Best Answer

You cannot go further south when you are at the South Pole, so there is nowhere you can point that is south. Pointing up is off the planet, so it is not in any direction on a compass, just like at any place on Earth. Directions on a compass only apply to the surface of Earth. Point in any direction around you and you are pointing north.
