Microbes Discovered In Antarctic Subglacial Lake Whillans

Science Recorder reports: "Scientists drilling in Lake Whillans, a remote body of water buried 2,600 feet below the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, have discovered evidence of living bacteria. The water samples were first removed from the ice sheet at 6:20am on Monday, January 28, by the U.S. research team Whillans Ice Stream Subglacial Access Research Drilling, or WISSARD. Researchers employed a quick test to analyze their samples for potential life by injecting DNA-sensitive dye into the water, and immediately found numerous individual cells glowing green." Above three minute video shows scientist John Priscu discussing need to keep antarctic ice drill free from contamination and use of an attached filitration system to keep drill clean. A link to WISSARD website is here.

UFO War in Antarctica: Fact or Fiction?

Can you say psyop? The presenter writer wants to believe and remains suspicious of clandestine activities on the frozen continent of Antarctica!  Dr. Michael Salla provides succinct synopsis of a doubter's dilemma in article, "UFO War in Antarctica: fact or fiction?":

"According to John Kettler, a former US military contractor and scientist, there is an expanding UFO war that is now taking place in waters off Antarctica. Kettler cites unnamed 'sensitive sources' to substantiate his claims that a US led coalition of naval forces is militarily engaging with hostile extraterrestrials. This UFO war is an extension of alleged naval battles off the coast of San Francisco earlier reported by Gordon Duff from Veterans Today who refers to his own unnamed 'reliable' sources. There is little more than a collection of unnamed sources supporting such allegations, and there is good reason to conclude that Kettler’s and Duff’s claims are part of a psychological warfare operation that may be related to planning for a false flag alien event."

What suggests to present writer disinformation, reader is also informed of UFOs destination!  True, with satellite networks it's possible to track them,  but the information smacks of a finished product - too complete when Kettler claims:

"...20 UFOs, traveling at 25,000 mph, left the Antarctic Ocean in a group and went to Guadalajara, Mexico. Another group of 15, flying at the same speed, went to Argentina. This morning, 12 more emerged and went to Chile."

Again, present writer wants to believe but with only suppositons, it's most likely Project Blue Beam.  An Antarctic UFO war - even if true - opponents may not be alien as recent post covering Russian documentary suggests, "Secret Nazi Base On Antarctica...." A reader can go away convinced between 'Operation High Jump" and "Britain's Secret War in Antarctica," there is something down there worth fighting over!

Secret Nazi Base On Antarctica: Russian Documentary

"Secret Nazi Base On Antartica" provides fuller perspective of German development in the thirties of base 211, attracting attention of Americans that possibly resulted in massive expedition Operation High Jump.  Russian documentary supplies best explanation of events of February 26, 1947, when the operation led by Admiral Richard Byrd took heavy casualties after saucers burst from seas at high speed to inflict heavy losses.  Occult involvement in saucer development by Thule, Vril and Ahnenerbe secret societies are familiar subjects.  Portals or wormholes are reported present at the North and South Poles, and documentary suggests, HAARP is used to track UFOs entering and leaving Earth space!  Just last five minutes on wormholes make Russian video must viewing!

Joseph P Skipper: VLF or Plasma Weapon Station?

Joseph P Skipper of Mars Anomaly Research questions whether Harold E Holt Naval Communications Center on Australia's west coast, is only, a VLF (Very Low Frequency) Station?  Skipper reasons a VLF station could be located anywhere, since VLF follows Earth's curvature.  The researcher, who studies Mars, turns focus to Australia and Antarctica. Skipper engages in  some over-the-top thinking, but will withhold judgement to see whee it leads?  " I suspect this VLF signal transmission facility has been weaponized into a very long range plasma weapon generating facility with electromagnetic properties. I suspect the round raw tight knit plasma fields generated are what the ground disturbance signs are about as particles are charged. Now VLF communication signals alone require tremendous power to generate and I suspect that someone has found a way to utilize that considerable power and attach plasma electromagnetic bundles to the VLF signals and offensively target objects and locations over great distances," declares Skipper.  Has Skipper gone over the edge with extreme notion?

