Interesting video, I met a British army surveyor back in the late 80s in Nepal, we got to talking about the Falklands war and he said it had more to do with Argentina occupying the Falklands as an economic strategy as its the UKs only nearby staging area for any exploitation of Antarctic resources.
Thatcher sure as well was planning ahead then. Of course the decision was really made by the Argentinians, they gave Britain a choice to react or not and I’m not sure oil revenues half a century away where really at the top of everyone’s minds at that moment.
Antarctica is vastly rich in literally EVERY resource you can imagine. Yet no one touchs it because it's almost like we actually do care about somethings on earth.
There were no nuclear weapons tests or donations conducted in Antarctica in 1958 or at any other time. The Antarctic Treaty, which came into effect in 1961, prohibits any nuclear explosions and the disposal of radioactive waste material in Antarctica. The nuclear tests you are likely referring to are those of Operation Argus, which took place in the South Atlantic Ocean, not Antarctica. From August 27 to September 6, 1958, the United States conducted three high-altitude nuclear tests as part of Operation Argus, using low-yield nuclear warheads launched from the USS Norton Sound124. Operation Argus, a series of high-altitude nuclear tests conducted by the United States, took place in the South Atlantic Ocean, far from Antarctica. Here are the specific locations and distances from Antarctica: The first test (Argus I) was conducted approximately 180 km SSE of Tristan da Cunha, which is at 38.5° South, 11.5° West. This location is about 3,500 to 4,000 km north of the Antarctic coast13. The second and third tests (Argus II and III) were conducted between Gough Island and Bouvet Island, with coordinates around 49.5° South, 8.2° West and 48.5° South, 9.7° West, respectively. These locations are also roughly 3,000 to 3,500 km north of the Antarctic coast13. Therefore, the Operation Argus tests were conducted at a distance of approximately 3,000 to 4,000 kilometers north of Antarctica.

Hoping renewables make drilling seem a lot less desirable. The price of renewables continues to drop. 2048 looks like a late enough date to stop all this oil stuff.
Forget it - lithium is only available in tiny quantities and will likely have run out by 2048 - no lithium = no electric cars etc - then what? Oh yeah, oil
@@thenotanclan oil is also finite resource like lithium - in larger quantities yes, but its gona run out - and Antarctica aint exactly accessible when it comes to the simple economics of extracting it. There are also lots of other technologies out there that don't depend on oil to power transport and support electricity production and simple economies of scale and energy security will push more countries towards renewables - why squabble over oil when you dont need it. At this point oil is antiquated tech when it comes to power generation or vehicle propulsion - ev, hydrogen and synthetic fuels are already out there - Yes Oil will continue to be needed as its used for many other things, but it wont be needed in the quantities the Russians claim to have found any time soon. Theres a reason the saudis are scrambling to build an economy less dependent on oil and thats not because they think its the future!
In case anyone's wondering why the plant machinery is quite old, it's due to the emmissions regulations on different generations. Older equipment has less stuff that goes wrong, simpler to work on and likely can have multiple machine models as backups for the same price as a new model.

American dollars is the most widely recognized currency in the world, wouldn't make much sense to give the cost in Swedish crowns or Lira now would it. As for celsius, it's just better than fahrenheit and it's scientific. As for the wind speed, no idea honestly
@@real_smilegamezI guess they should've used knots, but since pretty much no one outside shipping and flying uses it, mph is the closest, and it's still used in nautic and aeronautic environments

@@orishaeshu1084i mean, before we even run out of the oil reserves we found now. Climate change will have destroyed almost everything. We already have enough oil reserves to end the world. We don't need more.

