Antarctica

Antarctica was a continent encompassing the southern-most area of the Earth, including its south pole.
In the late 17th century, a cartographer created a map, from what was learned from European explorers and traders, of the lands that had coastlines on the Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea. Although Antarctica was unknown at this time, he included in his map a land called "Terra Austr Incognita" south of Nova Hollandia. This was centuries before Humans discovered and explored this continent. (, opening credits)
In the assignment patch for Apollo 7 in the mid-20th century, a peninsula of this continent was included in the design. ()
In the mid-20th century, Antarctica was seen on the photograph "The Blue Marble". ()
