The Why Files: Operation Podcast
About this episode
In Antarctica's restricted zones, something dangerous lurks beneath the ice. When a Russian team drilled into Lake Vostok, they discovered more than just ancient water.

Two scientists died under mysterious circumstances, and the official reports don't match witness statements. Military operations, classified facilities, and blurred satellite images hint at darker secrets.

From massive spider-like creatures to shape-shifting predators, Antarctica's mysteries run deeper than anyone imagined. What are they trying to hide at the bottom of the world?
