@KhalaiMakhlooq Thanks for sharing.

I found an interesting video about pyramids.

I and @Möbius Curve were discussing about Nikola Tesla and HAARP in another thread.
Here is the link.

• Ancient fossils of forest trees are discovered, that are more than 260 million years old, even before the period of first dinosaurs

• Antarctica was a lush land full of forests and rivers 250 million years ago. And this landscape supported a diverse set of wildlife, including reptiles

• Scientists have discovered more than a ton of 71 million-year-old fossils in Antarctica. The fossils are mostly from prehistoric marine reptiles and birds, with a large proportion belonging to the mosasaurus

Interesting.

• A secret NAZI military base was discovered in Antarctica by Russians in 2016

A conspiracy theory, I would say, until I see video proof.

ANTARCTICA: NASA IMAGES REVEAL TRACES OF ANCIENT HUMAN SETTLEMENT UNDERNEATH 2.3 KM OF ICE

Washington, D.C. | Recently released remote sensing photography of NASA’s Operation IceBridge mission in Antarctica led to a fascinating discovery when images revealed what some experts believe could be the existence of a possible ancient human settlement lying beneath an impressive 2.3 kilometers of ice.


The intriguing discovery was made during aircraft tests trials of NASA’s Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) lidar technology set to be launched on the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) in 2017, that aims to monitor changes in polar ice.

“There’s very little margin for error when it comes to individual photons hitting on individual fiber optics, that is why we were so surprised when we noticed these abnormal features on the lidar imagery,” explains Nathan Borrowitz, IceBridge’s project scientist and sea ice researcher with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

“As of now we can only speculate as to what these features are but the launching of ICESat-2 in 2017 could lead to other major discoveries and a better understanding of Antarctica’s geomorphological features” he adds.


Although NASA scientist Nathan Borrowitz claims the infrared images are definitely intriguing, other experts claim they are clearly the proof of ancient human engineering

A human settlement buried under 2.3 km of ice

Leading archeologist, Ashoka Tripathi, of the Department of Archaeology at the University of Calcutta believes the images show clear evidence of an ancient human settlement beneath the ice sheet.

“These are clearly features of some sort of human-made structure, resembling some sort of pyramidal structure. The patterns clearly show nothing we should expect from natural geomorphological formations found in nature. We clearly have here evidence of human engineering. The only problem is that these photographs were taken in Antarctica under 2 kilometers of ice. That is clearly the puzzling part, we do not have any explanation for this at the moment,” he admits.

“These pictures just reflect a small portion of Antarctica’s total land mass. There are possibly many other additional sites that are covered over with ice. It just shows us how easy it is to underestimate both the size and scale of past human settlements,” says Dr. Tripathi.

Remnants of a lost civilization

Historian and cartographer at the University of Cambridge, Christopher Adam, believes there might be a rational explanation.


The map of Turkish admiral Piri Reis in 1513 AD shows the “ice less” coastline of Antarctica

“One of history’s most puzzling maps is that of the Turkish admiral Piri Reis in 1513 AD which successfully mapped the coastline of Antarctica over 500 years ago. What is most fascinating about this map is that it shows the coastline of Antarctica without any ice. How is this possible when images of the subglacial coastline of Antarctica were only seen for the first time after the development of ground-penetrating radar in 1958? Is it possible Antarctica has not always been covered under such an ice sheet? This could be evidence that it is a possibility” he acknowledges.

« A slight pole shift or displacement of the axis of rotation of the Earth in historical times is possibly the only rational explanation that comes to mind but we definitely need more research done before we jump to any conclusion.”

ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2), part of NASA’s Earth Observing System, is a planned satellite mission for measuring ice sheet mass elevation, sea ice freeboard as well as land topography and vegetation characteristics, and is set to launch in may 2017.

Russia’s secret Antarctica HIDEOUT? Strange ‘hole’ spotted near old Soviet Union base

RUSSIA built a secret underground base hidden deep in Antarctica, according to outrageous claims made in a bombshell documentary.

Russia: Satellite images suggest hidden base in ANTARCTICA

On March 10, 1959, the Soviet Union set up a research station known as Lazarev on the shelf ice in the region of the Schirmacher Oasis. The station was reinstalled in 1961 into the Oasis and was named Novolazarevskaya and later the Russian Bath in 2007. However, a strange anomaly just 35 miles from the camp has become the centre of a conspiracy scandal over the years.


The strange phenomenon, located on a mountainside, looks like it could be some kind of entrance.

YouTube series “The Real Secrets Hidden in Antarctica,” thinks it could be linked to the nearby Russian base.

