Loki's Castle, the first mystery.

Loki's castle location - The K2p Blog

Today´s mystery: Loki's castle, is an underwater place located between Norway and Greenland, in the Artic Ocean. 

I think this is one of the most scary places on Earth because it is dark and it kind of looks like dead corals.

There is almost no information from this place.
Scientists cannot find the exact deepness of this underwater structure, they say it can measure as big as a skyscraper.

Loki's castle was recently discovered in 2005. Temperatures are low, but sometimes high, and sunlight cannot be seen.
Scientists say it measures about 2400 meters, and that is just an average depth reported in 2010

On May, 2015, a group of swedish scientists presented a new discovery of a new microbe which represents a missing link in the evolution of complex life. The research provides more information about the development of Eukaryotic cells, the unit that allows larger biomasses such as plants and human bodies to develope.
