An explorer of Canadian origin entered the dangerous Darvazá crater, better known as the “Gate to Hell”, with the purpose of taking soil samples that were later examined by the expedition’s microbiologist. According to the researchers, the evidence collected from the ground provided important clues about “life in extreme environments.”
George Kourounis became the first explorer to visit a fearsome burning crater located in Turkmenistanan area that is known as the “Hell’s Gate” due to the high temperatures that the 1000 ° Caccording to the British newspaper The Sun.
The Canadian explorer entered the burning pit that burned for more than 40 years in the desert.
Among the molten rocks and burning gases, George Kourounis could be seen, equipped with a silver protective suit. For 15 minutes, the man remained in the crater wearing a breathing apparatus and a custom-designed Kevlar harness.
The protagonist of the expedition undertook the risky journey through the “Gate of Hell” to gather more information about extreme environments.
There he discovered a series of findings that, according to the Canadian, contributed evidence about the existence of extraterrestrial activity on our planet.
“The mission and goal behind this whole expedition was to take some samples of the soil at the bottom (sand, basically) and see if there are any Extremophilic bacteria living there,” said George Kourounis.
According to the explorer, the possible existence of some of these bacteria would be a clear signal about “life in these extreme environments.”
“There are planets that have been discovered outside our solar system that have a very hot and methane-rich environment, similar to what is in the crater,” Kourounis explained.
“So, in essence, we were looking for extraterrestrial life right here on Earth”detailed the explorer, who took samples of the soil from the “Gate of Hell.”
These samples were delivered to Dr. Stefan Green, the expedition’s microbiologist.
After examining the samples, the scientist confirmed Kourounis’ suspicions.
Indeed, Some types of bacteria were discovered in the soil at the bottom of the crater.

These Extremophiles, according to Dr. Stefan, are “enriched” due to the peculiar conditions of the environment, for example, the high temperature of the “Gate to Hell” and the low levels of nutrients.
Next to this discovery of “unexpected” life in one of the most inhospitable places on Earththe “Gate to Hell” resembles an alien landscape, according to George.
“The orange glow of the flames makes the ground completely orange and the crater walls look orange,” the explorer said.

The explorer compared the “Gate of Hell” to Mars
“It really reminds me of being in a place like Mars, where you have that orange or red soil.”he illustrated.
Several hours after the risky feat, the Canadian-born explorer admitted that he was still feeling nervous.
“I can tell you that when you’re standing on the edge of this gigantic crater filled with fire, it’s intimidating.”confessed Kourounis, whose statements were reproduced in The Sun.
Despite its apocalyptic appearance, the “Gate of Hell” is not a dark place. “It wasn’t dark at all, in fact you are surrounded by flames, so everything has this orange tone,” the specialist noted.
When George Kourounis descended into this dangerous area, many questions plagued him such as: “Will these ropes that hold me survive?”, “Will the air be breathable?”.

“I was in a place where no human being had ever been. It was like stepping on a strange planet,” revealed the explorer, who described his foray into the “Gate of Hell” as a trip that was “exciting, adventurous, dangerous, a world first and a contribution to science.”
The area is also known as the Darvazá well, a crater that remained lit for more than 40 years. A drilling accident caused Soviet scientists to set it on fire to burn off excess gas.
As soon as the Canadian explorer heard a rumor that the Turkmen government was planning to extinguish the flames, he decided to visit the place.
He had faced volcanoes before and revealed that his goal, in addition to walking on the surface of the fire pit, was to collect soil samples for analysis.
