Let's consider one section at a time of that 1968 study.

This is just a section from the study in the last post. Note the nautical miles for each stretch. These have been authoritatively documented by the study, apparently, so the work has already been done for me, here. All I have to do is verify it. 

For example, Halley to Sanae is 550 miles. (I'll dispense with the variance between nautical and statute for now since they're close enough, it won't make a difference to my analysis). 

Googling...

I didn't find what I wanted on that search... but I DID find something about "gateway cities to Antarctica" which is interesting too.

  Cape Town, for many years a launching point for early sea explorations, is 
now one of five official ’gateway cities’ to Antartica, an international 

arrangement that is set to generate substantial economic benefits for the mother city. 

Rick says-- "official gateway cities" to Antarctica? Hmmm... this is interesting. Here's the source website.

MORE QUOTE from above
Along with Christchurch in New Zealand, Hobart in Australia, Ushuaia in Argentina and Punta Arenas in Chile, the City CapeTown has signed a statement of intent that binds it to jointly explore the benefits of academic and best practice exchange in respect of Antarctica.

Rick says... note that the city "binds" it to "best practice"-- which is questionable. What does that mean? If Antarctica is a perimeter around flat earth, this seems like flowery language to cover an enforcement mechanism to hide something.

New Zealand’s most visited tourist attraction, the International Antarctic Centre, provides visitors with a simulated experience of Antarctica, including its storms, snow and ice,
UNQUOTE

Rick says... Who, in their right mind, would create a simulation of Antarctica when Antarctica is right next door by air with several flights a day now? The idea of a simulation points to the suspicion of a simulated GLOBE world to cover up the flat one, and the perimeter Antarctica. 

Here's a link to a Bing image search on the center.

A few selected images I found particularly interesting...

Idiot tourists pretending to be shocked by cold 

air of simulated Antarctica

Completely inane simulation of an Antarctic tractor sorrounded by cardboard ice making it look like a movie set for "Lost in Space".

Real penguins trapped in a simulated Antarctica looked dazed, lost and confused. Can't blame them.

A display board that hypnotizes visitors into thinking that Antarctica is an island along with an unrealistic model of a sea lion on the floor.

24,000 visitors a year?

Other tourism initiatives include catering for Antarctic-bound tourists. Most people get there by small or medium ship, and on arrival are flown onto the mainland to try their hand at mountaineering, skiing, or visiting the South Pole. The tourism market is big, with some 24 000 people visiting the continent via Ushuaia and Punta Arenas each year, despite the absence of any tourism infrastructure for them once they’ve arrived. 

Unquote

Rick points out.... No tourism infrastructure? So-- NO tourists can "tour" the many science stations-- but they CAN visit the simulation center. The science stations have a hotel quality to them sufficient for science and exploration teams throughout the year. Major facilities are being installed all over Antarctica for their work and yet there is NO TOURIST INFRASTRUCTURE. None. Nothing. No tourist has thought to VERIFY DISTANCES between research stations. 

quote

Instead, it is used exclusively for peaceful and scientific purposes by the 48 member countries, most of which have research bases there, including South Africa. Many visitors are attracted to it on account of its desolate, windswept icy beauty. In the 2007-2008 summer season, there were 46 265 visitors.”

unquote

Rick repeats... 48 countries have bases... there were almost 50,000 visitors in 2007-08.  There is no tourist infrastructure. So... is there something wrong with this picture or is it just me? Of course, "they" claim there is no tourist facility to "protect the environment" and that Antarctica is key to Earth's weather-- yet the infrastructure for the bases is huge, extensive, impressive and quite stunning. Why can't "some tourists" visit the bases? Why isn't there a tourist trip to each base for limited numbers every year? But there is NOTHING. "They" say tourists are only interested in the stark no man's land isolation aspect of Antarctica. Only scientists are interested in the bases. Yet tourists (50,000) outnumber scientists (5000) by 10 to 1. Why can't each base have a section for visiting tourists from all walks of life? No. Tourists are effectively BANNED FROM BASES... except through MY VIRTUAL TOUR.

Uhhh... we sort of like tourists. We like everyone. What's the problem?
