Learn more physics! Antartica was not always covered by ice.
Millions of years ago, Antartica was located further north than
it is today making it warmer. Is it possible that under
Antartica's ice sheet there are numerous fossils of very ancient
and unknown lifeforms? Would there even be well preserved
ancient corpses of those lifeforms? Thank you! There are many
fascinating fossils in Antarctica.You can find many good
articles by googling "antarctic fossils". To the best of my
limited knowledge, there are not any special "well preserved
ancient corpses" because the time it took for the continent to
drift south and get cold was far too long to fresh-freeze
anything. I suppose it's possible that something froze quickly
(like the occasional Arctic mammoth) in a storm, and then stayed
frozen. However, I don't think anything like that has been
found. A geologist or paleontologist might be a better person to
ask. p.s. My son, an Antarctic veteran, says that ice keeps
forming on top and the ice lower down gets push
