Lol this is the best of your conspiracies. What are they doing there??? I have a cousin in Antarctica...is he engineering super viruses...virii(???)...or knitting penguin sweaters? The world will never know
Its not a conspiracy, regular people aren't allowed to just go to antarctica. Only people stationed there can and its not like theyre wandering all around. Tourists can go there but they can only go to specific places.
Look up the antarctic treaty. Regular people aren't allowed past the 60th south parallel. Only approved scientific expeditions are allowed. I don't know what they're doing there, just that there are a lot of countries that don't get along that all agreed to not dispute the territory.
Your cousin is one of the less than 5,000 people that are ever in antarctica at one time? Thats unlikely, but ill bite. Whats he doing down there?
This is true. My husband and I were thinking of doing the boat tour for our 25th wedding anniversary so I researched it. There's so many rules and regulations. Basically you pay them a shitload of money and then only go where you are told to go. It sounds like you spend almost the entire journey on the boat.
They let you go to a symbolic "south pole" that's set up for tourism, but you can't like charter a boat on your own and just walk around antarctica. Flight routes also avoid going over it to the point of adding many miles to the flight. Planes go over the north pole, no commercial flights go over antarctica.
The 60th parallel is just the beginning of territory thats considered antarctica under the Antarctic treaty. If you're claiming to have independently gone to Antarctica and wandered around you're lying.
Not independently, of course. But there were no restrictions, per say. I mean, you can't just wander around in sub-zero temperatures. But, sufficiently prepared, we were allowed to go anywhere we feel. Yes, there are restrictions. You cannot leave trash. You can only carry certain types of food away from home base. Etc... But it's not like there's a bunch of guys in black suits hiding some deep secret from you.
He's australian, from the family I'm about to marry into & he's worked as a mechanic & in plumbing, so he got hired to do maintenance at a research station & he legit does work there, has for the past year...that fucker missed the pandemic.
He did get vetted for the job. I think it was like a one year application process, but he's pretty normal, as far as I know. I bought him a copy of 'The Thing' be4 he left.
I guess they need people there to unplug the crapper when they take nuclear conspiracy shits.
Im not saying your cousin is involved in deep state conspiracy theory nonsense. Im just saying its kind of interesting how more countries agreed to not use an entire continent of barren empty space for any practical reason at all.
The people working at the NASA factory making bolts aren't in on some conspiracy, they legitimately think the bolts they make go to space.
Would my idea actually work in real life?

They dont want anyone going to antarctica. Lots of sketchy stuff about it, whatever they have down there they dont want people to see.

But.... I've been past the 60th parallel too.

I doubt it.
The 60th parallel is just the beginning of territory thats considered antarctica under the Antarctic treaty. If you're claiming to have independently gone to Antarctica and wandered around you're lying.

I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about The Thing if I went to Antartica
