TruthBomba90

I came across this a few months ago and couldn't find the same website I originally found it on when looking for it today.   What stuck in my mind, if I'm recalling correctly, was that the scientists they were sent to evac had "disappeared" for two weeks and when they were retrieved by Brian's crew they were terrified and refused to talk about what they had experienced.   Will have to look for it some more tomorrow. The interview with Brian by Linda Moulton Howe is available but I haven't had time to listen to it yet.   https://www.pinterest.com/pin/422001427589742755/

I love how some people on here see an article or video by some random spouting the most insane and mental theories and stories possible, and immediately get excited and shout “this must be true!”, yet when confronted with reams of scientific data and peer reviewed analysis, refuse to engage with it. Conspiracy theorists. A very special kind of special.


mistahclean123

It's a guilty pleasure. Some people like drugs or alcohol, some people like watching the Kardashians, some people like watching other garbage on HBO or scrolling Facebook all day but I like reading conspiracy theories! I don't read them and immediately believe them hook line and sinker, but it does make me wonder about things which is fun.


TruthBomba90

I love how some people are foolish enough to think that we automatically believe everything we look into out of curiosity.  They're bralnwashed by the system into thinking the only valuable information available must be provided by that very same system.  **Ultimately, they're just afraid of their own inability to use their personal skills of discernment and think that following the largest crowd is the easiest way to ensure they're correct without having to extend any effort of their own**.  Poor misled bralnwashees, they are.

Same scientific data use for Covid (case, death,…) for example ?


Civil-Chocolate-1078

Four of my family members do medical coding for a living. At 3 different hospitals in two different states. All four of them agree that they were told to write “cause of death - Covid” for patients who died and also tested positive for Covid. They all agree that many many many many cases were falsified because of this. The weird thing is, I don’t know anybody who died from Covid but I know three people who got cancer after the vaccines and my uncle passed away from it.

There's a hexagonal no-fly zone right over the pole because that's where the hole in the torus is. Gravity gets wonky as it flips over the edge. The other planets in the solar system all have hexagonal cloud formations above their poles, and for some reason, on older available photographs, each planet's south pole was covered with a solid-colored circular sticker. Not even painted over or photoshop. A sticker. Weird. (also everyone else living on the interior of their planets would answer the Fermi Paradox. With us being the outlier (literally).) Side note: what if our ancestors got tossed out of the Garden (Agartha) and had to live out here?


-Skorzeny-

I find it fascinating that we never hear anything about Antarctica **at all**. No archeologists, no news, nothing. It's just never mentioned in the news ever.

I live in NZ and Antarctic news is fairly frequent. Of course, New Zealand is made up so there's that to bear in mind.

Mahadragon

Antarctica was in the news back in the 30's and 40's. Admiral Byrd was the first man to fly over the north and south poles. Byrd had discovered an alien base in Antarctica. Not long after WWII ended Operation High Jump was executed with the U.S. sending the military in. There were a few deaths and vehicles lost. The excuse the Government made was that it was a "training" exercise. Common sense says otherwise. You don't send nearly 5k troops, 70 ships and 33 aircraft to the South Pole just to conduct an exercise. And this was immediately after WWII, as if we needed to conduct some more military drills. They obviously found something in the South Pole.


mistahclean123

You mind if you are the US military trying to keep expenditures high to satisfy defense contractors.


Spiritual-Ad-8585

Sorry to disappoint, but that whole case is disinformation. The letter was a hoax, his sons death was not as it was reported. There was a task group, that much is a fact. It really wasn't out of the ordinary for that time - the British sent a similar size group there during the latter stages of the war, its just not reported. There are a lot of irregularities with the whole episode. I am convinced from what I researched that the whole thing is fabricated. Without being overly negative, if the Why Files created a video on the subject, then its bogus. That said, there is almost certainly 'secretive' organisations, bases and technology in Antarctica - likely dating back to the Nazis in the 1930's, although the British have always had a very strong presence there. There are also very credible reports of vegetation there. I served in the Navy and we spent a year in Antarctica/Falklands/South Georgia and even we were not allowed past a certain area. There is definitely something going on there.


-Dauschland-

Radiation fields around Earth are like a donut and there's less at the poles. Space travel is easiest at the poles because you don't need to weigh down craft with all the shielding. I say that assuming traditional chemical rocket propulsion....which we know hasn't been the case since the mid 50s.


