square kilometers. antarctica is a huge white riddle on the world map for 200 years after its discovery, scientists managed to learn about this continent not as much as they wanted. after all, all the secrets are reliably hidden
4:39 am
by many kilometers of ice cap. we are at the top of the bellingshausen ice dome not far from the station of the same name, for almost the entire history of the scientific development of these ice territories, scientists have tried to look there, under the impenetrable ice cover in order for deep ice drilling. for this, special drilling equipment is used, special machines are made in a special pavilion to protect people from frost, and wind and equipment. it's also pretty complex equipment that we don't have here. antarctica is huge. now, when we are near the border with south america in the heart of the continent at the pole of cold, ice is being drilled over lake vostok here, too, drilling was carried out, but unfortunately there are no traces. uh, from that drilling, there's nothing left. since everything is covered with snow and the swimmer with ice and
4:40 am
now drilling on the glacier dome is not carried out, but here is the minimum that we can show. this is drilling into wells, the smallest wells, in the snow for fishing line, which means that this is done very simply, just like any other places. well, come on. look at the well from this small well, neither snow nor ice is taken for analysis. however, a special mark is installed here, which helps to track the melting or accumulation of snow and ice here. scientists are keenly interested not only in connection with the fact that it helps monitor global climate change on the planet. well, because no one knows what the melted glaciers will open. indeed, according to one version of these hats, even the mysteries of extraterrestrial life are hidden. more precisely, the life that
4:41 am
arrived on our planet many millions of years ago and made it habitable, most likely, it was introduced in the form of ready-made large molecules of flour, which have already developed, so the central antar is always a testing ground for collecting cosmic color components. novopok is ideal for searching for any and folk items nasa researchers have already discovered in antarctica a crater of asteroid origin. the funnel is 482 km in diameter. the crater was formed when an asteroid fell to the ground with a diameter of about 48 km about 250 million years ago, this crater is today considered the largest on earth. however, in search of sources of extraterrestrial life, scientists do not pay attention at all to meteorites, as in
4:42 am
clinics. however, cosmic dust particles are smaller than in diameter and of different shapes. not burning fall into our atmosphere and slow time by parachute. so antarctica on the one hand, it allows scientists to hope that humanity is not the only mind in the universe, and on the other hand, it is impossible to exclude the possibility that in this giant natural refrigerator of the earth, in the best traditions of horror films, microorganisms frozen for the time being can destroy our life in order to to form on it a new , completely different ecosystem, but in the fact that antarctica is an ideal refrigerator. we were able to see for ourselves. here, not far from the
4:43 am
uruguayan base, debris lies on earth of an unknown court, he is at least two years old. however, the tree is perfectly preserved at the station on the beach. here is the bottom dialing system. just this part of the bottom valve, this ointment that was in the hold. we will never know. what happened to this ship and the people who were on it near these harsh shores, they could be killed by cold and wind, or could an unknown disease. perhaps this ship was one of the first works that have been on the face of only one fact, despite the fact that wood is a natural material that is easy to
4:44 am
succumbs to decay after 200 years of being three meters from the sea. it has been perfectly preserved. well, how is this possible, oddly enough, this question was answered by a doctor; his house was easy to find among other buildings at the station, the familiar sign of the red cross was visible from afar, if we talk about and he tactics is practically like a bacterial environment, then eat the whole microbes very little. well here's an example, if you leave the tea asleep. yes, tea leaves can be put here for weeks. she will not explain. that is, in principle, here the bacterial environment is practically unbelievable, but why is this happening? is it possible that the whole thing is exclusively in the cold, but it turned out to be the fault of the ultraviolet, i did not conduct a microbiologist. it is not difficult to consider what is new for the surgeon. there is a lot of pleasantness here, as
4:45 am
eduard told us ultraviolet kills everything that is possible - all microbes in a year of life in sterile conditions. in polar explorers , immunity is weakened as unnecessary. he simply does not have to protect the blood of a person only, when tourists arrive at the base in the antarctic summer, mass epidemics begin colds. the only problem is plant germs from tourists. ships, this is the problem of tourists, if they did not wait for the person. well, if ultraviolet sterilizes the surface of the antarctic, then how
4:46 am
can any microorganisms survive in ice, it turns out that it could. after all, it is ice that perfectly protects against radiation at great depths. we were surprised to learn that ice, for example, does not let the red part of the color spectrum through at all. you see that here the color so pretty blue. it's not just that the point is that there is no red light to pass through. and if you take away red from white, it will turn out well. here is a bluish one to learn as much as possible about these ices. we went to st. petersburg. here is located the scientific research institute of climate and environment, the arctic and antarctic institute. on the spot, we were taken to a special laboratory, first of
4:47 am
