Astrobiologist Cyprien Verso shares images from Antarctica
In the Arctic permafrost, in which Verso and his colleagues have to work, even the most "hardened" bacteria cannot survive. In addition, there is completely no smog and, of course, the landscape familiar to most people. Instead of trees and lawns — snow, instead of roads — ice floes, everything seems to be covered with a white veil. This makes the life of researchers look like an alien one.
Usually Verso is busy with climate research and collecting samples for observations, but in his spare time he is not averse to sharing pictures of local beauties on social networks.
In addition, Verso pleases subscribers with unusual photos of food. And this is not at all what we are used to seeing in the profiles of Instagram addicts.
In the photo, Verso shows what certain dishes look like if you try to cook them at a temperature of -80 degrees. Naturally, the researchers do not eat frozen pasta and frozen raw eggs in the air — all the pictures were taken for fun.
All products are stored by the employees of the scientific base in containers right on the street, because the temperature here never rises above 0 degrees.
But Cyprien's blog is not only rich in food photos. The man also shares interesting facts from the life of researchers.
Would you like to personally visit such an unusual place?
