Antipodes. Drop a line from a place straight through the centre of the planet and note where it comes out: that is its antipode. The rule is two lines of arithmetic — keep the size of the latitude and change its hemisphere, then add 180° of longitude and fold anything past the dateline back into range. The surface distance between the pair is always half a great circle, about 20,015 km, and the line through the Earth is its mean diameter, about 12,742 km.

How these tools work

Because roughly 86 per cent of the surface is ocean and land is concentrated in the northern hemisphere, the other side of most places is water, which is what makes the land-on-land pairs interesting. Each page therefore names the nearest place in our coordinate table to that antipode and states the distance — a useful, honest bound rather than a claim about every village on Earth. The form accepts any position, so a hill you once stood on works as well as a capital.
