Summary

In part 3 of the Nazis & UFOs series we explore the soure of some of the most outlandish and intriguing stories in UFO lore—Antarctica.In 1938, Nazi Germany made an expedition to Antarctica where they claimed territory. What could have compelled them to make that investment of time and resources in the lead up to WWII? Were they looking for something? And could they have found it?After the war, rumors swirled that what remained of the Third Reich escaped to secret bases in Antarctica, and from there the mystique only grew. Since then, a baroque mythology has sprung up around the southernmost continent, with each new twist and turn only adding to mystery.Today, we’ll dive into some of the most popular—and bizarre—theories as to what the Nazis may have found in Antarctica—including the lost city of Atlantis, an unknown ancient culture from the distant past, secret alien bases, and more.NEW Class from Dr. James MaddenUnidentified Flying Hyperobject: UFOs, Philosophy, and the End of the WorldFour-week online class via ZoomWednesdays, March 27 – April 24 (skips April 10), 20247 – 9 pm ETLearn More About the ClassSign Up NowGOOGLE EARTH LINKSThe AzoresThe Pyramid in AntarcticaGET THE EPISODE BRIEFBECOME A PATRONGET THE BOOKGet a SIGNED COPYGet it on AmazonFOLLOWWebsiteTwitterFacebookMUSICTheme: Cabinet of Curiosities by Shaun FrearsonBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-ufo-rabbit-hole-podcast--5746035/support.

0:07.0	The Welcome back to the UFO Rabbit Hole podcast. I'm your host, Kelly Chase. Today, we're diving into part three of our series on
0:38.6	Nazi UFO lore. This episode was supposed to complete the trilogy, but once I started writing,
0:44.8	it immediately became clear that that wasn't going to happen. That's because today we're
0:49.5	going to be talking about one of my favorite topics in UFO lore, Antarctica. As you'll see, some of the most outlandish and bizarre stories come out of Antarctica.
0:59.0	And as if a remote frozen continent at the bottom of the world wasn't enough on its own to create an air of mystique and intrigue.
1:07.0	The lore around Antarctica is especially compelling because of the ways in which it bumps up against real historical people and events, making it hard to tell where history ends and fantasy begins.
1:19.5	And there's so much to dig into.
1:21.8	Even after giving Antarctica a full episode, I feel like we'll barely scratch the surface of all that's there.
1:28.1	So let's not waste any more time and just get to it.
1:32.5	There is perhaps no region on Earth, more remote and more mysterious than Antarctica.
1:38.3	Covered in a layer of ice with an average thickness of 1.2 miles,
1:42.0	the fifth largest continent sits at the southern pole in the middle
1:45.7	of the equally enigmatic Southern Ocean. The Southern Ocean is different from other
1:50.4	oceans on Earth in a few distinct ways. Perhaps the most notable is that it's the only ocean that is
1:56.3	surrounded on all sides by water. It's defined by a swift undertow called the Antarctic Circumpolar
2:02.5	Current, or ACC, that flows from west to east around Antarctica. The current extends out to
2:09.0	60 degrees south latitude and acts as an invisible wall separating the freezing Southern Ocean
2:14.3	from the warmer, saltier, Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.
2:19.2	This separation makes both the continent and the Southern Ocean ecologically distinct,
2:24.5	hosting countless diverse life forms, many of which have likely not even been discovered.
2:29.6	The reason for the mystery surrounding the southernmost continent, beyond its remoteness,
