What direction does the antarctic plate move?
The Antarctic Plate moves primarily in a northeasterly direction, away from the South Pole. It is one of the slowest moving tectonic plates, drifting at a rate of a few centimeters per year. The movement is driven by the process of seafloor spreading at the boundaries of the plate.
