Antarctica is one of the most mysterious places on Earth. It is the coldest place ever discovered, with an average temperature of -50 ºC and occasional drops of up to -89.2 ºC. Furthermore, this continent remains the least explored. Antarctica has no time zones, no countries and only 2 ATMs. We are going to tell you 10 mysterious and bizarre discoveries that were made in the ice of Antarctica.

These were the first human remains discovered there. In the last 50 years, more than 10 thousand meteorites have been found on this continent. Some of them are over 700,000 years old. It turns out that dinosaurs lived in Antarctica! Since the 1980s, scientists have discovered almost a ton of fossils there. Most of these remains are more than 71 million years old. Archaeologists made another surprising discovery in 2009: Antarctic ice was hiding the fossilized remains of a unique creature. It was the size of a modern cat, but unlike our popular pets, this animal laid eggs. An unaware spectator could easily believe that Taylor Glacier is leaking blood. The terrifying, suit-like blood-red liquid flows over the ice and falls into the sea. Luckily, the origin of this water is nothing dramatic. This unusual waterfall contains so much iron oxide that it makes the water look like blood. Since Antarctica is a snow-covered continent, you probably wouldn't associate it with a lack of water. However, this land is home to one of the driest places on the planet: the McMurdo Dry Valleys, also known as the death valleys of Antarctica. Two cases of excellent Scotch whiskey were hidden in Antarctic ice for more than 100 years. After archaeologists discovered this unexpected treasure, they didn't remove it from its icy hiding place immediately because they were afraid of damaging their finds. At a depth of 335 m, American archaeologists made a truly terrifying discovery - they found an unknown creature that did not resemble any other living being known until then. Scientists know of the existence of approximately 400 lakes in Antarctica. Due to incredible pressure, water remains liquid even when its temperature is below the freezing point. In 1914, the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition began. His objective was to cross the icy continent from one side to the other. 2 ships participated in the trip. Tragically, one of them got stuck in the ice and was crushed.
