Blood Falls, a Natural Time Capsule Containing a Unique Ecosystem
By Atlas Obscura
This five-story, blood-red “waterfall” pours ever so slowly out of the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica’s McMurdo Dry Valley. Geologists first discovered the frozen waterfall in 1911, and believed the red color came from algae. Its true nature turned out to be more spectacular.
Roughly two million years ago, a small body of water containing an ancient community of microbes was sealed beneath the surface of the Taylor Glacier. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, the microbes have remained isolated inside a natural time capsule, in a place with no light, oxygen, or heat.The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the seepage its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the microbial subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within.
More photos of Blood Falls can be seen on Atlas Obscura.(via: Slate.com - Atlas Obscura)

Nintendo releases the Wii U with hardly any first party games
They take their time to develop them
Microsoft and Playstation showing off consoles with no games
Nintendo waiting for both companies to flop at E3
Nintendo suddenly drops a megaton amount of first party games for the Wii U
Everybody flocks to it because the other consoles have a higher price point and less games to offer

Favorite Metroid Head canon
One of my favorite Metroid head canons is that the Varia/Gravity suits aren’t actually suits as much as they are large robot bodies. Because seriously though just look at how far apart her arms are in the Varia suit.
So the idea is that rather than Samus’ arms and legs being where the arms and legs of the suit are she is instead in the center of the suit, with her head poking out of the top.
So the center is shaped like a giant pod but the waist is usually drawn very thin. It goes so far as being WAY too thin for Samus who is canonically 6’2 and 200 lb. This makes her incredibly well built. No, seriously, look up 6’2 and 200 lb on google images. You are going to find nothing but muscular guys wearing a surprisingly small amount of shirts (i.e. none). Here is one that’s not too muscular or defined for reference.
So in essence, Samus is pretty jacked (which is why the way she’s drawn in Zero Suit upsets me to no end). She shouldn’t have a waist NEARLY that small given her build. It’d also make sense because, you know, she has to carry the suit around if she’s actually in it (and in the few cases where here being inside the suit would make sense. Like here.
Here it looks like Samus could easily fit inside. True, though, that it’s still pretty slender and leaves little room for necessary parts and padding we’ll let that one slide. Or here.
Again the waist is a bit too slender but we’ll let that one slide too. It’s starting to look like it’s either bulky arms and legs or a bulky waist. There is no middle ground.
So how do we keep the canon body weight size and shape while still keeping the canon suit? Easy, we make the suit really really big. Big enough for her to comfortable fit inside the pod in the center. Don’t even tell me that’s not possible I mean look at this thing.
It looks fucking huge.
