Fact-Check Report: Admiral Richard E. Byrd’s Claims About Antarctica
Executive Summary
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd (1888–1957) was a pioneering American explorer, aviator, and naval officer who led four major expeditions to Antarctica between 1928 and 1956. He is widely regarded as one of the 20th century’s most respected polar explorers, earning the Medal of Honor and numerous accolades for mapping vast territories and advancing scientific understanding of the continent. Byrd’s actual statements about Antarctica focused on its immense size, untapped resources, and scientific potential, including the discovery of real “warm oases” (ice-free areas with lakes). However, many “shocking” claims attributed to him—such as encounters with advanced civilizations, UFOs, hollow Earth entrances, or hidden Nazi/alien bases—are fabrications rooted in post-1950s conspiracy theories, often amplified by forged diaries and AI-generated images.
Byrd was of sound mind and highly respected during the period he made his key statements (primarily 1930s–1940s). He suffered health setbacks from a 1934 carbon monoxide poisoning incident during a solo Antarctic winter-over, which he candidly documented in his 1938 book Alone, reflecting on the psychological toll of isolation. However, he recovered fully, led subsequent expeditions, and maintained a heroic public image until his death from heart disease in 1957. No credible evidence suggests mental instability influenced his reports.
The X post (ID: 2015266033553093085) by @LovesTheLight promotes conspiracy-laden interpretations, linking Byrd to Freemasonry, CERN symbolism, and “advanced phenomena” in Antarctica. While the “Order of the Penguin” referenced is real (a lighthearted Masonic honor for Antarctic explorers), the post’s core claims mix verifiable facts with unsubstantiated theories. Below, I break down the claims, Byrd’s authentic statements, and broader context.
Key Claims from the X Post and Attached Images: Fact-Check Table
The post states: “Admiral Byrd claimed vast unexplored lands in Antarctica, including warm oases and advanced phenomena. There are theories of hidden Antarctic resources.” The images depict a certificate from the “Order of the Penguin,” a real award issued to Antarctic personnel.
Claim
Verdict
Explanation and Evidence
Admiral Byrd claimed vast unexplored lands in Antarctica
Mostly True (Exaggerated for Emphasis)
Byrd’s expeditions (e.g., 1928–1930, 1939–1941, Operation Highjump 1946–1947) mapped over 1.5 million square miles, revealing Antarctica’s true scale. In a 1947 El Mercurio interview, he described it as a landmass “as big as the United States” with untapped mineral and coal resources, urging U.S. investment. This was accurate but hyperbolic to highlight its strategic value during the Cold War—not a literal “hidden continent” beyond an ice wall, as conspiracists claim. No evidence supports flat-Earth or “impenetrable ice wall” interpretations.
…including warm oases
True
Byrd’s team discovered the Bunger Hills (aka Bunger Oasis) in February 1947 during Operation Highjump. This 300+ square-mile ice-free coastal area features freshwater lakes, geothermal warmth (up to 70°F/21°C in summer), and bare rock mounds—resembling arid U.S. Southwest landscapes. Byrd called it a “strange oasis” with “colorful lakes” and urged scientific study for potential microbial life and resources. It remains a real, documented site, not a portal to inner Earth.
…and advanced phenomena
False (Conspiracy Fabrication)
No verified Byrd quotes mention UFOs, advanced civilizations, or “flying saucers” in Antarctica. A purported 1947 “secret diary” describing a hollow Earth flight with “flugelrads” (Nazi flying discs) and inner-world beings is a hoax, traced to 1950s occult fiction and amplified online. Fact-checks confirm related photos (e.g., lush valleys with mammoths) are AI-generated. Byrd’s “shocking” 1947 warning of “hostile planes” from polar regions referred to Soviet bombers, not aliens.
There are theories of hidden Antarctic resources
True (But Unsubstantiated Theories)
Conspiracy theories abound (e.g., Nazi bases, alien tech, vast oil reserves under treaties). Byrd did speculate on coal, uranium, and iron ore potential in public talks, but modern surveys show limited exploitable resources due to ice cover and the 1959 Antarctic Treaty banning militarization. No “hidden” caches linked to Byrd.
Order of the Penguin (from images/post)
True
This was a humorous Masonic fraternity founded by Byrd in 1935 (Antarctic Lodge No. 777, under New Zealand’s Grand Lodge) for explorers crossing the Antarctic Circle. Members swore lighthearted “secrecy” oaths about penguin lore. The certificate (dated Jan. 20, 1961) is authentic in style but posthumous (Byrd died in 1957); it likely honors a crew member from earlier expeditions. Byrd, a Freemason since 1921, used it to build camaraderie—no sinister cover-up.
Full Report: What Did Admiral Byrd Actually Say About Antarctica That Was “Shocking”?
