The internet now has a new conspiracy theory

Conspiracy theories have become more common in recent days. Cases such as 5G antennas or about the thousands of possible origins of the new virus. Now a new one is added: “The mysterious pyramid of Antarctica”

Although it is not new, the “pyramid” was discovered between 1910 and 1913 but was kept secret because geologists believed they had found a great secret that could have been kept. This has fed the collective imagination since then, but little by little it lost interest more and more.

A new round of conspiracy theories has recently started as a second “pyramid has appeared” and you can find it if you enter your map browser with the coordinates: 79 ° 58’39.25 «S 81 ° 57’32.21» W.

Expert Mitch Darcy, a geologist at the German Research Center for Geosciences in Potsdam , comments on the subject:

“The pyramid-shaped structures are found in the Ellsworth Mountains, which are over 400km long , so it’s no surprise that there are peaks jutting out of the sky . The peaks are made of rocks, and it is a coincidence that this particular peak is shaped like that.”

“ It is not a complicated shape, so it is not a special coincidence either. By definition, it is a nunatak, which is simply a rock peak jutting above a glacier or ice cap. This one is shaped like a pyramid, but that does not mean it is a human construction, ”he concludes.

Under these perspectives it is easy to refute the theory. These rock formations are more common than we think . The Matterhorn in the Alps or Mount Bulandstindur in Iceland are clear examples.