Skipper points out much of Antarctica gets obfuscated by different techniques a costly task on a platform such as Google Earth, and reminds reader, it only prevents the public from seeing what's there as other countries have their own satellite views.  The researcher engages further in his self-styled common sense "2+2" approach:

In speculation, I suspect that its [Holt Naval Station]  proximity to Antarctica and who ever or what ever is there is a clue and plays a roll in this...

The above...image pattern [picture, right]  is called a Metatron Cube. Note that it is very close to the same pattern as the Harold E. Holt VLF station line patterns [picture, left]. Some of you may have a nervous reaction at my revealing this but you need to be aware that this pattern may actually be sacred geometry associated with the Tree of Life in apocryphal text. You should know that these texts rank Metatron as an angel entity second only to YHVH in the hierarchy of spiritual beings.

Do you really think that it is coincidental that such a complex pattern is so exactly followed for just simple VLF transmissions with nuclear missile submarines? In my opinion, this pattern at the VLF site is following the Metatron Cube pattern far too closely for it to be coincidental. It suggests that someone's concept of very intense mysticism and belief system quite apart from science or simple VLF transmissions has taken it seriously enough to authorize a lot of money for this construction. Still think that only simple VLF transmissions are going on here at this site?

Skipper has a point the base does seem modeled on sacred geometry! The researcher, is convinced, there's a big reason for such a massive program of relentless obfuscation of images taken of Antarctica.  Skipper pleads with urgency, "that kind of universal obfuscation [of Antarctica] is legitimate cause for suspicion and results in a need to know the truth. The VLF site here in this report shows a lot of evidence of being used and for something other...than VLF transmissions. IF that something is plasma/electromagnetic weaponization and there is undeclared combat going on with someone under the sea and/or in Antarctica, the public needs to know...."

Does Skipper believe it's a covert Antarctic war with Nazis? The sacred geometry involved in the Holt Naval base's layout suggests an occult connection.  Mars turned Anarctica anomaly researcher, Skipper shares suspicions here. You'll have to read it to find out!

russians analyze data to confirm reached lake vostok

World awaits announcement Russians have drilled into Lake Vostok! BBC News article, "Antarctic lake success uncertain," reports "...Valery Lukin, the Russian Antarctic programme director, has told Nature journal that the claim is premature. He said data from a number of sensors monitoring the drilling had yet to be analyzed." A CBS News Tech page story advises, "...there has been no official confirmation of the team's success. There are no press releases on the website of Russia's Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute, the government agency that oversees the country's polar science expeditions." John Priscu, veteran researcher and University of Montana microbiologist, comments in same article, "there are a lot of rumors going around about penetrating the lake, and we need the Russian program to make the official announcement... If they were successful, their efforts will transform the way we do science in Antarctica and provide us with an entirely new view of what exists under the vast Antarctic ice sheet.'" Is there life in Lake Vostok?

Video Update: Scientists Drill Into a Lost World*

the piri reis map mystery

In 1929, an amazing map painted on parchment (gazelle skin) in 1513 by Turkish Admiral Piri Reis, was recovered from the Imperial Palace in Constantinople, while undergoing conversion to a museum of antiquities. The map represents one third of a larger world map, the remaining pieces are presumed lost forever. An article at Internet Sacred Text Archive reveals controversy that surrounds the Piri Reis Map, stems mainly from a 1966 book by Charles Hapgood, "Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings." The image of Piri Reis' map (pictured) is from the book's first edition. Hapgood believed the map's Antarctic coastline, represented the coast without glaciers and the work of an advanced civilization! An entry at World-Mysteries.com observes, "The northern coastline of Antarctica is perfectly detailed. The most puzzling however is not so much how Piri Reis managed to draw such an accurate map of the Antarctic region 300 years before it was discovered, but that the map shows the coastline under the ice. Geological evidence confirms that the latest date Queen Maud Land could have been charted in an ice-free state is 4000 BC."