Byrd’s expeditions were scientific and military, funded by the U.S. Navy and private donors (e.g., Rockefeller family). His “shocking” elements were grounded in real discoveries, not esoterica. Here’s a chronological overview of his key statements, drawn from verified sources like expedition logs, interviews, and his books (Discovery, 1935; Alone, 1938):
1928–1930 Expedition (First Flight Over South Pole)
Byrd established “Little America” base and flew over the Pole on Nov. 29, 1929.
Shocking claim: “Antarctica is not a waste land but a treasure house of scientific knowledge and potential resources.” He emphasized its size (then-estimated 5–6 million sq. mi.) and fossil evidence of ancient forests, hinting at a warmer prehistoric climate. No oases yet, but he speculated on geothermal activity.
1933–1935 Expedition (Second Winter-Over)
Byrd volunteered for a solo meteorological station 123 miles from base, enduring -58°F temperatures and CO poisoning (nearly fatal).
Shocking reflections (from Alone): He described hallucinations from isolation—”the human mind… rebels against the emptiness”—but praised Antarctica’s “serene” beauty. Mentally taxing, but he viewed it as a test of resilience, not otherworldly horror.
1939–1941 U.S. Antarctic Service Expedition
Mapped 150,000 sq. mi.; established permanent bases.
Shocking claim: In reports to Congress, Byrd warned of Antarctica’s strategic vulnerability: “The poles are no man’s land… but could become invasion routes.” This foreshadowed Cold War fears, not extraterrestrials.
1946–1947 Operation Highjump (Largest U.S. Antarctic Effort)
Involved 4,700 men, 13 ships, 33 aircraft; tested post-WWII gear.
Shocking discoveries:
Bunger Oasis: Pilot David E. Bunger spotted it via aerial survey. Byrd’s team confirmed “blue lakes” and “steam vents,” calling it a “miracle in the ice.” He told El Mercurio (March 5, 1947): “I’d like to see that land beyond the Pole. That area beyond the Pole is the center of the great unknown.”
Polar threat warning: In the same interview (often misquoted): “The time has come… [for] the United States to adopt measures of protection against the possibility of an attack from hostile planes able to fly over the poles.” Context: Soviet Arctic bases, not UFOs.
No “advanced phenomena”: Expedition films show routine mapping, with one reel (at ~50:20) highlighting the oasis as “300 sq. miles of snow-free land… like New Mexico.”
1955–1956 Operation Deep Freeze
Byrd’s final role: Advised on base construction for the International Geophysical Year.
Shocking (posthumous context): In 1957 testimony prep, he reiterated resource potential, but died before delivery.
Common Misattributions
Hollow Earth/Aliens: Stem from a fake 1950s pamphlet (The Missing Diary of Admiral Richard E. Byrd) and 1970s books like The Hollow Earth. Byrd never mentioned “Aryan giants” or inner suns.
Nazi Bases: Operation Highjump rumors (e.g., battling U-boats) are debunked; it was a training mission.
Recent hoaxes: 2022–2025 social media posts use AI images of “Byrd’s photos” showing jungles—verified fakes.
Byrd’s Mental State and Reputation When Making Claims
Reputation: Universally respected in the 1940s–1950s as a national hero. He received the Navy Cross (1926), Congressional Gold Medal (1930), and was promoted to rear admiral. Presidents Roosevelt and Truman consulted him on polar policy. Biographies (e.g., Lisle Rose’s 2008 Explorer) portray him as disciplined and visionary, despite expedition controversies (e.g., disputed 1926 North Pole flight).
Sound Mind: The 1934 isolation caused depression and physical decline (CO poisoning mimicked mental fog), but Byrd sought treatment and resumed duties by 1935. His Alone book is introspective, not delusional—praised for psychological insight. No medical records or contemporaries (e.g., crew logs) indicate instability during 1940s claims. He testified before Congress lucidly until 1957.
Broader Context: Why These Myths Persist
Antarctica’s remoteness fuels speculation (e.g., 1959 Treaty secrecy clauses). Byrd’s Masonic ties and “penguin oaths” add mystique, but were morale-boosters. Modern conspiracies (e.g., linking to CERN or Trump) recycle tropes without evidence. For balanced views, consult Ohio State University’s Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center (renamed in 2020 to honor his legacy while acknowledging expedition ethics).
ORIGINAL REPORT:
BREAKING: Kick Streamer Has His Equipment Immediately Confiscated After Livestreaming In Antarctica
This is very interesting!
For years I have told you something very strange is happening in Antarctica….
It could be, perhaps, that Antarctica isn’t at all what we’ve been told, and maybe as the UN logo depicts, perhaps it’s not some island at the “bottom” of the Earth but maybe instead it’s a giant ice wall going around a flat, circular Earth?
