Answer:
The North Pole is the northernmost point on the Earth, lying diametrically opposite the South Pole. It defines geodetic latitude 90° North, as well as the direction of true north. At the North Pole all directions point south; all lines of longitude converge there, so its longitude can be defined as any degree value.

Importance of North Pole
At the North Pole, you will find sea ice and pack ice, which is also white and cold. Hence, they really are the planet's two 'cold sources' influencing the Earth's climate. This fact can be seen as a first reason why we should conduct research in the Polar Regions.
