Antarctica has for years puzzled researchers who submit to long-age theories, especially after the Gamburtsev mountain range in central Antarctica was discovered in 1957. These mountains are about as big as the Alps, yet are buried under nearly a mile and a half of ice. As of October 2008, an international team of research scientists is preparing to survey the range in detail.

National Geographic News recently stated that a species of Russian moth with a thirst for human blood demonstrates “evolution at work.”¹ The moth, Calyptra thalictri, was filmed boring into a researcher’s thumb, evidently to draw a blood meal.
