.......am I doing it right? What's a chevron? Did I do a thing?
Oh thank god. For a while there I thought I was stuck on this planet with assholes like elon musk, and trump.
Ok, so, this new planet we're going to.....do they have bacon? Or should we find some left leaning farmers to bring some pigs for breeding?
Look, I'm excited to leave this hellhole called earth, but, c'mon. We gotta bring bacon.
But we don't have to bring pedophiles, or fascists. That's why we're leaving earth to begin with.
Flat earth confirmed
Protip: Read the article before you out yourself as a moron for not understanding that they are talking about structural features of melting polar ice.
Ya can’t stop the fun train with simple facts. /s
Jokes on you, I read the article and I’m STILL gonna out myself as a moron! Checkmate Evangelathiests!
See! I told you!
They come to enslave us, it's probably an improvement.

Thinking this is Reddit and taking the rules of a meme community seriously make you a real winner. ;-)
You're not the boss of me! I'll do what I want!
"In the east and center, Ran saw icy terraces stacked like steps, while the west looked smoother, with channels and scooped depressions."
icy terraces = ancient cities beyond comprehension, thank you very much.
Channels and scooped depressions?
Sooo....aqueducts to put the Romans to shame?
Those unknown structures?
Using sonar, Ran mapped 54 square miles of ice underside beneath Dotson Ice Shelf. The maps revealed flat plateaus, terraced steps, and teardrop-shaped pits, all carved by basal melt, melting that attacks the ice from below.
In the east and center, Ran saw icy terraces stacked like steps, while the west looked smoother, with channels and scooped depressions.
None of these terraces or teardrop pits show up on satellite images, so they had remained completely hidden until Ran’s mission.
structural features of melting polar ice.
Nope, it's R'lyeh

Herpa derp derp
Maybe it's just their dicks


Now we're talking...
Get yer P-90s ready, boys. We’re about to go snake huntin’

Antarctica is a continent, you can't send a sub underneath it. Ran discovered previously unseen structures beneath the Dotson Ice Shelf in West Antarctica.
The Arctic is covered in floating ice, you can send subs under it. Well, it's covered at the moment, climate change is working on changing all that.
And why would you define a continent to only include rock?
Sure we do. Do you not consider Glacier National Park a part of North America?
They are not part of the continental land mass, even though they are geographically located on the continent called North America. But the Arctic is not a continent because there is no land mass.
Earth.com is, in my experience, ridiculously clickbaity and sensationalist. The open-access article recounting this (that the OP article just regurgitates) is here. (I know this is a memes community; don't @ me.)
@ @ @
I know this is a meme sub
Then why did you comment? You know that everyone who saw this meme chuckled, and then either went "probably bullshit" and moved on, or googled it, found out it's click bait and moved on. You accomplish nothing but giving yourself a soap box.
Then why did you comment?
Because the OP shared a bad source, some people might want to read about this event (I did, which is why I read this), and this is the original source and open-access. Like goddamn; did the submarine disappear because it went up your ass?
If you can't look at that source, read it for 5 seconds and realize it's a shithole rag of disinformation and conspiracy theories, then you probably should be relying on other people to parse information for you. If you can't find another source on the same information by using your thumbs, then you may want to get off the internet altogether. OP clearly wasn't trying to fool anyone or spread disinformation, it's a meme and you losers are in here demanding a better bibliography.

Those people are only going to improve their media literacy when they can compare and contrast what good and bad sources look like – whether they do that on their own or with help from someone else. While that muscle is still underdeveloped in so many people, is it obscene to you to just help them a little?

Centralizing the information means less wasted work. I'd bet I can do the research you can do in an hour in ten minutes, and my actual decade-long hobby is making research easier for others; I don't need this lecture.
demanding a better bibliography.
"Demanding" is when you just do the thing yourself immediately and unprompted without asking anything from anybody.

Providing a better bibliography, in case anyone else wants it.

Wrong story, more like "Tekeli-li"
Gargles in incomprehensible horror

Ty!
This could also be the alternate plot to Iron Lung

Not entirely actually! I just learned earlier today (Wikipedia) that "if its ice is considered not as land, but as water, it is not a single landmass, but several landmasses of much smaller area, since the ice-bedrock boundary is below sea level in many regions of the continent"
TIL that glacier ice is considered a type of mono-mineralic rock: https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/glacier-ice-a-type-rock
So did I! Thanks!
You're confusing a continent with a craton. A continent is an entire geographic region. It's not a singular object.

Cabin in the Woods
You spent seven years on MacGyver and you can't figure this one out?
I can think of nothing worse than having to relive the story of AVP in real life. I barely made it to the credits the first time.
There is no "beneath antartica". Antarctica is a continent. That would be like "beneath north america". The best you can do is under one of the ice sheets.
Well… beneath North America is a massive super volcano, so…
No. A volcano is a vent or fissure in a planetary crust. The volcano itself is a geologigal structure and integral part of the north american plate.
A hotspot is what lies under that volcano and thereby under the north american plate.
However, those areas are not reachable by submarine (or any human vehicle at this point in time or the past). And that was the original commenter's point. There is no "under a continent" for a submarine.
I wish you'd les with unmanned, but then id've never clicked the article
Where is this from?
Cabin in the woods 2011

Anyone asking where this is from, watch it! Its soooo goooood!
I totally agree!
