Google Earth view of 27 Antarctic stations out of 80 in 10 minutes


I'm not sure what to make of the following. The zoom-in's look fake to me-- as fake as the fake NASA Earth from orbit and the fake Space Station pictures.  Of course, satellites are fake so Google Earth isn't really taking these pics from space. NOTE how the video creator who did this made sure to include REAL photos at ground level of each station he covers. Why would he have to do that? Apparently Google Earth only zooms in so far and it's quite high above the ground so the building are not distinct. And yet Google Earth covers my back yard with the shingles on my roof visible. 



Here again is the Antarctic System Proposal of 1968 that I will keep reviewing because it was 

  • NEVER BEEN IMPLEMENTED
  • Is still a good idea
  • Shows mileages calculated by someone as a point of reference going around Antarctica
  • Can be compared to the video visits above (Stop the video at each station and see if you can find it below)
  • Might have been abandoned and even PREVENTED from fulfillment because it was either impossible to do the 60,000 mile rim of Antarctica on a flat earth-- or WAS possible but would have exposed the earth as flat too easily.
