Hey it’s just south of Orkney. Small world.
Comment on what is north?
JimVanDeventer@lemmy.world 2 days agoThe peninsula is considered the north side. So the location of the shipwreck is south of South America.

You’re looking at it from the South Pole, so there is no West, only North.

Well sure, and I get that, but the map we’re looking at clearly has a W-E line marked, presumably on the prime meridian. It’s pretty westerly in that regard which seems like a pretty sensible perspective to me on how to navigate at the south pole.
If you handed me this map and told me to go North I would go to Dronning Maug Land.
