I wasn’t going to write about this, but shit man, I’m excited. I watched a documentary about Antarctica. It was very long, and there was a lot of information covered. Of course, those brave people who attempted to reach the plateau from the ice shelf (coastline) were recognized as well as those actually ended up making it all the way to the South Pole at 90 degrees.
Here’s the part that got my mind racing. There were people down there, scientist I’m sure, and they were conducting experiments. Accidentally, someone opened a hole in the ozone layer directly over the Pole, which is pretty much the center of the icy continent.
Normally, the South Pole is -100 degrees, and it doesn’t receive strong sunlight because of it’s location. Antarctica is completely covered with ice and snow, and the waters around the continent are 2 miles of frozen depth. I don’t think the hole that was opened was that a big, obviously, but if it had been, we could’ve been in serious trouble.
This got me thinking about Noah and the flood. What if, that’s what happened in biblical times. It’s not far fetched. The documentary said 70% of our planet’s fresh water is the frozen ice on and around Antarctica, and if it had melted, sea levels would rise 300 feet.
Now, if that were the case, Antarctica which is one of the only places on the globe we can’t really occupy and maintain a “normal” way of living because of the weather extremes, but would probably become the safe place to go. Antarctica and some really high mountain tops.
What if in our attempt to explore space, and our never ending desire to know our place in this world, was almost our own demise? What if we knew what were doing, and we knew what the outcome would be, but someone in biblical times went ahead and made that hole anyway, and melted the ice on and around Antarctica. Maybe Noah built his Ark and sailed to Antarctica, and now it’s buried under the frozen ice.
What is really on that continent?
If you take Noah’s Arc out of Antarctica, you’re left with Attica!