The 2017 documentary revealed: “This is one of the most compelling anomalies spotted on satellite imaging.

“It appears to be a domed metal lid over some kind of underground entrance.

“No one has confirmed or debunked this conspiracy theory.”

Just days ago, it was revealed NASA probed another anomaly below the icy continent.

The space agency investigated a lake below another Russian station known at Vostok in a bid to gain a better understanding of Jupiter’s icy moon – Europa.

The surface of this freshwater lake is approximately 4,000m under the ice, which places it at approximately 500m below sea level.

However, scientists ended up finding a magnetic anomaly on the east coast of the lake spanning 65 miles long and 47 miles wide.

They believe it is due to the Earth’s crust thinning, yet conspiracy theorists continue to raise the possibility of a hidden city.

Antarctica BREAKTHROUGH: How scientists were stunned by creature capable of CLONING itself

ANTARCTICA researchers were left stunned by an animal they discovered below the ice capable of living for eternity by cloning itself, a documentary revealed.

Blue Planet: Creature capable of 'cloning itself' found in deep sea

During the filming of David Attenborough’s famous BBC series Blue Planet 2, viewers got a unique insight into just how little our oceans have been explored. Using a Triton submarine, a team of researchers were able to dive 1000m below the surface of Antarctica into an area known as the “midnight zone”. Here, the team uncovered a bizarre creature capable of cloning itself and essentially living forever.


David Attenborough revealed to viewers how the team came across the bizarre creature which is called a Siphonophore.

He said in 2017: “The midnight zone is full of life.

“Down here, in the blackness, creatures live beyond the normal rules of time.


“Siphonophores are virtually eternal.

“They repeatedly clone themselves and some eventually grow longer than a blue whale.”

Siphonophores are a class of marine animals belonging to the phylum Cnidaria.

Although they appear to be a single organism, the specimen is, in fact, a colonial organism composed of a number of small individual animals called zooids.

Each zooid is an individual organism, but its integration with others is so strong that the colony attains the function of a larger organism.

Indeed, most of the zooids are so specialised, they lack the ability to survive on their own.

However, the discovery is arguably not the most bizarre of the series.

Researchers were equally shocked when they found a strange “mutant creature” on the seabed.

In a layer of mud, up to a mile thick, they discovered a unique animal that had mutated itself over the years.

Sir David said in 2017: “The seabed may, at first, appear lifeless, but it is home to a unique cast of mud-dwellers.

“The sea toad – an ambush predator with an enormous mouth and infinite patience.

“This fish has been living for so long here that its fins have changed into something more useful – feet.

“They help it shuffle about on the sea floor.”

The sea toad belongs to a family of deep sea fish known as Chaunacidae, which can be found at depths of up to 2,460 metres.

They have large, globose bodies and short, compressed tails, and are covered with small, spiny scales.

This fish can grow up to 30cm in length and it mutilates its own dorsal fin to become a better predator.

The Oldest Ice on Earth May Be Hiding 1.5 Miles Beneath Antarctica

European scientists looking for some of the oldest ice on the planet have homed in on a particular spot in Antarctica, where they will drill more than 1.5 miles (2.7 kilometers) below the surface of the ice.


Over the next five years, the "Beyond EPICA-Oldest Ice" mission will work at a remote location known as "Little Dome C" to start drilling for ice up to 1.5 million years old, the team announced today (April 9) at the meeting of the European Geosciences Union in Vienna, Austria.


"Ice cores are unique for geosciences because they are an archive of the paleo-atmosphere," said Beyond EPICA's coordinator Olaf Eisen of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany. [Antarctica: The Ice-Covered Bottom of the World (Photos)]


From analyzing gas bubbles, molecules and particles trapped in thin layers of ancient ice, scientists can reconstruct carbon dioxide levels, temperature data and other climate indicators over a long period of time. A major goal of this project will be to understand why the cycle of Earth's ice ages changed in the distant past.

The expedition will build on a past mission, EPICA (the European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica), which took place from 1996 to 2004 at the Concordia research station, jointly operated by France and Italy. The EPICA researchers were able to obtain an ice core with an 800,000-year record of climate data. During this period, the climate flipped from glacial to interglacial periods on a 100,000-year cycle.


The EPICA core, however, "doesn't cover the time between 900,000 and 1.2 million years ago, where we had a transition in the climate system," Eisen told reporters during a press conference.


Prior to 1.2 million years ago, Earth's ice ages are believed to have been alternating on a quicker, 40,000-year cycle. Scientists don't know what happened during the following transition period in the climate system that caused the glacial periods to get longer and colder. The Beyond EPICA researchers hope to find some answers in the ice from Little Dome C as well as data that will help them build climate forecasts for the future.


