Life on Mars: Antarctica Comparisons

In October 2020, a sharp-eyed investigator discovered a metallic-looking object in Antarctica using satellite images. The object, half-covered in ice, appeared to be a raised disk casting a shadow. Author Brad Olsen speculated that it might be an alien spacecraft emerging as the ice melts.
