1996 More than 70 lakes had been identified beneath the thick Antarctic ice sheet from ice-penetrating radar
1990 The hole above the Lake Vostok 12,000 feet under HALF million year old ice drill site did not penetrate the lake as it was for climate data ice cores rather life signs & has been kept open for 30 years with kerosene antifreeze. but
2012 More than 140 lakes had been identified
2012/02/03 fox missing scientists were Russian scientists at Lake Vostok six days radio silence
2012/02/09 8:25 p.m. Moscow time Russian scientists confirmed they breached the Lake & they plan to keep the hole open until they can return during the next research season & the Russian scientists started sampling the lake water that's come up and frozen inside the borehole. BUT Bringing up the ice samples could contaminate them, since the Russian team isn't using clean technology in the upper part of the borehole.

2013/03/07 big surprise! Russians found New bacterial species from antarctic lake vostok frozen lake water ,

2013/07/?? BUT 'mericans identified 1,623 of the 3,507 "unique gene sequences" 94% were from bacteria 6% were from Eukarya BUT the drilling equipment was not sterilized so ALL of the DNA may be contamination from decades of top melt, kerosene & dirty drilling
