If you could stand exactly at the North Pole is every direction you look south?

Question

.
And how do you give directions to someone there if every way you travel is south?

Answer 1

This is a moot issue, if you would utilize your obvious intelligence for the right reason other than just wasting time you might even be impressed with yourself.

Answer 2

Yes, but it`s like the stopped clock correct twice a day thing,because the surface at the north pole is moving.

You would have to point directions out to someone, and say over there is a lump of ice and point the other way and say 'theres another' and point the other way and say theres a big hungry polar bear running north, oh s*** lets run the other way.

Answer 3

yes it is because if you are in the direct center of the north pole then every direction is going to be south and there is no other direction, and also the is no other way to go but south.

Answer 4

as far because the cardinal guidelines, certain. via the indisputable fact that is what the cardinal guidelines are in accordance with. The north and south pole. merely look on the strains of longitude. That receives rid of East and West because they meet at both pole. on the north pole, yeah there is no north. Everyway you look its south

Answer 5

Yup. Except when you look up, which is not east, west, north or south...

Directions would be on a 360 degree basis--pick the prime meridian (through Greenwich) as point zero and 360, tell somebody to turn x number of degrees left or right (clockwise or counterclockwise if you like) and move y number of miles south of northpole.

Answer 6

Once you are at the North Pole, every other direction is south. It is either south-west, south-east or south-south.

Answer 7

Yes, so long as you were exactly at the north pole. However, the north pole is a pinprick in size in theory, and you cannot fit your feet on a space that small, so you would have to be slightly north, south, east or west of the north pole, rendering it impossible to actually be exactly on the north pole.

Answer 8

Any direction you look will always be only south except if you look up you will be looking north.
You could step off by one foot and you would have all directions
NSEW.

Answer 9

Yes, every direction you look in is South, as long as we are talking about your view being horizontal, or below horizontal. As to giving directions to someone, this is very simple, use lines of longitude and latitude!

Answer 10

I love this question!
Yes, every direction would be due South, but I don't think you have to worry about too much traffic up there!

Answer 11

No
You could look - Up - Down -Over There - Away - In the direction of something. Got it?
