From Russia Today: “Scientists studying the Ross Ice Shelf in the Antarctic have discovered that the polar wastes actually produce a unique ‘song’ which is inaudible to human ears without the use of technology. “We discovered that the shelf nearly continuously sings at frequencies of five or more cycles per second, excited by local and regional winds blowing across its snow dune‐like topography,”the authors explain in a press release. The recording below is sped up 1,200 times so we can get a rough idea of how this natural ‘ice song’ sounds:”

Of course I think Antarctica is fascinating for many other reasons, including buried remains of a previous civilization from before the last pole shift, and that the ice cap there is not centered on the rotational South Pole – the center of mass of the ice is over 300 miles east up 96 degrees East Longitude – exerting massive torque on the the crust. In the opinion of the godfather of the modern pole shift theory, Professor Charles Hapgood, this is the direction the crust of the Earth will move in when the next pole shift happens. (The Magnetic North Pole has already been moving along this meridian for many years.) Much evidence suggests the next pole shift will occur in the early 21st century.
