Operation Highjump
Operation Highjump - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Operation Highjump (OpHjp), officially titled The United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program, 1946-1947, was a United States Navy operation organized by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd Jr., USN (Ret), Officer in Charge, Task Force 68, and led by Rear Admiral Richard H. Cruzen, USN, Commanding Officer, Task Force 68. Operation Highjump commenced 26 August 1946 and ended in late February 1947. Task Force 68 included 4,700 men, 13 ships, and multiple aircraft. The primary mission of Operation Highjump was to establish the Antarctic research base Little America IV.[1][...............................................

Admiral Byrd in an interview with Lee van Atta of International News Service aboard the expeditions command ship, the USS Mount Olympus, discussed the lessons learned from the operation. The interview appeared in the Wednesday, March 5, 1947 edition of the Chilean newspaper El Mercurio, and read in part as follows:

Admiral Richard E. Byrd warned today that the United States should adopt measures of protection against the possibility of an invasion of the country by hostile planes coming from the polar regions. The admiral explained that he was not trying to scare anyone, but the cruel reality is that in case of a new war, the United States could be attacked by planes flying over one or both poles. This statement was made as part of a recapitulation of his own polar experience, in an exclusive interview with International News Service. Talking about the recently completed expedition, Byrd said that the most important result of his observations and discoveries is the potential effect that they have in relation to the security of the United States. The fantastic speed with which the world is shrinking – recalled the admiral – is one of the most important lessons learned during his recent Antarctic exploration. I have to warn my compatriots that the time has ended when we were able to take refuge in our isolation and rely on the certainty that the distances, the oceans, and the poles were a guarantee of safety.[8][9]

U.F.O. Secrets of the Third Reich[edit]
A highly controversial German documentary, UFO — Technology Secrets and the Third Reich. suggests at the end of the hour-long film, that the real reason for the expedition was to seek out a secret German UFO station still operating in the Antarctic.[11]

Antarctica Mysteries
from Myles O'Howe 3 years ago NOT YET RATED
Anomalous evidence has been found on Google Earth, via satellite photographs. More independent research is needed. There are implications of some of this evidence. Some evidence has been altered slightly to enhance clarity. The military industrial complex sure found a lot of interest in Antarctica. Why all the secrecy, and obvious smudge applications to scientific data? Confirm for yourself on Google Earth; Water - Latitude:66°12'11.41"S, Longitude:100°56'48.95"E; Structures - Latitude:66°29'56.86"S, Longitude:100° 0'5.99"E
This antarctic evidence reminds me of data from Mars. Original discovery by Joseph P. Skipper, investigator at Mars Anomaly Research.