Over the last three years, the researchers surveyed the region around Concordia as well as the region around Dome Fuji for a potential drill site that would be likely to have 1.5-million-year-old ice.


About 2 miles (3.2 km) above sea level, Little Dome C is about 18 miles (30 km) from Concordia station — or a 2-hour snowmobile ride. The average temperature at the drill site is minus 66 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 54.5 degrees Celsius), and the team will work only the two months during the Antarctic summer, camped out in shipping containers.


The area around Little Dome C is also very dry and hardly sees precipitation, which is good for the goal of the project.

"The smaller the accumulation rate of snow every year, the more years you have in each meter," said project scientist Catherine Ritz, of France's Institute for Geosciences and Environmental Research (IGE).


Having more layers packed in tightly is important because, closer to the bedrock, ice can melt due to the heat from beneath the surface of Earth. Melting at the bottom is the reason the previous EPICA ice core only had layers back to 800,000 years.


"The most exciting information we will be looking at will be squeezed in the deepest part of the core," Carlo Barbante, of the University of Venice, told reporters. "Most probably, the ice as old as 800,000 years to 1.5 million years will be squeezed in the last 200 to 300 meters of ice."


It will likely take the Beyond EPICA team years to reach those ancient layers of ice as they remove 13-foot-long (4 meter), 4 -inch-wide (10 centimeters) tubes of ice at a time. That also means the most important results of the project won't come out until at least 2025.


The European Union-funded project is estimated to cost about €30 million euros ($33.8 million), according to the BBC.

A Mysterious Hole Keeps Opening Up in Antarctica, And Scientists Say It'll Be Back

(NASA Worldview)
ENVIRONMENT

CARLY CASSELLA
5 MAY 2019


In the early 1970s, when satellites first began snapping photos of Earth, scientists noticed a mysterious hole in one of Antarctica's seasonal ice packs, floating on the Lazarev Sea. Come summertime the gap had disappeared, and for decades the strange event went unexplained.


Then, a year and a half ago, during the continent's coldest winter months, when ice should be at its thickest, a giant 9,500-square-kilometre hole (almost 3,700 square miles) suddenly showed up in the same ice pack. Two months later it had grown a stunning 740 percent larger, before once again retreating with the summer ice.

It's taken decades, but scientists think they finally understand why this keeps happening. Using satellite observations and reanalysis data, researchers from New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) have found that these ephemeral holes, known as polynyas, appear to be scars from cyclonic storms.

In September of 2017, as warm air and cold air collided at the South Pole, the authors explain that the swirling inward winds of a cyclone - reaching 117 kilometres an hour (72 mph) and whipping up waves 16 metres high (52 feet) - pushed the Antarctic ice pack in all directions and away from the eye of the storm, like a drill to the water below.

As dramatic as it appears in satellite imagery, the resulting polynya isn't necessarily bad. In fact, these icy punctures can be downright important. As a door between the ocean and the sky, they offer crucial pathways for wildlife, including seals and penguins, and provide habitat for phytoplankton.


These gaps are also powerful influencers of the atmosphere and a potential indicator of climate change.

"Once opened, the polynya works like a window through the sea-ice, transferring huge amounts of energy during winter between the ocean and the atmosphere," says lead author of the new research, NYUAD atmospheric scientist Diana Francis.

"Because of their large size, mid-sea polynyas are capable of impacting the climate regionally and globally as they modify the oceanic circulation."

It is this point that is particularly important. Because while polynyas aren't necessarily disastrous, from what we know their presence can absolutely have an effect on the climate, something that scientists are cautious about given the current state of global warming.

Even if they don't stir up more climactic changes or feedback systems, an abundance of these holes could throw our climate models right out of whack.

"Given their large size in the middle of the ice pack, mid-sea polynyas, through intense deep convection, are capable of impacting the climate locally, regionally, and potentially globally by modifying the oceanic circulation underneath," the authors write in their paper.

"This includes impact on the regional atmospheric circulation, the global overturning circulation, Antarctic deep and bottom water properties, and oceanic carbon uptake."

The range of factors that these holes could suddenly influence is astonishing, and the risk of them occurring more often is high. Under warmer climates, previous research indicates that cyclone activity at Earth's poles will only intensify, and extratropical cyclones (aka mid-latitude cyclones) will move closer and closer to Antarctica.

"Given the link between polynya and cyclones we demonstrated in this study," says Francis, "it is speculated that polynya events may become more frequent under warmer climate because these areas will be more exposed to more intense cyclones."

When it comes to the climate crisis, another atmospheric variable is about the last thing we need.

This study has been published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres.
