"There is a great circle through America that doesn’t touch any other continent. This must have been how they picked Cape Canaveral. The circle takes off from Cape Canaveral and just misses South Africa and Australia; it just touches the neck of New Guinea and then re-enters the United States at Cape Mendocina in California.
“Only South America, Australia and Antarctica are south of that great circle line: four percent of humanity. Therefore, there is a population northpole that would be nearest to all the population centers of the northern hemisphere, which just happens to be Volgograd, which is where the Russians launch all their space tests from.”
