HT6. Linda Moulton Howe Finally Admits What They Saw on Antarctica — “I Must Tell the Truth” – lighttopix

The Hidden Landscape Beneath the Ice

One of the most important scientific discoveries about Antarctica is that its subglacial terrain is incredibly complex. Beneath the ice sheet lies a vast network of geological features that rival those found on any other continent.

Among the most remarkable discoveries is the Gamburtsev Mountain Range, a massive mountain system buried entirely beneath the ice. Often called “ghost mountains,” this range is comparable in size to the European Alps. Scientists believe these mountains played a crucial role in the formation of the Antarctic ice sheet by influencing how ice accumulated and spread.
