Wow! impressive!!-¿Did you know that the Nemo Point is so far away that the humans closest to it are the astronauts?

"You are facing one of the most complicated and difficult to reach places on the planet"

"Point Nemo" is the most remote, inaccessible and isolated place on planet Earth in absolute terms. It is a location in the middle of the Pacific Ocean 1600 km from Ducie Island (Pitcairn), Motu Nui Island (Easter Island) and Maher Island.

On the other hand the astronauts are the humans that are closer to the place, since the International Space Station orbits Earth to a maximum of 416 km, whereas the nearest inhabited terrestrial mass is to more than 2,700 km.

This site was discovered in 1992 thanks to technological advances by the Croatian-Canadian engineer Hrvoje Lukatel, who used an adapted geospatial computer program to find information.

It is also known as the "oceanic pole of inaccessibility", because its official name looks like a tongue twister, was nicknamed as Nemo Point, in memory of the famous marine antihero of the writer Jules Verne. In addition Nemo means "nobody" in Latin, something very appropriate, because rarely it is visited by the human beings.

In fact, the entire region around Nemo Point is well known to space agencies, who officially call it the "South Pacific Uninhabited Zone."

In addition, since the region is so isolated from land masses, neither does the wind carry much organic matter. As a result, there is little food and, as there is no material that falls as "marine snow", the bottom is also lifeless. D'Hondt describes it as "the least biologically active region of the ocean in the world".

In particular, space agencies in Russia, Europe and Japan have used it as a "space cemetery". More than a hundred dismantled space objects occupy this landfill, which includes fragments of satellites and the Mir space station, among others.

The fastest way to get to Nemo Point is to sail, because with the fastest boat it took 15 days, 10 hours and 37 minutes to arrive, and when they passed, they were closer to the astronauts than the rest of the humans. Planet Earth.

If you want to visit the place you just have to put these coordinates on your GPS [45º52.6S, 123º23.6W] and start navigating the immense sea. But remember, once you are there, you will be completely alone!

Thanks for watching.
