Looking for Viral Origins.

Investigations continue. Therein.

 

  • Bacteria found could mean

During ww2.

  • The British noticed Germany visiting The Antarctic.

and Maritime, Oceanography.

 

Who also… Told Lil’ as well. Well as

 

 

  • Ancient Maps seem to profile the Coast.?.

Yet covered over by the Last Ice Age.?.

poking through. The Ice.

 

  • The 1946/7 Byrd/Cruzen Expedition charted some

The chill factor…

is also not a hindrance

in the propagation, persistence

  • of EarthQuakes. Antarctica is still

prone and as recently as

Dec 11. Last Year… 2018… a 7.1/7.5 Magnitude was recorded,

to expand Our Early Knowledge. Acknowledging those

intrepid Explorers of Yore, who dared defy Nature

to make in Our World, Legends. Legendary

 

  • Antarctic has even more. To show. Showing

The Endurance. Trapped. Sunk. Icy Depths.1915.

 

Satellite Imagery has revealed an unknown Colony.
