In Antarctica hunting for meteorites guided by artificial intelligence: according to a study by researchers from the Free University of Brussels and published in Science Advances, the Antarctic ice houses 300,000 meteorites and an algorithm has drawn the treasure map with the points where to find them .
have been found near mountain ranges.
Knowing these dynamics, the researchers then developed an algorithm that, enriched with information on the sites of discovery of most of the meteorites discovered so far in Antarctica, is able to simulate the movement of meteorites that have fallen in the region.
The result is a treasure map available online in which the greater the chances of finding these cosmic stones that can tell so much about the past of the Solar System.
In total 600 more or less large areas, most of which have never yet been explored and which, according to the researchers, could house almost 300,000 meteorites yet to be discovered.
