Evidence of the Lost Tribes in Antartica?

Actually no! But nevertheless, today, we had a great talk at the lab, as part of the bi-weekly lab talks, by Dr. Rafi Netzer, about his recent trip to the Southern Atlantic Ocean and the Antartica. Rafi, who has a PhD in ecology, showed absolutely fantastic pictures of the scenery and wildlife that he saw on the trip, and talked about the very interesting logistics of the trip, the geography of this fascinating zone, and the ecological and biological background.

In particular, the fascinating pictures of the birds that he saw, and photographed were quite impressive.

And no, there was no signs of the 10 lost tribes - only penguins…

Here is a picture that Rafi sent me - him and a bunch of friends.

Who said that we don’t deal with interesting topics in the lab talks!

Aren,
You’ll be surprised, but the Mormons believe (at least ONE of their theories) that the lost Ten Tribes are living in the North Pole. Read R. Clayton Brough’s “The Lost Tribes” (1979).
