So let me ask you this, how come when Admiral Byrd flew past the South Pole he said he kept going and came to a 'new' land that no one has ever seen before ? Shouldn't he have come up the other side and continued up towards Africa or South America or Australia ?
How come they increased all expeditions to Antarctica after that and started the Antarctic treaty right after Admiral Byrd's discovery ?
Firstly, Byrd did not fly 'past' the South Pole exactly. He flew to it and then back again, during which he might have indeed ended up 'past' it, but the intent was always to return the way they came. Which they did.
Secondly, he called it an 'unexplored' land on the other side of the Pole from Little America (the base they launched from). Which, at that time, the area was. That being what we now call East Antarctica. An area that is indeed 'Bigger than the United States' as he described it.
I don't know about you, but I would struggle to call approx. 30 years to be 'right after' his flight. Sounds like a strawman in an attempt to make it sound more conspiratorial.
