the American engineers have developed a stand-alone mini-submarine designed for the study of the seas, hidden under the ice of Antarctica. The probe Icefin was launched in the Ross sea through a specially cut hole and filmed the first video about ice life.



using submarines scientists were able to get footage of the amazing underwater biocenosis of anemones, sea stars, sponges and other sea creatures. In addition, the probe allows you to collect data about the influence of the ocean on the properties of ice.



According to the project Manager Britney Schmidt, the hardware probe can form the basis for a device intended for search ice life on other planets of the Solar system.
