Found in the Earth 14,000 years later ― NASA spots white, glowing skull in this desert

NASA warns of a “vast, growing” Earth anomaly — It’s getting closer to the U.S.

NASA finds water in the universe — It’s been ejected at 800 mph in the Solar System
From the series: more historic discoveries on our planet… NASA has just discovered in the heart of the hottest and most inhospitable desert on the planet, a strange white, glowing skull. And, contrary to what we might think, it is not a fossil or a literal skull, but rather a surreal landscape: the Trou au Natron. Also known as the Emi Koussi caldera, in Chad, which, seen from space, looked very much like a skull – but how would it be possible to find this skull then?


What is this glowing skull in this desert?
Okay, but what exactly is Trou au Natron? Well, this is a place in Chad that was once an active glacial lake full of life, but now it seems dead. In fact, researchers believe that Trou au Natron was a thriving lake until about 14,000 years ago, until the moisture in the region began to disappear. And what remains today is a dry, salty lakebed that glistens in the sun in the middle of the Sahara.

The most surprising thing of all is that, at first glance, the white, glowing summit of the Emi Koussi volcano appears to be covered in snow, which would clearly be something unlikely for a place in the Sahara desert. However, in the images captured by the astronauts, the white spot forms what appears to be the outline of a giant skull, with its shadows cast by the edges of the caldera creating the eye sockets. That’s why we think we’ve found a white, glowing skull.


However, this visual effect, impressive as it may be, is nothing more than the result of a combination of natural factors: the dry bed of an ancient salt lake and the deep topography of the volcanic caldera. The whiteness we see is caused by salt deposits accumulated after millennia of evaporation. And the dark eyes are the craters and depressions formed by past eruptions, which are now inactive.

How could there be water in the desert?
Well, NASA didn’t find any fossils or bones. But even so, the natural formation ended up being nicknamed a skull because of its striking appearance. It’s also worth mentioning that Emi Koussi is the highest peak in the Sahara Desert. It is 3,415 meters high. Its caldera, called Trou au Natron, reaches almost 745 meters deep and measures dozens of kilometers in diameter. It is worth mentioning that during the Ice Age, this place was filled with fresh water and ice, forming a glacial lake that supported life forms and influenced the local climate.


That’s where this discovery comes in, because traces of this humid past are still visible in the desert landscapes:

Erosion channels are carved by water.
Depressions are formed by runoff.
Saline sediments tell a story of slow and constant transformation.

Why is the discovery of this white glowing skull important to us?

Well, this discovery changes the way we see the Sahara Desert. After all, we imagined that this place was always dry and desolate, but what we see now is a geological palimpsest, which, going beyond technical terms, consists of all the layers of time, climate, and volcanic activity accumulated in natural formations – and which gave rise to the formation of our skull.

It is worth mentioning that the fact that Trou au Natron was a lake, back then, 14,000 years ago, is also fundamental. This means that the Sahara was once a place with much more humidity, vegetation, and perhaps even human occupation. In other words, it shows us that desertification is not eternal, but rather a phase. It is no wonder that experts are already thinking about creating a huge artificial lake in the desert.

Yeah, the Sahara was once a verdant Greenland

Millions of years ago, Antarctica was a basic tropical rainforest

Not a real human skull. Read the post.


People wey dey lazy to read the whole post, go jump to conclusion, think say na real human skull.

It is well known that bones of Whales, etc have been found in several Deserts all around the World, and the only one Truly sensible explanation for these is that Noah's Floor was real! Our CREATOR once Judged this World and HE would soon Judge again, as most of HIS Temples (Human bodies) is now being corrupted as it happened in Noah's days. Abomination that renders desolate started again among Humanity when the Man of Sin was CORONAted few years ago. All the Deceptions of the agents of the Devil to hide HIM from majority has failed for those that truly Seek HIM. Exactly as written in Genesis, Scientists have recently confirmed that their is Ocean above is that is several Times more massive than all the Oceans of the World. Nothing like Moon-Landing or outer Space, the Firmament that Holds the Water above can Never be penetrated.

Well, the Sahara was once greener than it is now. A lot of evidence is there to prove it.

You can believe in creation and also understand that the flood may have changed the environment and climate drastically

Infact a lot of tribes that live in sub Saharan Africa once lived where the Sahara is, but the drying up of the Sahara drove them southwards.

We're talking evidence based facts, this one's bringing baseless ancient mythology and conspiracy theories. 🤡

Another reminder that Africa was once World. Imagine Chad been mentioned in Genesis as the birth place of father Abraham. You dig?

They always come up with these kind of narration as a pretext of coming to study the findings and then end up mining the minerals there covertly, Africa wise up. angry

All these discoveries has been there for centuries. Just because you went there or saw it via satellite for the first time does not mean it just happened.

70% of these discoveries are pure lie and nonsense
