Beneath the icy veil of Antarctica, a discovery lies dormant, one that could rewrite the annals of history. Whispered tales speak of an immense “anomaly,” nestled in the heart of Wilkes Land’s frozen expanse.
Plunging roughly 848 meters deep and sprawling 151 kilometers wide, this hidden treasure has scholars scratching their heads. Some posit that it’s the remnants of an asteroid, far grander than the famed Chicxulub, responsible for the harrowing demise of the dinosaurs.
Should this theory stand the test of time, it implies that this very celestial behemoth might have ushered in the devastating Permian–Triassic extinction event, extinguishing nearly 96% of marine life and up to 70% of terrestrial creatures.
However, the internet’s dark corners whisper other tales. Tales of a colossal UFO base, or perhaps a portal to the legendary Hollow Earth, beckoning from beneath the glacial sheets.
The elusive “Wilkes Land gravity anomaly” was unveiled to the world in 2006, after NASA’s eagle-eyed satellites detected gravitational shifts hinting at a massive entity lurking below, within a 300-mile wide crater’s embrace.
Fueling these whispered legends, a video by the UFO enthusiast group, Secure Team 10, burst into the digital sphere, reigniting fervent debates. “Even today, we remain clueless, unable to fathom the mysteries veiled beneath this icy fortress,” the video’s voiceover declares, hinting at the enigma Antarctica has remained over the decades.
The storytellers from Secure Team 10 weave a tale of the Nazis, constructing covert bases in Antarctica’s hidden corners during WWII, intended as launchpads for otherworldly saucers.

Evidences, they argue, are emerging: images capturing curious entrances etched into mountain sides, each shaped uncannily like a saucer, positioned at dizzying heights. How might one approach such gateways without a vessel mirroring their design?
Adding another layer to the lore, it’s suggested that the US Navy once led an expedition, titled Operation High Jump, with a quest not just to explore the icy continent but to unveil an entrance to Earth’s inner sanctums.
Yet, at the heart of this riddle stands a scientist, Ralph von Frese of Ohio State University. Upon the anomaly’s discovery in 2006, he championed the belief that it signifies an immense impact crater, far more devastating than the one responsible for the dinosaurs’ end. He speaks of a cataclysm, an era where life struggled against insurmountable odds, and many succumbed to the inexorable march of extinction.
