Following your weak excuse, it would seem that no people in the last ten thousand years ever ventured into the Antarctic interior, and no one ever left a written record, because of a treaty that wasn't inked until 1959.

I never said nobody ventured into the Antarctic interior. That's your conjecture. Nobody has traveled across Antarctica though. They go to the "geographical center" and the backtrack their route back out. No flights go across Antarctica either. They go in and backtrack out on the same path as well. Why is that?

THE SECRET LAND - Operation High Jump - Antarctica Expedition 1947
1:59 of the world beyond that the American government is seeking to do its
2:05 share in the discovery and released to the world of the unknown treasures of
2:10 Antarctica in the interest of all mankind
Operation Deep Freeze I (released 1957)
0:23 larger than the United States and Europe combined less than one-third of this
0:30 great continent has been explored previous expeditions have discovered
0:34 indications of coal iron and other minerals in this last frontier

Now, I've never seen the unknown treasures released. Have you? What happened to releasing it to mankind?
Instead of sharing, it's sealed off through treaty.
Can you explain why? I'll not be getting an answer from you on that, will I.

Yes, this is where it gets hard, because you have to come up with a plausible explanation for such deep secrecy, that passes the giggle test.
I don't have to come up with anything. What answer can you give that will pass 'the giggle test' as to why this vast wealth of resources is kept from the world?
Why have those unknown treasures not been shared with the world? Why has access to those treasures been denied to the world?

Now, I don't really expect you to provide a logical answer to that question.

Your mind is already made up so how could anything I offer up be logical for you?

I expect you to evade it, just as you've evaded all the other questions I've put to you on this thread.
Oh, now that's low! I've answered plenty of your questions, even your poorly phrased ones. It's not my problem if you don't like my answers.

Phil, you claim to have answered my questions, but that’s only partially true. You’ve responded to my questions with counter questions, or with chapter and verse from the Flat Earth Society handbook for true believers. You’ve actually ignored most of the questions I’ve posed to you.

Here’s one that you conveniently sidestepped:

Are you saying that all heavenly bodies, including stars, are flat disks?
If so, how is it possible that astronomers have never captured an image of any heavenly body edge-on to our angle of view?
Are you saying that every body in the observable universe is oriented in a perpendicular angle to our view? How is that possible?
It would mean that our planet is the center of the universe.

Please explain this.

I don't know where you got that information, but it's pure bovine excrement.

Humans have explored every region of Antarctica, from coast to coast. There are literally libraries worth of documenary reports and photographic evidence of these explorations. The continent has also been photographed from space. It's a solid land mass, surrounded on all sides by ocean - not a ring encircling a disk shaped body.

The idea that humans throughout history would have never ventured beyond the geographical center of that continent, is ludicrous. If it's a band of ice surrounding a flat disk, you know good and well that some humans, at some point in our history, would have ventured to the very end of it. Their stories would be legion, and every person on earth would be well acquainted with their findings. The Edge of The World would be the most well known region of The planet.

It's not, because it doesn't exist, Phil.
