Report Text - Bloody Waterfall

This is one of the rare natural phenomenon that occurs, what is not from a water source that flows to a waterfall there can be blood flow continuously but rather slowly. This happens on a Glacier in Antarctica precisely in lembahMc Murdo south polar region. The first time a geologist found a waterfall frozen in 1911 and they see strange things that they think is the color red is a color that flows derived from red algae, but the true sifta was more than they expected.

Approximately 2 million years ago trapped under the Taylor Glacier water stream that contains a collection of ancient microbes, and there they were isolated under very thick ice layer naturally, evolved independently of these microbes live without light, heat and oxygen, and there they are trapped at a very high salinity conditions and rich in iron so as to provide a red color similar to iron in the blood.
Scientists estimate the fluids like blood is derived from ancient microbes trapped in ice cracks


And falls occur due to a crack of glacier allowing subglacial water is coming out, forming a waterfall without polluting the ecosystems therein. The suspect eventually ilmuwanpun of these conclusions could be very likely to occur also in other planets planets such as Mars and Jupiter, this bloody waterfall is really a wonderful natural phenomenon both visually and scientifically.
