It makes sense. Antarctica is further away from almost every place on Earth than Space is. Sea level to space is closer than Manhattan to Trenton.

  > Sea level to space is closer than Manhattan to Trenton. "Closer" is a fuzzy concept. I've seen the same point made another way, that you can be closer to space than you are to the sea... even if you're in Japan, a long, narrow island. But then again, imagine if whenever you tried to drive to Trenton from Manhattan, a tornado picked up your car and threw it back to Manhattan.
