A satellite observes “something prominent on the ice” in Antarctica, and NASA reveals what it is

Scientists in Antarctica were baffled after NASA detected “something rising on the ice” by a satellite, prompting the US space agency to send a person to investigate.

The frozen region is a scientific haven for more than 1,000 researchers throughout the year, observing climate change and studying Earth’s history. And arid landscapes give them access to an unspoiled world, where they can complete their research, despite temperatures dropping to minus 90 degrees Celsius.

Conditions in parts of the region are so harsh that scientists rarely visit them, and instead use satellite data to complete their work.

However, Science revealed in its “What on Earth?” How one of the images that appeared to appear as if something had experienced a “forced landing” leaves the experts in awe of them.

Aviation journalist Joe Pappalardo said: “To me, it seems like something landed there very quickly until it stopped. Maybe something shattered there. When you think of something happening in this part of the world, you relive the worst air disaster in history.” New Zealand. ”

The series detailed the devastating events of the Mount Erebs disaster. The narrator said, “The collision theory was gaining more power when investigators discovered that the photo was taken near the site of the world’s most catastrophic aviation accident.”

“At 7.21 am on November 28, 1979, Air New Zealand Flight 901 took off from Auckland Airport on a sightseeing tour of Antarctica. The crew reported clear weather and good visibility. But as the plane approached Mount Erebs, there was a strange optical illusion.” And a frightening thing known as bleaching deceives the pilots, “which led to the collision of the plane with Mount Airbus and thus the death of all 257 passengers and crew.

However, analyst Mark Dantonio argued that the feature discovered in the photo is not like the product of a plane crash.

“It looks like someone was shoveling the ice to make a giant groove,” he said. “But if we look at this thing here, this rock appears small in shade, it’s a high feature.”

The narrator explained in detail how quickly NASA supported this theory. He added, “The shadow indicates that it is not low in the ice, but that something rises above it.”

NASA scientists, led by Dr. Kelly Brent, traveled to Antarctica to verify the exact nature of the discovery.

She revealed, “I found a seven-mile wall of jagged ice jutting out from the frozen seas of McMurdo Sound. It is a rare kind of feature of glaciers created by millions of tons of ice flowing from the base of Mount Erebus into the frozen seas.”
