About the Antipode of Wyoming

An antipode is the point on Earth's surface that is diametrically opposite to a given location. For Wyoming, with a centroid at coordinates -43.0321°, 72.4486°, the antipodal point is at 43.0321°, -107.5514°.

How is the Antipode Calculated?

To find the antipode of any location:

  1. Latitude: Invert the sign (-43.0321° becomes 43.0321°)
  2. Longitude: Add or subtract 180° (72.4486° becomes -107.5514°)

Why Are Most U.S. Antipodes in the Ocean?

Over 70% of the Earth's surface is water, and the contiguous United States lies entirely in the Northern Hemisphere. The antipodal points for most U.S. states fall in the Southern Hemisphere's vast Indian Ocean. Only Alaska and Hawaii have small land overlaps with Antarctica, Africa, and French Southern territories.
