This is Point Nemo, the spot farthest away from any land in the world. You are closer to astronauts aboard the ISS than humanity

@AlchemyFox Are you the real Davy Jones, Ma'am? 😁

@MissyChrissy Possibly. It would explain a lot.

@AlchemyFox i think mine is next to yours. Howdy neighbor.

@helenS Well, there would be a certain poetry to that I guess. 👍

@Ynotisay ... and through the storms in all their thundering, my ship will sail, and will not sink!

@helenS The Point Nemo Mantra. 👍

@ninalanyon The majority of satellites orbiting the Earth do so at altitudes between 160 and 2,000 kilometers.

@pride49 Yes? What's your point? That still puts them further from Point Nemo than Point Nemo is from land most of the time. 160 km altitude means that they are over 12 000 km from the surface at the other side of the Earth (180°). At 90° from Point Nemo they are still over 7 000 km away from it. So most of the time they are further away than the nearest land

@ninalanyon oh ok, I suppose at some point they both are and aren't the closet point from land

@MissyChrissy It may come from a ship perhaps – I have no idea.

@helenS Thank you anyway, Ma'am

@MissyChrissy @helenS maybe an RC drone launched from a ship? Could even be taken over the railing and then cropped.

@DiegoWolfe for later...

@Lara08 Thank you
