Why is there such a large area not covered? Of the explanations, I once thought a hollow earth theory made sense. The satellites can't pass over a hole. This situation arises at the north pole too. However if satellites are fake, then there must be another explanation. If the earth has an ice rim and the photo above is a transform from a reverse mapping to make it look like an island rather than an ice rim, the the center would represent an infinite plain or the reputed 2 mile high ice wall. The photo would be taken from aircraft-- and then put through a digital math transformation using linear algebra / matrix.
The ice wall is typically referred to as surrounding Antarctica at the coast, but other accounts consider a 2 mile high ice wall further "inland". The photo above with the white circle in the center would have to avoid a compression and tranformation of the flat earth ice wall on the extreme limits of the plain.
A drawing like this can afford to show the South Pole and all the features at the extreme south because the transformation includes an official account of where the official south pole shall be. It's at a point south of McMurdo and east of Casey, further OUT on the plain. McMurdo is considered the gateway to the South Pole for a reason-- it's the most accessible station to the POINT on the "south pole rim" which surrounds the flat earth.
Imagine a circle around the edge of the image above... going through the corners of the square. That would be the "south pole rim". The official south pole would be within range of McMurdo at the top left and Casey also at the top left. But it would be out of range of Halley at the lower right... or even Mawson. The theory seems nuts but I wonder if the linear algebra transformation being done can't account for it. If Earth is flat, somehow there is a math transform being dictated to all agencies that must be used to convert that flat area into a sphere. And for some reason, the math transform, at least on aerial photos, cannot work. Thus they white out the center.
That's my theory for now.
To finish this post tonight, I'll install a video that I think might have some merit. It describes the phenomenon of missing parts of Antarctica from the satellite views-- larger missing areas than I've posted above. Again, it's consistent with hiding the larger plain surrounding flat earth.
