Lake Vostok Reached


First time accepted submitter Cyberax writes "After 30 years of drilling and weeks of media attention the Antarctic underground lake Vostok has been reached by Russian scientists (translated article).

Scientists are beginning paleoclimatic studies and further exploration of the lake will continue in 2013-2014."