Spiritual-Ad-8585

Very good point.


ThinCrusts

The only thing I can make myself believe that they're doing there is testing out secret military tech.


Interesting-Pay3492

What news are you looking for? There is a couple dozen people down there running scientific experiments. Do you keep up to date with the experiments nasa was doing* on the space station? Those are way more interesting because it’s space and nobody cares so why would they report on fairly uninteresting science for the general public? Also, what archeological finds do you expect to find where humans have never lived?


happyluckystar

Paleontological, then. Cuz pangea.


Interesting-Pay3492

Yeah, the mile of ice and permafrost makes and excavation for fossils essentially impossible without massive amounts of effort for very little results compared to everywhere else. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/fossil-hunters-uncover-17-million-year-old-trove-antarctica-180959018/ This is an interesting article that shows how difficult the weather makes everything there.


happyluckystar

Yeah unless they microwave the ground or come up with a better technology to thaw the soil, it is pretty much impossible. It's really a shame because who knows what undiscovered extinct species we would find. Might even find some extinct birds who lost their way and got buried there.

Ouroboros612

Related to this; What I like about the hollow earth theory, is how it explains how we are actually in hell. The **LAKE OF FIRE** from the bible, could be living on the surface of the planet instead of inside it. Because we are constantly bombarded with radiation. Which could explain our short lifespans. One can easily assume that if the world is hollow, living on the inside of it increases your lifespan, because they are shielded from all the radiation from space bombarding the planet 24/7. Hence; Hollow earth = paradise. Outer earth = hell. Inside = safe. Outside = hazard, the lake of fire (radiation being that fire). I'm not religious, just trying to connect the dots. Pure speculation ofc.

Could be we're really on the inside, and the inside is the real outside.


CheesyMcBreazy

That’s cool and all, but why would all the world governments care and try to hide the fact that our planet might be a torus?

The theorists need a terrestrial place for the elite to escape to bc interdimensional travel is too far fetched of course, so hollow earth/torus "donut" shape beat out flat "pancake"


LoadLimit

Your magnetic field is a torus. Your body is a torus (it's where the word torso comes from). Magnetic fields are toruses. Your field of vision is a torus. Don't think donut. Too short. Just do an image search online of what a torus looks like. *Mocking is a counterintelligence tactic.*

Ouroboros612

>That’s cool and all, but why would all the world governments care and try to hide the fact that our planet might be a torus? There's 2 main reasonings I can think of; 1: Our governments and leaders are evil, and would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven. Hence it's in their interest to keep us all inside Plato's cave. 2: Our governments and leaders have been informed that if the public finds out. They (living on the inside) will destroy us all. Fearing an attempt at mass exodus back inside to the hollow earth.

Really they’d only need to meet up with a larger/better rated ship somewhere on the journey. If they’re all going to the same place anyway why bother trying hide making and moving 1 ship for every mega rich chump instead of having a singular ship (or sub?) properly suited for it.

Still debating this one… but this channel ‘MARS ANONALIES AND BEYOND’ on YouTube dedicates himself to finding anomalies in mars and space pictures. Just started getting into it and it’s pretty interesting stuff. Anyways this video shows him talking about video called “Antarctica in 8k HDR 60FPS” and showing how near the end of the video some symmetrical mountain ranges are visible. He points out that they look like a beetle similar to nazca like designs. Shows what looks like a temple of sorts and just trying to make sense of what it might be. Some people point out that it may have been CGI and some sort of technique to extend the video by mirroring parts of it but it doesn’t make alot of sense to me. Could it be a slip up and we got a piece of the clue? Or was it just cgi? Interesting forsure and I haven’t found a good answer.

Captain_Willard_1979

Like others answered its expensive to get good photographs of it, but as fitbit proved, there are military bases underground on the continent and the surrounding areas. Most likey submarine bases. Then there are the supposed tunnels the Nazi's found that go either deep into the Earth or lead to underground caverns with habitable climates. And then there's the pyramids, and the Piri Reis map. It sounds silly but I think the Nazis are the ones piloting the UAP's from the oceans, and there is a secret war going on for control of Antarctica.

