What Was Antarctica Like 90 Million Years Ago? | Science Documentary

Mysterious Buried for 90 Million Years — When Antarctica Was A Jungle | Science Documentary

In this science documentary, we travel back 90 million years to uncover a forgotten Antarctica—one that looked nothing like the frozen desert we see today. Beneath kilometers of ice, scientists discovered fossilized forest soil containing roots, pollen, and spores, revealing that this polar continent was once covered by dense forests and flowing rivers. This science documentary explores how trees and entire ecosystems survived in a land that still experienced months of darkness each year. What climate conditions allowed such life to thrive at the edge of the world? Join this science documentary as we uncover the astonishing time when Antarctica was a jungle.
