Hey /pol.

What if the earth was flat, but also spherical and also hyperbolic?

Einstein told us that space-time can bend and flow depending a great many different variables.

What if at the South Pole, there is a huge amount of electromagnetic energy density that is causing our perception (from space) to be distorted?

As you approach the center of this disturbance, distance would seem infinite.

Also, MC Escher drew the "mirror ball" and one is currently sitting at the so-called South pole (not actually magnetic south).
