On social media, some people believe that the pyramid-like structure in Antarctica is connected to aliens, while others suggest that secretive groups like the Illuminati are responsible for its existence. 

A bizarre 'pyramid' lurking under the ice in Antarctica has been found

The enormous pyramid-like structure was first spotted using satellite images taken over the southern part of Antarctica's Ellsworth Mountain range.

This area displayed several unusual peaks, including one formation that had a square base measuring around two kilometers on each side.

The resemblance to Egypt's famous Great Pyramid of Giza was remarkable, leading to extensive speculation and capturing the imaginations of conspiracy theorists.

The Ellsworth Mountains, where the pyramid-like structure was discovered, span over 400 kilometers and consist of a range of rocky peaks. 

The pyramid's shape is merely a coincidental outcome of erosion and geological processes, devoid of any human intervention.

Its peculiar structure is a natural geological formation known as a "pyramidal peaked mountain."

These formations are commonly found in glaciated regions, where peaks of rock protrude through the surface of glaciers or ice sheets. 

In Antarctica, the Ellsworth Mountains are the highest mountains in Antarctica. They form a long chain of mountains in the western part of Marie Byrd Land, reaching up to 350 kilometers in length and 48 kilometers in width. 

These mountains were discovered in 1935 by Lincoln Ellsworth during a flight from Dundee Island to the Ross Ice Shelf.

The Ellsworth Mountains in Antarctica are very cold, with temperatures averaging around -30 degrees Celsius. The best time to visit this area is during the months of November to January.

Numerous wild conspiracy theories regarding the new discovery 

After the news of the pyramid-like structure in Antarctica spread, social media platforms were flooded with theories proposing extraterrestrial connections. 

Some individuals suggested that ancient civilizations had somehow transported the pyramids from Egypt to Antarctica.

Others went even further, speculating about a prehistoric civilization that flourished when Antarctica was much warmer, around 10,000 years ago.

Additionally, there were theories involving secretive organizations like the Illuminati emerged, linking them to the pyramid's construction and their secret operations. 

There would be predators and aliens there. I watched the film, one user said.

It was build as security to prevent us globers to pass icewall. Trust me, a guy with very convincing flatearth model told me once, the second user commented.

It wasn’t always snow and ice. Humans (or similar) have inhabited earth for tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of years, another explained.

The real conspiracy is that alien tech is buried in the ice and is why Antarctica is protected under international treaties, someone wrote.
