How can we secure a solar eclipse induced apocalypse next time? More virgin sacrifices? Less? Virgins are quite abundant these days. We could go either way…

    Earth is spherical yes, but we as humans divided it into side to be able to differentiate it easilly where we are relatively to one another.

    So relatively, america is on the another side of earth compared to me, or 180 degrees far on the sphere

      The antipode of America is the Indian ocean. Do you live in the Kergulean Islands? That’s the only land that is 180 degrees from somewhere in America.

      If you want to tell me where you are specifically, I can tell you the exact antipode… but it’s often just somewhere in the ocean… lots of water here.

          It says your antipodal point is in the ocean, sort of between the south and south pacific ocean. Nearest landmass is Chatham Islands, New Zealand… although it seems like quite the swim.

          Antipode coordinates: -45.814, -164.022

          Antipode finder. It’s actually kind of fun to play around with, you realize how much darn ocean there is haha.