all, ice. an annular is a pipe with e sheets on the cake, so you know, drilling turns out to be such a cylinder, this, if the speaker each cylinder is an invaluable fount of information about climate change on the planet over the millennia, about ecology, and temperature, and whether there is life in these ices. this is where we store earth core samples. now i'll show you how it looks. for example, this sample of e, lake ice from a well five g one. uh, from a depth of 3.624 m, that is, one of the deepest from the rostov station. well, it’s
4:48 am
the samples already taken for analysis processed from it, thanks to ice research, scientists managed to find out in this seemingly deadly environment. on you can actually survive. here is another soviet period. yes, there was a discovery of the phenomenon of prolonged microorganisms. on the ice of lizunkern from the vostok station, a discovery was made by savit abyzov, the name of this person. he works. at the institute of microbiology in moscow, he simply took this microbial, as it were, culture from ice. uh, sowed it on a nutrient medium. and with him it began to grow and develop, and the age of this double 150, in my opinion, is a year old with him. that is, how would he prove that all this time these microorganisms were alive and were in state means that if the water of the arctic really hides microorganisms capable of causing irreparable harm to human health, then as soon as the mainland melts, they will inevitably wake up and become active. we have two whole reasons to fear that
4:49 am
people will be unprotected. before this micro life. the first microorganism could have entered antarctica from outer space with the help of space dust, and we have no idea what they are capable of and the second. this life could freeze, fall into suspended animation, or, on the contrary , continue to develop separately and to evolve in warm lakes under many kilometers of ice caps from the time when this continent was not yet covered with snow from the time when man was not yet on planet earth the southernmost and coldest continent of the planet antarctica it is difficult to imagine that scientists have found once it was warm here, flowers grew and trees were full of life, and our planet
4:50 am
looked completely different, how could this be according to one of the theories in those days the great land of australia and the planet reigned terrible monsters, a famous dinosaur geological hypothesis of origin about the existence of the gondwana supercontinent, a which consisted of modern south america madagascar a. the hindustan peninsula, australia, new zealand and antarctica are a huge part. sushi ganvana, under the influence of the centrifugal force of the earth, it split into several continents, which moved extremely slowly for many millennia, trying to occupy those places on the globe where we see them
4:51 am
today, if this theory is correct, it is not surprising that in antarctica it was once warm and life flourished and the climate of this continent gradually changed. naturally, from a temperate climate. it has already turned into a polar cold climate. so antarctica has become the natural refrigerator of the earth , a place where the memory of everything that once happened on the planet is stored in the eternal ice, and unknown microorganisms sleep in the eternal ice and mysterious creatures move in the place where the eternal ice seems to keep a threat to habitual life on earth. now global climate changes on the planet lead to the fact that many kilometers of ice caps on this continent begin human activities. now the rules and
4:52 am
laws of life in antarctica are credited with destroying everything that is the products of human activity in these parts. on the base. beringshausen. we met anatoly venglovsky, he is an environmental engineer, and he explained to us that his main duty is to prevent pollution of antarka, to prevent the destruction of the familiar cold world of these places from accelerating, we eat garbage. all that in general, all that says it's all garbage. here from the kitchen that go food, waste paper, cardboard after cleaning. well, everything that is all that is possible can after a person after his life remain so, for example, glass is metal that does not burn, we specially collect barrels. and all this, in my opinion, is sent to ships, construction waste. he also carefully monitors that no
4:53 am
one throws away paper or polyethylene on the street. everything is absolutely everything that a person brings with him. so it should be taken out back in any form, even the hall. here it is after burning is taken away, and in order to keep the waldach as long as possible a possible threat to human life, this is not enough. only here to monitor the cleanliness and environmental friendliness of human activities, because the main thing is ice breakers. we are the ones who pollute the planet on other continents every year, scientists are getting deeper and deeper into the mystery of ice sheets and ice life. antarctica, their work is difficult and dangerous, but this is the only way we get a chance to know in advance at least something about the enemies that may be hiding in the glaciers always exists. but then i have a counter
4:54 am
question, when their singer is armstrong. bring forms known to the earth with you, and so on, if you’re just afraid of everything, then it’s best not to do anything at all, but you shouldn’t be afraid that scientists will bring unknown viruses into our world on suspicion of their shoes. these are experienced people who work in accordance with safety regulations, polluting the world around us, we inevitably accelerate the moment when the walls of the ice antarctic safe become thinner and everything that keeps this the white continent will come to freedom, one should not underestimate the role of each of us, and even if even the smallest person now starts thinking about how to save our planet, tomorrow the world can change. after all, despite the
4:55 am
fact that antarctica is many thousands of kilometers away from us, we live on the same planet and are inextricably linked with all its seas and continents. and that means when it begins to melt, all the deadly creatures that may be hiding inside will become part of our world at lightning speed. be careful to everything that happens around you because the truth is often closer than you think.
