I picked up a new photo from inside the giant hole that suddenly appeared in the Earth's surface, and images quickly spread around the world with increasing interest in scientific views of this phenomenon.
The multiplicity of theories pay the government authorities in Yamal to call a mission of experts to find out the real reason for the appearance of the hole in the ground in this region.

I picked up the scientific mission of many important images of the slot, including by helicopter, and the pictures were published in the newspaper The Siberian Times, the scientists also used satellite images from Russian to see an instant form the slot.
The data indicate that the mission to the slot depth of 70 meters, and in the glacial lake bottom and Tnsal water ice on the walls of the hole corroded.

Despite the insistence of the team of scientists that hole, "a natural phenomenon", but they emphasize the need for further study to determine the reasons for their formation like this huge and deep.
Scientists have observed also that the aperture diameter is smaller than Kdrōh previously, said Andrei Plekhanov, a researcher at the Center for State Scientific Research Arctic The nozzle hole take the form of elliptical rather than circular, what makes the measurement aperture diameter accurately is difficult, but they appreciate by about 30 meters, With the addition of the burnt edges of the measure becomes a diameter of about 60 meters.

Scientists have been able to go down into the hole, but they were unable to get to the bottom, and noted that the ice accounts for about 80% of the components on the walls so that the bottom has been taken gradually to melt under the heat of the sun.
Some scientists likely to be high summer temperature in the region of Yamal past two years 2012.2013, the impact may be in the slot, but others believe that the best theories put those attributes posed to the causes of "internal" out of the ground does not "foreign."
Scientists say: "We can now say with certainty that under the influence of internal processes in the ground there was a" centrifugal "of ice, and that what happened was not an explosion, which means that there were not associated with the heat of the opening is."

This calls for speech theory emerged in the eighties of the last century, scientists have neglected for several years, and says that the Yamal area lakes were formed due to such "natural processes" that occur in the ice beneath the surface of the earth.These processes have been happening since about the year 8000, and perhaps now is the repeated, ie, we are witnessing a new phenomenon of the lake again.
The proof of this theory means that we Nasr natural process is unique, the foundation was formed in scenic nature of the Yamal Peninsula.
On the future of the pit, said Marina Liebman, the researcher first at the Institute of the cryosphere of the Earth branch of Siberia to the Russian Academy of Sciences: "the walls of the crater will melt down, and with high temperatures in the summer there will be no time to freeze again, the water will top the water level inside the pit, and we are probably in front of the formation of a new lake.

This has scientists took samples of soil and ice in it, and sent it to a laboratory for the study.
