The Geographic South Pole isn’t a permanent spot on the map—it actually sits on a massive ice sheet that drifts roughly 33 feet every single year. To compensate for this constant creeping ice flow toward the Weddell Sea, scientists at the Amundsen-Scott Station must physically relocate the pole marker every New Year’s Day. If they skipped this vital annual adjustment, the official marker would slowly slide completely away from Earth’s true rotational axis. During a special mid-summer ceremony, researchers unveil a custom-designed brass and copper marker to pinpoint the exact new location, while the old one is officially retired to a display cabinet. Click the video to discover exactly how this bizarre geographical phenomenon forces us to constantly redraw the very bottom of the world!
