You may have heard endless debates about where to get out when you start digging from where you are and reach the other end of the Earth through the center. While some people in the UK might assume they’re going out of Australia, the most popular answer for Americans is probably China.
It will also require you to go through the Earth’s core Since there will be a trip of 12,870 kilometers, It’s physically impossible to find out exactly where you’re going. Fortunately, there is an interactive map where you can check the opposite point of your desired location.
This map named Antipodes Mapshows that an opposite point or “antipode” of many of our planet’s most populated cities is somewhere in the ocean.
Considering that about 71 percent of the Earth’s surface is water, it’s not surprising that the probability of landing on land is actually quite low. Still, there are many cities that match or come very close to each other, including Auckland in New Zealand and Seville and Malaga in Spain, and Buenos Aires in Argentina and Shanghai in China.
According to the Antipodes Map website, the Chinese are among the relative minority of countries that will land if they undertake this massive excavation effort. When you dig from the center of Beijing to the other end of the Earth, in Argentina near Bahia Blanca You surface in the Rio Negro. An impressive example of two complete antipodes is Ulan Ude in Russia and Puerto Natales in Chile.
It is shown that the two largest antipode sites with settlements are in East Asia, China and Mongolia, and South America, Argentina and Chile.
On the Antipodes website, “The Australian mainland is the largest land mass with its antipodes entirely in the ocean” he writes.
You can find these antipode points by entering the coordinates on the interactive map on the website. Unfortunately, Turkey is among the countries that find itself in the middle of the ocean as a result of this initiative.