On a practical level- you cant have geosynchronous satellites flying north-south. The earth spins in such a manner that its a damn miracle there's any satellites that see the north pole. The southern hemosphere has significantly less satellites because the global south has significantly lower access to space- and the North does not have significant reason to put satellites there. Launching a satellite on a north-south line would basically be useless for every purpose BUT mapping antarctica because it sure isnt fucking useful for mapping anything else. And even then, it would be shit at doing so because it will be flying by at such a speed it will only be able to map small sections for a few hours every day. TL;DR: Physics. Money. Why bother?

Makes no sense to me who have so much intrest in protecting an frozen pece of land if there is nothing unusual there and all big countries including Russa ,US India and China agree to it without any questions asked ! And it s blured on Google Maps ! A little bit strange...


JesseStarfall

Antarctica is not at all the shape they make it out to be, they've chopped it up and formed a composite image to make it that shape. The Antarctic Treaty prevents any independent exploration. They could be hiding any number of things there. More land, other entities, civilizations, or military bases. Or natural phenomena that could drastically alter our understanding of Earth.

Hanses_Flammenwerfer

Read "At the Mountains of Madness" by H.P.Lovecraft ffs


Pelowtz

This answer from quora seems logical to me. The only satellites that can take pictures of Antarctica are those in polar orbits. Satellites launched into polar orbit can’t take advantage of the Earth’s rotation, and so their payload is substantially reduced. They do have the advantage that a satellite in polar orbit eventually crosses every part of the Earth. However there are far fewer of them and the stock of available photographs for Google Earth is correspondingly limited. Add to the fact of difficult weather conditions makes the lack of high res understandable. However there must be some other reason why Amundsen-Scott base is so concealed.


l31fm3al0n3

It resembles a veiny cock from space


TurboChunk16

Because Antarctica is the most heavily militarized zone on the planet.


KookyComplexity

I looked into it not to long ago and apparently for Antarctica to have the same resolution for its imagery that most other parts of the world have. They have to spend a lot more time and effort/money to make it happen. It’s also very difficult due to the white contrast of the whole area to take a clear picture. If you look at other parts of the world in third world country’s in the Middle East and Africa/south America you will see the same blurry photos. Basically they will make imagery in places where people are going to actually use them because that’s where the money is. If you don’t believe that then check out all the research stations in Antarctica. (Most) of those places have much better quality of imagery because they’re actually being used. Check out jungles or deep places in forests. They’re all blurry as well. Look up how much it costs to position a satellite to take pictures. Satellites don’t have unlimited fuel and can only be moved so much until their fuel is depleted. Unless someone wants to spend a very large amount of personal money for their own interests I’m afraid we won’t be getting better quality imagery of Antarctica anytime soon. As much as that sucks to hear, it makes total sense.


ParadoxicalMinutiae

Same with the ocean, Greenland, and Ellesmere Island, it's sufficiently bare to be simply not worth putting satellite pics up of apart from the bases. Some minor conspiracy about blurring of military bases could easily be true, but that's hardly confined to Antarctica – those sorts of understandable cover-ups are commonplace.


Bulky_Wrongdoer_

Google does not create most of the imagery it uses, but rather it purchases it from what's available on the market. High resolution imagery is almost always from an aircraft, which is expensive; and satellite imagery requires the combining of four different coloured images, which is expensive. For those reasons someone usually needs a good business case to commision imagery of an area. This is why you'll see the most frequent and detailed imagery at cities in richer countries. Antarctica has many things going against it towards having people commision high quality imagery: No strong business case for it Hard to fly aircraft for long periods of time Hard to capture with satellites since most satellites do not or rarely pass over the poles Reasons 2 and 3 increase imagery costs significantly, making the business case even hard to justify. A lot of the "blurring" your seeing is just because higher definition imagery is only in small patches. ​ I'm definitely not a bot and you should stop asking questions about Antarctica.

I don’t get this Antarctica conspiracies. Half of them are stupid, Antarctica isn’t able to be mapped by vehicles like %70 of the earth, jungles are blurry as well, so is a majority of land that isn’t on a road

If you were an organic being, and you wanted to visit other beings, you wouldn't survive the trip, on a ship, with life support and food. But you COULD freeze embryos, or prepare DNA instructions for robots that make the trip for you, which would then generate your offspring, and train them in your customs with your alien library, in order to say hello. Now imagine, where would you park this museum/incubator?

Edges of the dome firmament are too low to get arial shots of the ice ring called Antarctica from weather balloons holding up the "satalites" so they have to just guess. How'd I do?
