That is really fascinating. I wonder how tall that mountain range down the center is. As tall as the Himalayas? The Rockies?

No doubt we will be able to see it for ourselves in a few years, per Al Gore and James Hansen and their ilk. /s

Pretty neat! A while back I ran across an article about several “dry” valleys in Antarctica that actually are snow-less and have small, hypersaline lakes that never freeze. Pretty eerie stuff.

About 50 to 300 million years ago, Antarctica was a tropical type climate. It had dinosaurs from about 200 million years ago to about 60 million years.

Yet I suppose that under the pressure of all that ice, fossils must be few and far between, most having been ground down for gravel and dust.

If the ice all melt, would the land rise because it is no longer pressed down by the weight?
If so, how much would that map change?

Without ice it would be Antarta.

Here’s what snow looks like.
