To travel to the South Pole, one can typically fly to a base camp in Antarctica and then take a specialized flight or expedition to reach the actual South Pole. It is important to plan ahead and be prepared for extreme weather conditions and remote locations.
The North Pole and the South Pole are two places on Earth where one cannot specifically travel east or west, as all directions point south from the North Pole and north from the South Pole.
If you are standing precisely at the South pole, you can only travel north.
You travel south.
They fly.
The distance between the North Pole and South Pole is 12,430 miles. This mileage is calculated on the assumption one could travel between these locations in a straight line.
Once you've reached the south pole, you can only move away from the pole. And since you are moving away from the south pole you can't be traveling south. Aha! But you CAN travel south from the south pole. It's just that you will need a space ship to do it. We do not have two poles, called 'north' and 'south'. The pole is one line that continues indefinitely in a straight line, up from both 'poles' on the globe, as we call them for convenience. Hop in your ship, set your course along the pole, and fly south for ever.
You are moving closer to the South Pole.
North of course! There is no other way to travel.
One step in any direction will take you south.

If you could travel in a straight line from Rio, you would travel about 3,889 miles to the South Pole.
Magnetic field lines always travel from the north pole to the south pole outside the magnet, and from the south pole to the north pole inside the magnet.