I would love to see a design piece on the roofing system of the new building. Particularly, how the snowfall is directed off the building and towards the “dock” areas where they would seem to fall victim to the same slides and accumulations that are shown at 13:24 - 13:27. The seasonal snowfall is measured in Meters☺️
Hi there, I was lucky enough to work on the Discovery Building! If you look at 6:28, you'll see what look like vents on the upper corner of the roof- this structure is a 'wind deflector', which we designed to funnel the prevailing wind down the face of the Leeward side of the building, reducing snow buildup which will usually build up on this side (away from the wind).
@@bill9540 worth noting that the animation has the wind direction backwards. the wind comes from the lower side, up the roof then is fired down by the wind deflector. if they ever get round to fitting it...
Ants might not have blueprints, but their instinct-driven “antitecture” is a marvel. They work together seamlessly, creating underground cities that adapt to the environment and provide everything they need.
It would be a economic boom for the countries who have claim on the oil reserves. So no, not a low point. You have a belief that oil rigs are bad. There are people who think oil rigs are good. The problem is you think your absolutely right.
My Uncle was a Chef for the American Mission to Antarctica for few years, off Season He was a Pilot on A Barge Tug pushing miles long Barge trains from the USA to South American Ports across the Gulf of Mexico
Seeing as you mentioned that the antarctic doesn't have any hardware shops incase parts are needed I imagine there must be some fabrication tech used down there, like metal 3D printers to produce things such as brackets and tools. With the exception of the ISS Antarctica is the one place where the ability to manufacture what you need on location would be incredibly useful.
we need to preserve Antarctica and protect her no mining or oil drilling. The animals need to be protected. God save the penguins and seals. Humans need to respect that place and keep it wild free and pristine.
Why are people against developing Antartica? It’s literally barren. Humans are doing far more damage in biodiversity hotspots like rainforests as we speak.
@@chriskeentechnician They don't have anything left to explode. What little they had to start with started melting when The Final Experiment was reviled.
If anything, this is just a controlled opposition tactic to further create division amongst the masses and to create backlash against any further things happening in Antartica. It actually furthers/strengthens the argument for Flat Earth as it reinforces the current NO GO ZONE mass signed treaty because the masses will kick up a stink (which according to the comments about this vid are already doing). This is a furthereing of the program for the masses to stay away from Antarctica and the Flat Earth community will point this out and use it to their advantage....And so they should because their take on "Antartica" makes far more logical sense then the mass held "narrative belief".
This yellow building is a ski resort north of Santiago, Chile…. You can see the ski lifts in right side of frame. And all the cars and busses in parking lot.
Hopefully in 2048 they see the importance of protecting this majestic continent. Though I feel in the future, Antarctica will become a foundation for war, especially as we grow as a species and resources become more scarce.
We will not grow as a species. Growth is pragmatic to the human existence via that of survivalism. We will never as a species leave well enough alone so long as there is the infection of suicide within our makeup genes.

The Antartica treaty was to end WWII with the German Reich which established the emergency continuity of Government there. The treaty process began in the 60’s but wasn’t officially signed until 1972. The Germans established New Swabia by carving out a fortress in the mountain ridge, capable of supporting a maximum of 300,000 but only holding 150,000 at any given time. New Swabia refers to the Antartica base. New Wewelsburg refers to the Lunar base. New Berlin refers to the Agartha base.
@@NarasimhaDiyasenaare you high? There was never any evidence of any sort of nazi base in antarctica. Aside from a weather and research station. Which Germany needed to set up the station there because the allies were destroying every other station they built.
Also very popular for building giant IT mainframes as cooling them to below (approximately 27 degrees c.) in warmer climates is always prohibitively expensive.
The wild thing to remember is that oil is created by decayed plant life. If there’s that much oil down there then Antarctica was once in a more normal weather region…
Territory wise, Argentina and Chile would have a little bit more right to that piece of Antartica than the UK, right? Imagine Argentina and Chile claiming a piece of territory on the Arctic...
Just imagine when we can build a couple large mirrors or a number of smaller ones in orbit to reflect much more sunlight even a little more potent even down onto the inhabited areas down there. Giving it more of a comfortable temperature to live in during the summer months. We could build large dome cities down there then use the light for greenhouses to

