This is picture south pole without covered with ice

South pole without covered by ice

CALIFORNIA - Such as whether the south pole without covered by ice? Recently the United States space agency, NASA, shows the south pole pictures "bald" without ice. Looks dry and barren, this antarctica region does not have a contents of the ice that covered its surface. NASA can create such images through the help of computer simulations.

Image released by NASA shows the cold continental Antarctica are not covered by ice. This makes the region such as the flat land which 'boring'. Computer simulations succeeded in showing that Antarctica is actually an area that bumpy. The project of this simulationis is reportedly named Bedmap2, developed by the British Antarctic Survey.

NASA also contributed to the project with performing surface measurements through satellites ICESat which now has been retired. The data obtained has been collected since 1 the last decade.

NASA said, the continent of this Antarctica is covered by big ice. Thickness of the ice that covered some point in the polar surface can reach up to 3 kilometers.

Apparently, this ice at the south pole is not stay silent. The ice flows continuously into the sea. This image also could shows the like what rocks basic in the territory Antarctic.
