Article in the news today about an American man becoming the first to cross Antarctica unaided. It took him 54 days to complete the 930 mile trek. While I for one highly respect the guy for his epic achievement I would like to know what the flat Earthers view on this mission is given how they view Antarctica.

So where is the edge of the Earth supposed to be?
If we are not speculating then we must assume
I'm just a bit mystified by why O'Grady apparently didn't come across the Ice Wall that FET talks about. He finished his expedition at the Ross Ice Shelf after reaching the South Pole. So where is the edge of the Earth supposed to be?
If that was the route taken Stack, I would have thought that would add up to a bit more than the distance he covered and taken rather longer!
Where is the South Pole on that route anyway?
It seems as if they went to the south pole base and basically turned back.
Personally I don't believe it. National Geo has already proved to run FAKE stories, iehttps://www.dailywire.com/news/33782/fake-news-nat-geo-admits-viral-photo-polar-bear-amanda-prestigiacomoThe whole space thing with a globe is absurd.
Some British dude has done it nowhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/science-environment-46708667/capt-lou-rudd-is-first-briton-to-cross-antarctic-unaidedI don't know whether his route was similar.