2:25 This is the worst sensationalism. It was a test of tiny warheads at the same distance from Antarctica as London to Moscow.
Tiny warheads?
What was the yield?
@@user295295 1kT of TNT
@@user295295it was called operation fishbowl apart of the broader operation Dominic. It's highest yield was 1.4 megatonnes.
Very interesting. Love this informative videos on what's going on in the different parts of the world.
This reminds me of Kim Stanley Robinson's sci-fi novel, 'Antarctica', which is about this very phenomenon.
The first one hundred train on Antarctica before they settle Mars in his Mars trilogy as well.
@@jennijenjenjen Oh yeah. Man, I read that trilogy in the 90s. That takes me back.
I am reading Antarctica now,picked it up after 5 years!
The world must get this treaty extended indefinitely
7:18 - is that the boat that was originally named Boaty McBoatface by the internet before the contest holders picked something else?
Yes
I did not realize there was that much infrastructure down there!
Seems like a lovely place. I might try to spend time there.
Good Structure
and if anyone finds an alien buried in the ice, do NOT dig it up!
I would love to see a design piece on the roofing system of the new building. Particularly, how the snowfall is directed off the building and towards the “dock” areas where they would seem to fall victim to the same slides and accumulations that are shown at 13:24 - 13:27. The seasonal snowfall is measured in Meters☺️
Hi there, I was lucky enough to work on the Discovery Building! If you look at 6:28, you'll see what look like vents on the upper corner of the roof- this structure is a 'wind deflector', which we designed to funnel the prevailing wind down the face of the Leeward side of the building, reducing snow buildup which will usually build up on this side (away from the wind).
@@marklewis2428 Many thanks for that, I was in roofing & sheet metal for 30 years and the system design work was often fascinating.
@@bill9540 worth noting that the animation has the wind direction backwards. the wind comes from the lower side, up the roof then is fired down by the wind deflector. if they ever get round to fitting it...
Heated roofs,
Argentina and UK at it again. Look at that overlap on the map. What they playing at.
🇬🇧 it's free real estate
Ants might not have blueprints, but their instinct-driven “antitecture” is a marvel. They work together seamlessly, creating underground cities that adapt to the environment and provide everything they need.
🎉Secret baby race🎉
America… “Sounds like Antarctica needs some freedom…..”
Oil rigs on Antarctica would be a real low point for humanity. 😢
Weve had them up in Alaska for decades, this has unfortunately only been a matter of time
Think about the money for the West though
Did someone say OIL? 🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🍺🍺🍺🏈🏈🏈🔥🔥🔥🔥
It would be a economic boom for the countries who have claim on the oil reserves. So no, not a low point. You have a belief that oil rigs are bad. There are people who think oil rigs are good. The problem is you think your absolutely right.

