The report on this discovery was first published by Karen Barlow , a reporter from ABC news online media. He joined the other team in a vessel Aurora Australis. Course of his name only we had known if this was done by the Australian expedition.
Karen and her team tasked to observe the movement of chunks - chunks of ice in the Antarctic Southern Ocean. observed when the center ice - ice that floats, he found a strange object on the ice. When the object is near, then he knows if the object is a wooden beam. An eyewitness who else on the ship, said she initially thought the object was a seal, but after the close, it turns out a block of wood.
wooden beams and ice are found in the northern Gulf of Commonwealth. The position of the ice itself has been close to the south pole, meaning that the magnetic field in this region is different from the magnetic field in other areas. Compass will not work here, so if a helicopter or plane that "lay" the log will surely trouble to do so.
Moreover, there are no reports of flights to the region, but if we look at the wooden balk perfect rectangular shape, this could be beam indicator if it is the result of man-made. In the ABC news site, some have argued that it is possible that the beam coffin that floated into the sea, since there are few countries that still have that tradition, but the problem remains the same, how the logs can be on top of ice.
There also found wooden beams above the pre-existing ice, and the ice is still part of the inland ice. When the ice was broken danhanyut by ocean currents, the block also come with it. Mausk theory sense, but unfortunately still find very minimal information, because there are no reports of human activity in the area around it, so who put the block still a mystery. Well, it seems we have to wait for the truth of the present invention, whether it is news true, or just a fabrication.
