<prompt> Fingqa isihloko: Endaweni enkulu emhlophe yase-Antarctica, elinye iqhwa liba bomvu ngendlela eshaqisayo. Eyaziwa ngokuthi i-Blood Falls, umbala wayo omangalisayo uvela emanzini anosawoti anensimbi aneminyaka eyizigidi ezimbili ubudala aboshwe ngaphansi kweqhwa. Manje, ngokokuqala ngqá, ososayensi baye bathatha amasampula angangcolisiwe ekujuleni kweqhwa benethemba lokuthola ukuphila kwamagciwane. Endaweni enkulu emhlophe yase-Antarctica, elinye iqhwa liba bomvu ngendlela eshaqisayo. Eyaziwa ngokuthi i-Blood Falls, umbala wayo omangalisayo uvela emanzini asolwandle anensimbi aneminyaka eyizigidi ezimbili ubudala aboshwe ngaphansi kweqhwa. Bakholelwa ukuthi ama-extremophiles okungenzeka aphila ngaphansi komhlaba angaba ahlukile ekhonweni lawo lokusinda futhi angase asize ngisho nasekufuneni ukuphila kwamanye amaplanethi. Ososayensi basanda kuthumela i-probe eqhweni leTaylor Glacier ukuze bayokhipha amasampula anosawoti emanzini avela emthonjeni omkhulu onikeza lesi sici esinamabala abomvu. UJill Mikucki, umsizi uprofesa wesayensi yezinto ezincane eziphilayo eNyuvesi yaseTennessee, watshela i-Antarctic Sun: Lokhu kuzoba isampula elithakazelisayo ongazidlala ngalo. Wachaza ukuthi umbala obomvu ojulile weBlood Falls ubangelwa ukuchitheka kuketshezi olunosawoti olunensimbi eningi. Amakhemikhali alo ashintshwa amagciwane, aguqula izakhi zesulfure nezensimbi ukuze asinde. Lesi sithombe siyisikhungo sokuprakthiza esiphezulu seTaylor Glacier. Umbala obomvu ojulile we-Blood Falls ubangelwa ukukhishwa ketshezi olunensimbi, olunosawoti. Ikhemikhali yalo lishintshwa amagciwane, aguqula isulfure nensimbi ukuze aphile. Iphrojekthi i-Midge Minimally Invasive Direct Glacial Exploration, eholwa uProfesa Mikucki iye yathuthukisa umshini oyingqayizivele, obizwa ngokuthi i-EnEx-IceMole. Lesi sithombe sibonisa i-IceMole isilungele ukusebenza. Lapho uketshezi luye lwaba ne-oxidization phezu kwalo, ludala umbala obomvu njengegazi. Kodwa ukuze bafunde okwengeziwe ngaleli gciwane, ososayensi babedinga amasampula ayexutshiwe. Iphrojekthi i-Midge Minimally Invasive Direct Glacial Exploration, eholwa uProfesa Mikucki, yasungula umshini oyingqayizivele, owabizwa ngokuthi i-EnEx-IceMole. Kubukeka njengebhokisi lensimbi elingunxande elinekhanda lethusi nesikulufu seqhwa esingancibilika eqhweni,...  <response>: I-Blood Falls iyindlela yokuphuma yamanzi anosawoti angcoliswe yi-iron oxide e-Antarctica. Izinto eziphilayo ezihlala lapho ziye zakwazi ukusinda ezimweni ezinzima. Ikhono lazo lokusinda lingasiza ekufuneni ukuphila okungezona ezemvelo ohlelweni lwethu lwelanga. Ngokokuqala ngqá, ososayensi baye bathola isampula elingangcolisiwe. Manje sebeyihlaziya ukuze bafunde okwengeziwe ngalezi zidalwa eziyingozi.
