The Antarctic Mountains are uniquely shaped, the pyramids of late being the talk of internet users.
The emergence of a pyramid-shaped mountain in the southern part of the Earth gave rise to speculations.
There is speculation that the shape of the pyramid shows the presence of aliens on Earth, some are convinced that the shape of the pyramid is artificial from foreign civilizations outside humans.
But according to experts, the phenomenon of the mountain pyramid in Antarctica is a matter of course, not due to interference from aliens but because of the influence of nature.
Quoted from Live Science, Tuesday, December 6, 2016, Eric Rignot, professor of Earth systems science from the University of California, Irvine, United States admitted, the shape of the mountain circulating on the internet is similar to the pyramid.
"But the shape of the pyramid is impossible, some of the peaks (mountains) partly look like pyramids, but the mountains have only one to two sides, not the four sides common to the pyramids," Rignot told Live Science.

The pyramid mountain in Antarctica is actually not an official name. The name is pinned by internet users because the shape is similar to the pyramid.
According to a research paper published by the US Geological Survey (USGS) in 2007, the area mentioned as a pyramid mountain is one of the tops of mountains in the Ellsworth mountains of Antarctica. The name of the mountains in honor of American aviator Lincoln Ellsworth who discovered the mountains on November 23, 1935.
Antarctic pyramid mountain is located in the southern part of the Ellsworth mountains known as the Heritage Range area. According to the USGS, this area is known as the grave of extraordinary fossils, one of which is the fossil of the Cambrian-era sea extinction that was more than 500 million years ago.
According to Google Earth, the pyramid's mountain is not high enough, that is 1265 meters, roughly one-fifth of the height of North America's highest mountain, Denali.
Meanwhile, Mauri Pelto, professor of environmental science Nichols College, Dudley, Massachusetts, United States explains, the mountain is interesting is the side that forms like a pyramid. Pelto argues that melting and freezing erosion causes the shape of the mountain to resemble a pyramid. This happens when the snow or water meets the crevices or fissures of the mountain during the day and when the night and temperature begin to fall, the snow frosts and extends into ice.
This widespread ice had an impact on the mountain's cracks. Given this erosion occurred many times, eventually causing all parts of the mountain rock to sprawl. This condition, said Pelto, also resulting in the form of a mountain pyramid, including a pyramid form in the Matterhorn, in the Alps.The pyramid mountain in Antarctica is actually not an official name.
