What Is On The Opposite Side Of Earth From Wyoming?

If you dug a hole in Wyoming and went all the way through the center of the Earth and out the other side, where would you end up?

CHINA?

Not even close. China is in the northern hemisphere, as is Wyoming.

If you dug a hole straight through the center of the Earth from Wyoming, you would come out in the Indian Ocean, approximately 1,100 miles (1,800 kilometers) west of Australia.

This is because most landmasses have their antipode (the diametrically opposite point) located in the vast expanses of the Earth's oceans.

You can do the math and use Google Earth to show exactly where that would be.

Sorry, Flat Earth believers, but you would not come out of some unknown flat bottom.

Here is how you calculate it.  But then I will show you how to cheat and find out the easy way.

Let's start digging in Casper, Wyoming, at 42.87° N and -106.31° W.

The antipode for the coordinates 42.87° N and -106.31° W is 42.87° S and 73.69° E.
To find the antipode, you follow these steps:

Latitude: The latitude is the same value but with the opposite cardinal direction. For 42.87° N, the antipode's latitude is 42.87° S.

Longitude: Subtract the original longitude from 180° and invert the cardinal direction. For 106.31° W, the calculation is 180° - 106.31° = 73.69°, and the opposite direction is East.

Original Location: 42.8405, -106.3380
Antipode Location: -42.8405, 73.6620

Using the website, just zoom in to your location, and it will show you where that would be on the opposite side of the planet.
