Point Nemo, located in the South Pacific Ocean, is often called the oceanic "pole of inaccessibility." It's the farthest point from any land, making it one of the most remote places on Earth. At this spot, you're closer to the astronauts orbiting Earth on the International Space Station (ISS), about 400 km (250 miles) above, than to any other human being on land. The closest inhabited land masses are over 2,600 km (1,600 miles) away