Nah, that would be crazy right?
I truly don’t know, but I do know that they don’t want anyone going down there, and if you do somehow get down there, they REALLY don’t want you filming or having any Internet connection!
Watch this:

And if that won’t play, backup video here if needed:
So….what is actually down there in Antarctica?
I have no idea, of course!
But I do know a few things….
I do know that you’re not allowed to go there, which is probably all you need to know to understand it’s NOT what they’ve told us it is.
I also know John Kerry abruptly flew there ON ELECTION NIGHT in 2016.
Remember this?
Why Did John Kerry Fly To Antarctica On Election Night 2016?
I know the UN logo is essentially a Flat Earth map:
I know in the 1940s, after leading several expeditions to Antarctica, Admiral Bird came back to the continental US and reported he had discovered many new lands “beyond the ice wall” — many of which were warm and teeming with life:
Antarctic Lodge No. 777, nicknamed “Order of the Penguin.”

Fact-checked TRUE by Grok:
Byrd, a pioneering U.S. Navy admiral and polar explorer, led multiple Antarctic expeditions (1928–1930, 1933–1935, 1939–1941, and Operation Highjump in 1946–1947). He claimed (and mapped) millions of square miles of previously uncharted territory, including the Marie Byrd Land sector (named after his wife), which spans ~1.6 million sq km—larger than Texas. This was formalized in U.S. territorial claims and documented in his reports to Congress.
And we’ll end with this:
Let’s Dig In To….Flat Earth?
Buckle up my friends!
Many of you are not going to handle this article well.
And that’s ok.
I’m ready for you!
Comment away!
Tell me how you’ve read this website for 8 years and now gosh-darn-it you’re leaving and never coming back!
There are two topics that never cease to create absolutely irrational, emotional, violent angry responses whenever I talk about them…
The first is exposing Freemasons, and the second is daring to even ask the question about “Flat Earth”.
Sorry, but my mission remains the same as it was when I founded this site in 2015: to shine the light on TRUTH, wherever that takes us.
So in this article we’re going to talk about the Earth, space and whether there is a massive cover up about the shape of the Earth.
Before you think I’ve gone completely crazy, all I ask is for you to look and see.
And as I always say, I report…YOU decide.
Also, before you think I’ve also gone crazy with the image up above, here’s the deal.
This is from a recent video uploaded by Sean over at SGT Report.
I’m sure MANY of you know SGT Report and have probably listened to a number of Sean’s videos.
I believe Sean is one of the absolute best interviewers out there.
He’s not crazy and he’s not afraid to let his investigation into a story take him wherever the truth goes.
So a few months ago, Sean started talking with these guys who run a channel called the Founded Earth Brothers.
It used to be Flat Earth Brothers but they changed the name to Founded Earth Brothers to reach more people.
Sean started interviewing them and in the early interviews you Sean comes right out and says he thinks “Flat Earth” is a crazy thing to even be talking about.
But then?
But then they keep talking and keep doing interviews and today Sean refers to himself as a “Globe as you’re told skeptic”.
This latest video is honestly one of the best interviews on any topic I have heard in a long time.
Incredibly powerful and I challenge anyone to watch this and not at least start to have some questions going off in your head about whether everything we have been told is a lie.
I can’t possibly put everything they talk about into one article but I’m going to hit a few high points that might cause you to say “huh?”
They did for me.
First up, did you know that despite ALL of our incredible technology and science and all the satellites and everything we have allegedly up in space, did you know that we don’t have ONE single photo of the Earth?
It’s true.
Now I know what you’re thinking, sure we do! I’ve seen the textbooks!
Except what you don’t realize is that EVERY single photo of the Earth that you’ve ever seen has a disclaimer by it saying it is a “composite image”.
Meaning they didn’t just click a button on a camera and snap the pic….instead they took a bunch of smaller images and stitched them all together in a computer program.
Not one single real photo of Earth exists.
And since they’re making these photos in a computer program, perhaps that’s why all of the images look so different over the years:
Yes folks, those are all images NASA has tried to tell you are of the Earth.
Crazy, you wouldn’t think it would change color so much now would you?
But we’re just getting started.
Did you know there is also no live video feed showing the FULL Earth spinning in space?
Nope.
There are live feed videos but it’s always just of a slice of the Earth. Very odd.
You’d really think that with all our trips to space and all our satellites, we could turn on a camera, snap a normal picture and turn on a live feed to see the whole globe, right?
And speaking of those space trips, did you know after we went to the moon in 1972 we just chose to never go back.
Think about it.
Does that make sense to anyone?
No, I’m not joking.
Here is NASA Astronaut Don Pettit in a very famous clip saying “we don’t have the technology to go to the moon anymore.”
Watch for yourself:
Anyone buying this?
