Can you quote all those links from a 6 year archive from memory?

It is a giant arena.

It's only five years. ;')

Looks to me like what we have here is comet envy.

I suspect there’s some really interesting stuff under all those MILES of ice down there. Not say anything ET-like... just regular really interesting geology, biology, and maybe a couple of other -ologies.

For example: it seems there’s been discovered a huge freshwater lake, with liquid water buried under miles of ice. Being heated from below perhaps? Don’t know. Any life in it? Don’t know that either... but whatever’s there has been isolated from the rest of the planet for many millions of years. Would love to take a peek and see what’s there.
