As science and technology have advanced, so too has our ability to visit and better understand the vast tundra of Antarctica. Today there are stations located across the continent, placed by various countries as they work together to study the land, the wildlife and all that is hidden below the ice and snow that is first seen upon arrival.
For years there have been rumors that the continent hides a complete hidden city or civilization. One theory that has captivated scientists the world over is the idea that the continent was not always a barren land of ice and snow. A series of images captured by NASA’s Operation IceBridge mission in Antarctica provided what many claim to be proof of exactly that, an ancient human settlement that was hidden from the world under a sheet of ice.
Those in the scientific community believe that this may be another ancient civilization surfacing, or possibly another structure associated with the unknown civilization discovered by the NASA team during Operation IceBridge.
There is no denying that there is something there. Located at the coordinates 69°53’42.03″S 38°42’22.02″E, the crack in the ice definitely reveals something that was hidden within, however with limited knowledge as to what at this time, we are left guessing on the source. Along with the theory about ancient civilizations, others interested in the structure believe that it may be an underground submarine base, frozen contingent, a series of natural tunnels and ridges formed by the movement of water under the ice, or proof that life from another planet was present in the area. In order to determine the origins of the structure further research and analysis will be required.
