How the antipode of Rosetta is found

An antipode is the point exactly opposite on the other side of the planet. The latitude of Rosetta changes hemisphere and the longitude moves by 180°, so 31.4°N 30.4°E becomes 31.4°S 149.6°W. That point is 12,742 km away straight through the Earth and about 20,015 km along the surface in any direction.
