Google maps now extends to (a tiny part of) Antarctica

Google Maps now officially extends to all seven continents.

I've always felt a certain attachment to Antarctica considering where it used to be located a few hundred million years ago:

Antarctica's over there in the far east, extending even a bit into the northern hemisphere. So Antarctica used to be where all the action was but now it's isolated, cold and covered with snow. Too bad melting the ice caps would cause massive flooding because if there were no consequences to it it would be a ton of fun to terraform. Well, warm up (it's already technically terraformed since it's part of Terra).
