Antarctica has long been steeped in mystery and secrecy, from housing the fabled entrance to the hollow Earth to being part of a “barrier” that would delimit the supposed flat Earth.

All of its mysteries are now buried under the ice, however, some signs are starting to emerge that have surprised geologists, archaeologists, scientists, popularizers, and even global leaders.

Professor Ralph Von Frese headed a study team that identified a large crater in 2006. It was encircled by an enigmatic thick mass that stretched for approximately 300 kilometers.

Scientists think that behind kilometers of ice in Antarctica, the remnants of a massive asteroid lie.

At the same time, it’s still a mystery how the Earth managed to survive such a large object impacting it.

Other experts think that a space body exists in Antarctica, but that there is no means to retrieve it and begin examining it at this time. A big-scale expedition demands a vast amount of resources.

The mission’s cost will be equivalent to the cost of a human journey to Mars.

While scientists wait for additional information about the enigmatic item, conspiracy theorists have their own beliefs.

Many people think that a large extraterrestrial spaceship collided with the earth here. Others, on the other hand, think that aliens have built a base there.

Antarctica is a frozen “time capsule” storing lost traces of life long before humans as we know them today, according to those who are acquainted with its properties.
