The south geographic pole lies 90 degrees south of the equator.

The actual, geographic pole, yards away, was marked by a brass plaque that is moved annually, to correct for the flow of the ice.

Nevertheless, the magnetic poles rarely stray far from the geographic poles of the planet.

The orbit allowed the satellite to map a majority of the Earth's surfaces except the geographic poles.

However, the south seasonal cap is centered near the geographic pole.

It was hardly ever seen near the geographic pole, which is about 2000 km away from the magnetic pole.

During the winter months temperatures can drop as low as -75C (-100 F) at the geographic pole.

The needle of a luopan points to the south magnetic pole (it does not point to the geographic pole).

However the magnetic pole, relative to the nearly 'fixed' geographic pole, shifts significantly over time.

Therefore, the position of the station and other artificial features relative to the geographic pole gradually shifts over time.
