4 natural wonder that scientists have discovered on our planet in the fall Bashny.Net

The latest findings in prirodeMir much more amazing than we can imagine. We still find it in new places and make new discoveries, despite the fact that as a kind of living here for more than 20 thousand years. In this collection we have gathered the most significant discoveries of researchers over the past couple of months.

1. Scientists have found in Australia "The Lost World", is home to several unique species zhivotnyh





Over millions of years, a huge piece of land in the mountains of Cape Mellvil in northern Australia was isolated from the rest of the world thanks to the huge rocks. There has never gone before - at least until last month. A group of scientists and their crew went for a walk and found three species, which until now no one even suspected.



Among the new additions to the already bizarre Australian fauna, developed separately from the rest of the world due to the geographic isolation - a monstrously long geckos, frogs and lizards.





These species were found only in one first expedition. Who knows what other new species (or ancient curse) can be detected?

2. under the ice of Antarctica found an active volcano, which sooner or later will start izvergatsya



This month, scientists reported that under the Antarctic ice volcano found that is able to melt all the ice in the southern hemisphere - if you begin to erupt. The volcano was discovered by radio waves reflected from a solid surface under the ice.

Of course, that is, under the Antarctic volcanoes, people knew for a long time, but this volcano is unique because it is the only known active volcano on the mainland. Scientists fear that when the - mind you, not if, but when - it begins to erupt beneath the ice can form millions of gallons of fresh water.

3. In Kenya, found an underground reservoir, where the water will be enough for 70 let



Turkana region in northern Kenya is mainly inhabited by nomadic herders. These people constantly suffer from thirst, as the Turkana - one of the driest places on Earth. Recently, however, scientists have discovered a huge amount of water directly under the ground: according to preliminary calculations, the body of water can provide the whole country with water for the next 70 years.

Hidden Lake was found with the use of satellite and radar technology. The water in it can be much cleaner than conventional groundwater.

4. The researchers found a huge cave with its own weather sistemoy

Last month, the researchers found a series of tunnels in the giant cave of China. Tunnels led them to even greater cave system - it must be said that such a huge cave on our planet has never before been found. It is so large that it has its own weather.







The cave Air Van Dong has its own forests, rivers and clouds, and some of the tunnels can be reached only with the help of ropes or scuba diving.
