WATCH - Something Strange is Happening in Antarctica, Are THEY Hiding It? For years now, Antarctica has been shrouded in mystery. Antarctica is not owned by one nation, but various researchers and scientists call this place home, and over the years installations have allowed them to carry out their research in the area, many of which have led to teams making fascinating discoveries. Antarctica is also known among certain groups as being a place that has many strange mysteries. For example, in recent years people using Google Earth have claimed that many strange artifacts can be found across the continent, some of which include giant pyramids, large underwater structures, which some say are proof of ancient civilizations, and also giant structures that appear to resemble modern-day recreations of unidentified flying objects, with many of them being in the shape of a disc. It's important to note though that scientists and researchers don't accept these theories, and say that nothing strange is going on down in Antarctica. One of the most recent discoveries to be shared online is that of a giant object seen in the snow, with one person saying that it looks like a giant robot. The idea of there being a large 20m tall robot in Antarctica has split people, with some saying that different programs are happening right now in Antarctica and that people have no idea that these are going on, while others said that it's unlikely that this is what we're looking at, and say that the melting ice around this rock just makes it look like it's in the shape of a humanoid. Regardless, amateur researchers have said that for years now whispers of secret programs being conducted in the region have been leaked online, with some of these leaks reporting that officials have found ancient technology, large structures, and even unidentified flying objects. One person using Google Earth was able to measure this structure and said that it comes in at 20m. One believer said the following about the discovery, It's the perfect place to do this as no one would know this was happening. I know some have said that these government installations are put here so they're out of the way of the general public, and this makes sense as it would allow them to conduct research without anyone knowing. Some though disagreed with this statement and said that although they believe that strange things are happening down in Antarctica, they think this one is a bit of a reach. As mentioned before though, one of the most interesting discoveries that are often shared around is that of large crafts seen beneath the ice, with some saying that due to melting ice in glaciers, some of these unidentified crafts are now being exposed.

Dive into the enigmatic and enduring mystery of Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance in our latest episode of "Vanished." Once a powerful labor leader known for his presidency over the Teamsters Union, Hoffa's 1975 disappearance remains one of America's most perplexing unsolved cases. This episode meticulously explores the events of July 30, 1975, when Hoffa last made contact outside a suburban Detroit restaurant, only to never be seen again. We'll dissect the complex web of Mafia connections, corrupt union dealings, and the numerous theories that have surfaced over the decades. Featuring expert interviews, archival audio, and a deep dive into FBI files, join us as we attempt to piece together the clues left behind in the hunt for the truth. What really happened to Jimmy Hoffa, and could new leads possibly shed light on this cold case? Tune in to "Vanished" to explore the dark intersections of crime and labor power where Jimmy Hoffa last stood.
  • Early Background and Power: Jimmy Hoffa, a powerful union leader, mysteriously disappeared in 1975. Known for his iron-fisted leadership of the Teamsters and connections with organized crime, Hoffa was deeply involved in the labor movement and had significant influence due to his aggressive tactics and Mafia ties. (00:04-01:32)
  • Last Day and Disappearance: On July 30, 1975, Hoffa left his home to meet two Mafia members at the Machus Red Fox restaurant in Bloomfield Township, but they never appeared. After making a call to his wife stating no one showed up, Hoffa vanished, sparking one of the most infamous missing person cases in U.S. history. (01:32-03:05)
  • Mafia and Union Ties: Hoffa's career was marked by his use of union funds, connections with gangsters, and efforts to use his power to protect union interests, which often involved illegal activities. These elements played a central role in both his rise and his mysterious disappearance. (03:05-13:41)
  • Investigations and Theories: Numerous investigations have yielded theories ranging from Hoffa being murdered by Mafia associates, including suggestions he was disposed of at a Mafia-controlled landfill or cremated. None of these theories have been definitively proven, keeping Hoffa's fate a subject of speculation and mystery. (13:41-20:00)
  • Legacy and Impact: Despite his controversial methods, Hoffa significantly improved conditions for American workers and expanded the Teamsters to two million members, making it the largest union at the time. His aggressive approach left a lasting impact on labor unions in the U.S., and his disappearance remains a compelling mystery.

They Planned This All Along... Weather modification is the act of intentionally manipulating or altering the weather. The most common form of weather modification is cloud seeding, which increases rain or snow, usually for the purpose of increasing the local water supply. Weather modification can also have the goal of preventing damaging weather, such as hail or hurricanes, from occurring; or of provoking damaging weather against the enemy, as a tactic of military or economic warfare like Operation Popeye, where clouds were seeded to prolong the monsoon in Vietnam. Weather modification in warfare has been banned by the United Nations under the Environmental Modification Convention. H.A.A.R.P The most prominent instrument at HAARP is the Ionospheric Research Instrument (IRI), a high-power radio frequency transmitter facility operating in the high frequency (HF) band. The IRI is used to temporarily excite a limited area of the ionosphere. Other instruments, such as a VHF and a UHF radar, a fluxgate magnetometer, a digisonde (an ionospheric sounding device), and an induction magnetometer, are used to study the physical processes that occur in the excited region.Initially HAARP was jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). It was designed and built by BAE Advanced Technologies. Its original purpose was to analyze the ionosphere and investigate the potential for developing ionospheric enhancement technology for radio communications and surveillance. Work on the HAARP facility began in 1993. The current working IRI was completed in 2007; its prime contractor was BAE Systems Advanced Technologies. As of 2008, HAARP had incurred around $250 million in tax-funded construction and operating costs. Nick Begich Jr., the son of the late U.S. Representative Nick Begich and brother of former U.S. Senator Mark Begich and retired Alaska state senator Tom Begich, is the author of Angels Don't Play This HAARP. He has claimed that the HAARP facility could trigger earthquakes and turn the upper atmosphere into a giant lens so that "the sky would literally appear to burn." He maintains a website that claims HAARP is a mind control device. Contrails from the planes that the Air Force has the most of, hmmm. Barium and Aluminum is killing crops and have major impacts on our health.
