Explorers should be interested inThe center of Antarctica , Here is very far away from any coast of Antarctica. Its specific location has not yet been fully determined, because the definition of the Antarctic coastline is unclear. According to a calculation, it is located at 85°50′S 65°47′E. British Antarctic Survey calculated that it is located at 82°53′14″S 55°4′30″E without ice cover, and it is located at 83°50′37″S 65°43′ when ice cover is calculated. 30″E. The Soviet Union once established a scientific research station at 82°06'S 54°58'E, which was also named after it. This scientific research station is 878 kilometers (546 miles) from the South Pole and has an elevation of 3,800 meters (12,467 feet). However, this research station was closed on December 26, 1958 due to safety concerns caused by being too far away from other Soviet research stations. Today there is covered with ice and snow except for a statue of Lenin.
