Summary

In the frozen vastness of Antarctica, 1946 marked the launch of one of the largest U.S. naval expeditions ever mounted. Officially, it was a training exercise meant to test equipment and personnel in the most unforgiving climate on Earth. But in the decades since, a storm of conspiracy theories has gathered around the mission, transforming it from a logistical venture into a legend of secrecy and the supernatural.

Whispers suggest that Admiral Richard Byrd and his fleet were not merely braving the elements but confronting something far stranger. Some claim they encountered remnants of a secret Nazi stronghold, where advanced “wonder weapons” awaited beneath the ice. Others insist Byrd’s men stumbled upon flying discs of extraterrestrial origin, unleashing a clash that ended the expedition months ahead of schedule.

Join the Theorists Theorizing as we break through the icy wall of official explanations and probe the chilling possibilities of…Operation Highjump
