Now this is a very interesting question. Let's assume that the universe is round or oval-shaped and flat(the baloon analogy), then "south of the South pole" would mean that we would be passing through a "hyperspace" that allows us to reach the other side of the universe, probably instantaneously.

In other words, it could be where wormholes are located.

Yes! But south of the south pole is not the only place, it's basically any position in spacetime you care to imagine - what you're trying to visualize is something that is at an additional "right angle" to the fourth dimension.

This is what I talk about in The Holographic Unvierse - New Scientist magazine described the fifth dimensional hologram as being from the "edge of the unverse" - but that edge is all around us, at this additional right angle.

Isn't the title derived from something Stephen Hawking commonly says?

I think a more proper answer than "nothing" would be "I don't know". Not even the most brillient of scientists or mathematicians could know. More interesting than that is the possiblility that the dimensions are closed loops, not lines. So the answer to what's South of the South pole would then become "North". That of course would be invalid, but you could keep moving the same direction until you end where you started.

Yes! I think this aligns nicely with Godel's Incompleteness Theorem. We can't know everything about our own system because we can't get "outside" it. And you're right, there is a certain cyclical/spherical nature to what we're talking about here, as I discussed in "What's Before and After?", and as Hawking did when he suggested the beginning of the universe might be analogous to being at the south pole - for our universe, what's more "south" than that?

Man, with you as a floating head teaching me about extremely complex ideas is really freaking me out. Never ever stop!

Why do you make these so hypnotic.

Start at a point on the surface of the earth and follow your compass south. The needle will direct you along the earth's magnetic field lines to the south pole, where the field "re-enters" the sphere of the earth toward the origin of the field line. Continue to follow said field lines, and you will end up at the core. South of the South Pole is the Earth's core. Any further south than that will become north.

lmao the background is trippy

NORTH!

Asking "whats south of the south pole?" is like asking "what is the mental condition of the letter g?"

The letter g has no mental condition. The south pole has nothing south to it.

True, if all possible variations and possibilities already exist from beginning to end, then we are still left completely free to choose our path through it all. Since we share this space-time with others we are not always completely free. Sometimes someone’s choices will restrict us, or ours will restrict them. Physical laws also restrict us, such as not being able to choose the value of gravity from step to step. Yet this restrictive universe gives us our choices and freedom.

How do we get there from here? Well, if we were to imagine that the Sun is at the center of our screen, then right now, the Earth is on the right of our screen. At noon, our body would be standing "sideway"(remember, the Earth is round), facing the top of the screen, and the Sun would be directly overhead. In order to

go South of our planet, we would have to keep going West(which is perfectly within our capabilities), at noon, at this time of the year.

Could interstellar travel be this simple? If there is a Creator, then I believe it is. I don't think he would want to make things difficult(and so far, I have been able to "visualize" everything, well, except for how creatures from the 1st and 2nd dimensions view things, but we don't need to visualize that,

as long as we grasp the concept. And probably those realities don't even exist(IMO, it goes directly from 0 to 3 dim, which is probably why some say there are only 8 dim), except as concepts)
