Distance between Pietermaritzburg, South Africa and the South Pole

6722 km = 4177 miles

During our calculation of the distance to the South Pole we make two assumptions:

  1. We assume a spherical Earth as a close approximation of the true shape of the Earth (an oblate spheroid). The distance is calculated as great-circle or orthodromic distance on the surface of a sphere.
  2. We calculate the distance between a point on the Earth’s surface and the South Pole as the length of the arc of the meridian passing through this point and the South Pole.

The South Pole

The South Pole is a point where imaginary Earth’s axis of rotation crosses the Earth’s surface in the Southern Hemisphere.
The South Pole is the southernmost place on Earth. The South Pole latitude is 90° South. The South Pole longitude is undefined, because the South Pole is a point where all the meridians meet.
For the same reason the South Pole has no time zone.
For software and devices using GPS satellite navigation system 0° West may be used as conditional South Pole longitude.
