Ascension Island isn't the middle of nowhere but you can see the middle of nowhere from there.

In case you ever wanted to know where the REAL middle of nowhere is, it is Point Nemo. Point Nemo is officially known as “the oceanic pole of inaccessibility,” or the point in the ocean farthest from land. Located at 48°52.6’S 123°23.6’W, the spot is quite literally the middle of nowhere, surrounded by more than 1,000 miles of ocean in every direction.

*** Point Nemo ***

LP, Visiting the grands for Thanksgiving week and working from an old model iPhone. Spent in a year in DGAR myself (off ramp from the fast track to fleet admiral and to the north of Pt Nemo). I think we could see the end of the world from DGAR, had a blast there nevertheless.