There are disagreements over accuracy of claims. Jonathan Crowe, in an article at The Map Room, dismisses claims observing, "as is often the case with pseudoscientific theories about old maps, innocuous explanations are ignored in favour of flights of fancy..".

Another article at the Historic Mysteries website reports, "others argue that it shows evidence of the mapmaker’s skill and ability to measure and perform spherical trigonometry calculations centuries ahead of its time and that it shows proof of a worldwide seafaring civilization existing tens of thousands of years ago."

The article ends on a rhetorical note: "There are many things that fasinate people about the Piri Reis map. It really makes you wonder just how much more has happened thousands of years ago that we have no knowledge of? Was there a civilization far more intelligent than we could ever imagine? If so, what happened to them? Do we face the same kind of fate?"

"Listed below are some of the things that people have noticed about the Piri Reis Map of 1513:

The maker of the map knew the accurate circumference of the Earth, within 50 miles.

The coastline and island that are shown in Antartica must have been navigated before its ice-free period – prior to 4000 B.C.

The map shows the Earth as seen from space."

Graham Hancock recaps the Piri Reis map mystery in a two minute excerpt from, "The Mysterious Origins of Man". The present writer finds the map an enigma, some claims seem indeed fanciful. However, the puzzle of the Antarctic coastline determines the Piri Reis map's enduring fascination!

nazi ufos, antarctica and the battle of los angeles

Clyde Lewis stirred old myths on his Sunday night show, Ground Zero Live, with interview of Douglas Dietrich, a former San Francisco Presidio military librarian, who answered calls for Col. Michael Aquino. Dietrich proved himself, both, articulate and provocative by raising possible links unfamiliar to listeners. The former librarian points to Japanese dirigible tech (pictured) as a likely actor in the 1942 Battle of Los Angeles. Dietrich expressed views on Nazi UFOs, Antarctica and private space programs. Clyde and his guest discussed origins of the term "Black Sun", as derived from a German and Japanese Aryan belief - a Black Hole - lies at the center of every galaxy. The least familiar link made, was perhaps, Operation Argus as another salvo in the secret war against Nazi Flugelrads! Operation Tabarin and Operation High Jump were earlier battles in the secret Antarctic war. You can view more of the guest responding to comments about his take on Roswell here. A highly entertaining, thought-provoking interview that will prick up your ears!

operation high jump

Operation High Jump organized by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd, was ostensibly an exploration expedition to seek feasibility of establishing bases in Antarctica and map the continent. Journalists were suspicious of the true purpose, given the size of the force: 4700 men, 13 support ships and an aircraft carrier, the USS Phillipine Sea. Three operating groups set sail with the Western Group reaching the Marquesas Islands of French Polynesia, on December 12, 1946, to set up weather monitoring stations. The Eastern Group reached Peter I Island in late 1946 about 280 miles off the coast of Antarctica. The Central Group reached the Bay of Whales a natural iceport in the Ross Ice Shelf on January 15, 1947, cleared runways on the ice and dubbed the place Little America IV. The expedition was cut short by six months and ended in late February. Was it a hastily called for retreat?


Operation High Jump rumors persist of greater losses and the suspected result of battle with a Nazi presence. Dozens of Nazi submarines and thousands of their military men remained unaccounted for after the war. These hard facts added credibility to the belief the operation's true intent was to eradicate Station 211 aka Neu Schwabenland. The government files about the operation are still classified to this day!

On March 5, 1947, the "El Mercurio" newspaper of Santiago, Chile ran an article which quoted Admiral Byrd, he “didn’t want to frighten anyone unduly...a bitter reality that in case of a new war the continental United States would be attacked by flying objects which could fly from pole to pole at incredible speeds”. One can add the 1943 comment of German Grand Admiral Karl Donitz, "the German submarine fleet is proud of having built for the Führer in another part of the world a Shangri-La on land, an impregnable fortress", while unsubstantiated, only can be viewed as stoking fires for conspiracy of an "Antarctic Reich".

A good government film, "The Secret Land," narrated by Robert Montgomery, Robert Taylor and Van Heflin about Operation High Jump, is available here.
