Have Aliens Visited Antarctica?
The sheer vastness of Antarctica is stunning. Despite the fact that it is the fifth largest continent, containing 70 percent of the world’s freshwater, the majority of its surface remains largely unexplored – not to mention what could possibly lie beneath the ice.
Antarctica’s discovery by the Western world remains contentious as far as crediting a single person, but it is generally accepted that the discovery occurred sometime around 1820. Though there have been alternative theories positing that its discovery may have occurred centuries earlier by ancient civilizations that potentially utilized extraterrestrial technology.
A WARMER CONTINENT
The evidence of an earlier discovery of Antarctica might be found in the Ottoman Piri Reis Map dated 1513 — shortly after Columbus’ discovery of the Americas. The Piri Reis mapping appears far more advanced than typical 16th century cartography, leading some to ascribe to theories that the map may be proof of the presence of “off-worlders,” or Antarctica aliens with advanced technology.
Dr. John Weihaupt, an emeritus professor of Geology at the University of Colorado Denver, says he believes a discovery of the continent prior to the 19th century was made. Though he says the actual means of discovery remain unknown.
Some believe the Piri Reis map shows a subglacial topography of Antarctica that harbored life during a period of warmer global climates. A study by scientists from LSU and Rice University found deposits of follis pollen in layers of sedimentary rock, indicating a tundra warm enough for plant growth as recently as 12 million years ago. However, theories focusing on the Piri Reis Map would suggest a warmer Antarctic climate more recently.

Aliens in Antarctica, Pyramids and Out of Place Structures
The discovery of several four-sided pyramids has ignited curiosity. Some claim that the pyramids are the work of ancient or alien civilizations, while others say that they are simply nunataks — protruding peaks of mountains buried beneath the ice that have been shaped by erosion.
However, the distinctly shaped sides of each face are what alternative theories see as evidence of the pyramids being man-made. An additional dome-shaped structure protruding from beneath the ice has raised further questions and perpetuated the belief of an ancient civilization buried beneath that the Ottomans may have been aware of or contacted.
Typically when one brings up the topic of anomalous entities on our planet’s southern tundra, Admiral Byrds’ Antarctic expeditions, Operation Highjump and Operation Deepfreeze, are mentioned in the same breath.
Between the time of the Great Depression and WWII, Admiral Richard E. Byrd of the U.S. Navy pioneered explorations of both poles. A8fter a multitude of trips to the arctic territories, there is one Byrd narrative that sticks out more than the rest: his record-setting flight over the North Pole.
According to an alleged diary entry written during his polar flight, Byrd came across a warm, lush climate with Mammoth-like creatures and an ancient human race that had been residing within the Earth.
His plane was commandeered mid-air and landed for him by some entity — what some say were Antarctic aliens, or what others claim where a race of entities living inside the Earth who intercepted his plane with saucer-shaped aircraft. Upon landing, he was met by emissaries of some previously unknown civilization, who expressed their concern about humanity’s use of atomic bombs during WWII and employed Byrd as their ambassador to return to the U.S. government and relay their sentiment.

Is Rh-Negative Blood Alien In Origin?
Is Rh-Negative Blood Type Alien in Origin?
As humans, we believe we evolved from apes, and the Rh factor in our blood even derives its name from the Rhesus Macaque. But when it comes to the antigens in our blood, there’s a small percentage of the population with a strange anomaly, leading some to question if Rh-negative blood is alien in origin.
History of Rh-Negative Blood
Discovered in 1940 by Dr. Karl Landsteiner and Alexander S. Wiener, the Rh factor, named after the Rhesus monkey, is a protein present on the surface of red blood cells. Blood that lacks this protein is classified as Rhesus-negative or Rh-negative.
There are 35 blood group systems organized by our genetic structure, each producing specific antigens—molecules that trigger immune responses. In the Rh system, there are 61 antigens, with the D antigen determining whether blood is Rh-positive or Rh-negative. This sensitive protein can react negatively if it encounters Rh-positive blood.
When an Rh-negative woman is pregnant with an Rh-positive baby, her body may see the fetus as a foreign threat and produce antibodies that attack it, leading to a condition called hemolytic disease. Fortunately, Rh-D immunoglobulin can prevent this reaction, ensuring the safety of both mother and baby.
Rh-negative blood plays a crucial role in blood transfusions and maternal-fetal health, underscoring its importance in understanding Rh blood groups and human genetics.
