>>2853163 - WHAT IS THE SOUTHERN CROSS POINTING TOO?
I had found this image interesting only because of the way that the map took you from Antartica to another location. Only because the immediate push back on this issue… did I look a little further. The white cross on Antartica is pointing in the direction of McMurdo Station (MM symbolism)
McMurdo is serviced seasonally by three airports:
Phoenix Airfield (ICAO: NZFX), a compacted snow runway which replaced Pegasus Field (ICAO: NZPG) in 2017
Sea Ice Runway (ICAO: NZIR), an annual runway constructed on the sea ice nearest McMurdo Station
Williams Field (ICAO: NZWD), a permanent snow runway
Both "Phoenix" and "William" are cult related names
There is a 1983 image of the USNS Southern Cross at McMurdo Station shows cargo operations on a floating ice pier. - SOUTHERN CROSS. Might be worth digging a little deeper. The fact that there is a White Cross that is only visible if you really zoom in on the map is odd… clicking on the human icon and then back on the map, launches the map to a new location. why?
