You've probably never seen an image of Earth like this one. It is centered on the middle of the Pacific Ocean, which gives us a taste of just how enormous it is. As Minnesotastan points out at TYWKIWDBI, there are places in the Pacific Ocean for which the antipode is also in the Pacific Ocean. On the bright side, this map features New Zealand prominently, while many omit it.

Right here in the middle of that all is where they try and land all our space debris like falling Space Station MIR and Skylab. They're not allways great at it as Skylab fell on Australia rather than in the ocean.
