dontscrewmyday Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 From what altitude starts a country (Thailand in this case) .? I believe in USA it s 600 000 ft(FL 600), over this, it s the stratosphere. Can be different in Thailand. 600k feet is the highest altitude than a military plane can go. From sea, it s 20 nautical miles from coast. What about from under? Deep in the ground... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 From Wiki. Your 600k feet is a bit much. There is no international agreement on the vertical extent of sovereign airspace (the boundary between outer space—which is not subject to national jurisdiction—and national airspace), with suggestions ranging from about 30 km (19 mi) (the extent of the highest aircraft and balloons) to about 160 km (99 mi) (the lowest extent of short-term stable orbits). The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale has established the Kármán line, at an altitude of 100 km (62 mi), as the boundary between the Earth's atmosphere and the outer space, while the United States considers anyone who has flown above 50 miles (80 km) to be an astronaut; indeed descending space shuttles have flown closer than 80 km (50 mi) over other nations, such as Canada, without requesting permission first.[1] Nonetheless both the Kármán line and the U.S. definition are merely working benchmarks, without any real legal authority over matters of national sovereignty. I don't think there is one downward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seastallion Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Is the OP considering tunneling under somewhere? It brings to mind the (apparent) trigger for Desert Storm when Iraq drilled at a diagonal into Kuwaiti oilfields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 If, however, the OP were to journey in the other direction ... towards the Center of the Earth. \Replenished with the water the journey continued with haste, but \\somehow they find themselves separated. \kProfessor Lidenbrook's \nephew Axel found himself alone. His mind was seized with \unparalleled fear and he saw memories of home flashing before him. \His fiancee Grauben, his house and friends in Hamburg. He saw \hallucinations of all the incidents of the journey. And, unworthyas he felt, he knelt in fervent prayer and then, in panic, he ran \blindly through a tunnel only to reach a dead end, where he fellpanting for breath. In the darkness he cried... voices... \voices... voices... He heard voices. He heard his uncle's voice.Due to the shape of the gallery and the conducting power of the \rocks, his uncle's voice was uncannily travelling around thewalls. By means of their chronometers they discovered they were \four miles apart, so Axel set about the task of rejoining theProfessor and their guide. \Credit I think the OP often hears voices ...

dontscrewmyday Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 What country is on the opposite side of Thailand? I am even thinking to create a tube to join my 2 houses. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wym Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Get the lat/long coordinates from gMap. Swap N for S on the latitude, subtract 180 from the longitude. Plug this antipodal point back into gMap. Most of Thailand drops into the Atlantic off Peru, but small area above Ubon hits the coast south of Lima.
