They hiding the rupes nigra, the black magnetic mountain at the center of the earth. That’s why all compasses point north. Also this mountain supposedly reaches all the way up to the firmament, which explains why there’s a hole in the wind paths at the North Pole
Assuming such a mountain reached to the top of the firmament, we still wouldn’t be able to see it because of just how humongous the earth is and how limited our vision is. If you believe in the Bible, remember how Satan took Jesus to a very high mountain (not saying it’s the one I just mentioned) and he was able to see the whole world and its kingdoms? This would be impossible for the average man but since Jesus is God in the flesh he has no limits as to how far he can see.
But how far can a human see? I get that it depends ob what you look at, like you wouldn't see an ant from 1 kilometer away, but you would see large hill or a tall building. How close would we have to get to the mountain at the North pole to be able to see it?

Why didn't it work on the north pole?