Great video
My Uncle was a Chef for the American Mission to Antarctica for few years, off Season He was a Pilot on A Barge Tug pushing miles long Barge trains from the USA to South American Ports across the Gulf of Mexico
Excellent photography and video. Well done.
Seeing as you mentioned that the antarctic doesn't have any hardware shops incase parts are needed I imagine there must be some fabrication tech used down there, like metal 3D printers to produce things such as brackets and tools. With the exception of the ISS Antarctica is the one place where the ability to manufacture what you need on location would be incredibly useful.
It's really just dawned on me the British importance of the Fawkland Islands.
Long live the empire 🇬🇧
Well it is getting warmer around here
Cool. Wish I had made an effort to go down there to do some research before I had my family. What a cool experience.
we need to preserve Antarctica and protect her no mining or oil drilling. The animals need to be protected. God save the penguins and seals. Humans need to respect that place and keep it wild free and pristine.
Why are people against developing Antartica? It’s literally barren. Humans are doing far more damage in biodiversity hotspots like rainforests as we speak.
Oohh the flat earthers won't like that 😂
I can hear their tiny little brains exploding as we speak 🧠 💥 😂
@@chriskeentechnician They don't have anything left to explode. What little they had to start with started melting when The Final Experiment was reviled.
Flerfers be like... how they gonna get over the ice wall? 🤔
If anything, this is just a controlled opposition tactic to further create division amongst the masses and to create backlash against any further things happening in Antartica.
It actually furthers/strengthens the argument for Flat Earth as it reinforces the current NO GO ZONE mass signed treaty because the masses will kick up a stink (which according to the comments about this vid are already doing).
This is a furthereing of the program for the masses to stay away from Antarctica and the Flat Earth community will point this out and use it to their advantage....And so they should because their take on "Antartica" makes far more logical sense then the mass held "narrative belief".
Antarctica now feels like a "golden land" for nations, from the oil discovery to the territorial race, reminiscent of an action movie
This yellow building is a ski resort north of Santiago, Chile…. You can see the ski lifts in right side of frame. And all the cars and busses in parking lot.
Hopefully in 2048 they see the importance of protecting this majestic continent. Though I feel in the future, Antarctica will become a foundation for war, especially as we grow as a species and resources become more scarce.
We will not grow as a species. Growth is pragmatic to the human existence via that of survivalism. We will never as a species leave well enough alone so long as there is the infection of suicide within our makeup genes.
Antactica is best place for industry and mining, better than my backyard in Pennyslvania. Sorry but million of people come before thousand penguins. Till we move beyond mining and factories they have to be somewhere unlesss you're an idiot and just thinks products appear out of thin air.
@@alexwilliamrussellwell considering what industrialization could do to the frozen ice caps on antarctica no it isn't worth it. Floods would happen around the globe destroying entire cities and potentially killing tens of millions of people and displacing hundreds of millions.
@@alexwilliamrusselltbm pareces um.bocado idiota se não compreendes o conceito de serviços dos ecossistemas e a necessidade de os manter em bom estado para que esses milhões de humanos possam sobreviver e viver
So much for that Antarctic Treaty. We should be leaving Antarctica alone.
We should exploit it for all it's worth.
The Antartica treaty was to end WWII with the German Reich which established the emergency continuity of Government there. The treaty process began in the 60’s but wasn’t officially signed until 1972.
The Germans established New Swabia by carving out a fortress in the mountain ridge, capable of supporting a maximum of 300,000 but only holding 150,000 at any given time.
New Swabia refers to the Antartica base.
New Wewelsburg refers to the Lunar base.
New Berlin refers to the Agartha base.
@@NarasimhaDiyasenaare you high? There was never any evidence of any sort of nazi base in antarctica. Aside from a weather and research station. Which Germany needed to set up the station there because the allies were destroying every other station they built.

Quite nice documentary.
Thank you B1M.
A great place to drink heavily!!!
The Thing has also staked a claim to the land.
The rush to Antarctica will take the heat off of the Northwest Passage. Besides that, penguins won't savage you like polar bears will.
Just fucking leave wild places wild
Temperature in Celsius and wind speed in miles... Great!
Great, just another place we'll end up f'n up. Bravo. All for $$$$
Currently working on the discovery building 😀
Also very popular for building giant IT mainframes as cooling them to below (approximately 27 degrees c.) in warmer climates is always prohibitively expensive.

The wild thing to remember is that oil is created by decayed plant life. If there’s that much oil down there then Antarctica was once in a more normal weather region…
Territory wise, Argentina and Chile would have a little bit more right to that piece of Antartica than the UK, right?
Imagine Argentina and Chile claiming a piece of territory on the Arctic...
I think Argentina and Chile are gonna learn the hard way that life ain't always fair 😅

One penguin sees the oil company moving in and turns to his friend, "there goes the neighborhood."
UK claiming a piece of Antartica territory based on what exactly? A small piece of land which is stolen territory (Malvinas Island)?
its like the olden days you just plant a flag and its yours
What about the other countries, oh I guess they did it fairly
Heard they opened the sea resort at NEOM.. sooo.. when are you going??
YES, Build on shifting ice, in hot and warming weather, in a place that relies solely on cold weather to exist.... great idea
If you look at the Video you will see Sand and Rock beneath the Machines
Im sure you know better than the companies investing hundreds of millions into this project
Just imagine when we can build a couple large mirrors or a number of smaller ones in orbit to reflect much more sunlight even a little more potent even down onto the inhabited areas down there. Giving it more of a comfortable temperature to live in during the summer months. We could build large dome cities down there then use the light for greenhouses to
tbh smoothest adroll
I honestly would love to live and work in Antarctica or The Arctic.
Well, most people don't.
Antarctica...Come for the warmth of humanity, stay for the cold war.

Unless you are going to sleep there.
