fabricated discovery
600-million-year-old tiny humanoid fossils
Snopes found no supporting scientific publication and documented manipulated skeletal imagery and inconsistent institutional details.
satellite-image interpretation
A 400-foot ship is concealed in Antarctic ice
The reporting documents a shape-based interpretation, not an inspected vessel or authenticated wreck discovery. Resemblance in remote imagery alone cannot establish a ship.
misidentification
Artificial Antarctic pyramids
Pyramid-shaped mountain peaks are natural geological formations.
image hoax
Black structure in an iceberg proves a lost city
The particular article and images were not evidence of a discovery. The conclusion should not be generalized into a claim that every subglacial feature is fully known.
