Live Wilderness Adventure - Chapter 640
On the deck, a group of people stood, all wearing thick coats, wrapped like penguins.
If it is normal, the sky is still dark and everyone is still sleeping, but now there are a lot of people.
Obviously, everyone is getting up to see the aurora.
The giant cruise ship slid across the sea of complacent ice floes, smashing pieces of thin ice, leaving a clear water mark.
The Arctic Ocean is an ocean covered by sea ice. The perennial non-melting sea water accounts for about two-thirds of the ocean area. There are also a large number of floating ice and icebergs on the rest of the sea.
About half of the sea water here will freeze all year round, the rest will melt in spring and freeze in winter,
The sea ice in the central area has even existed for 3 million years and is a permanent sea ice.
The climate type is even more single, and the simple summary is one word, cold.
“Huh, it’s so cold.”
“It’s too cold, how much is it now?”
“Minus thirty.”
“Only thirty? Why do I feel colder than yesterday?”
The person who asked about the temperature was puzzled. It was 30 a few days ago, and it is colder today. Why is it still 30?
“That guy is an old man from the ugly country. He’s talking about Fahrenheit. It’s close to minus thirty-five degrees Celsius. Hell, my nose is going to freeze. When I go back, Steven will definitely laugh at me.”
“Damn, my thermometer won’t move!”
“what?”
On the deck, a man tapped his thermometer against the railing, making a metal crashing sound.
The temperature on the thermometer didn’t move at all, which made the man a little exasperated.
“The freezing point of kerosene is minus 30 degrees Celsius. It is frozen, and of course it is impossible to move.”
The voice came from the direction of the cabin, and everyone looked up, just to see Bi Fang closing the door and walking to the deck.
“Young, it’s Mr. Bi.”
“Does Mr. Bi also get up to watch the aurora?”
“Any story to tell us today?”
“I re-watched the video last night, it’s amazing, I regret not getting to know each other sooner.”
Everyone greeted each other, and within a week of getting along, everyone on the boat knew the young man, from the captain to the chef to the tourists.
Bi Fang nodded with a smile, came to the man who was shouting that the thermometer was broken, and leaned on the railing: “There are generally three materials for thermometers, kerosene, mercury, and alcohol.”
“The freezing point of kerosene is only minus 30 degrees below zero. If it is lower than this temperature, it will solidify and naturally cannot move. In other words, the cold shrinkage effect is so small that it is almost invisible to the naked eye. The freezing point of mercury is minus 38.87°C, so it cannot be used. “
“When you come to the North Pole, you can only bring an alcohol thermometer, because only its freezing point is minus 117°C, which is suitable for all low-temperature natural environments on the earth. Fortunately, you are not using mercury, otherwise it will be very dangerous in case of an explosion, but Thermometers generally have very little mercury.”
There are many differences between thermometers, the most common being thermometers and thermometers.
Thermometers are usually mercury, thermometers are kerosene and alcohol, and both measure things that can be understood literally.
“why?”
Someone shouted from behind.
Bi Fang raised his head: “Because mercury expands slowly when heated, it won’t cool down quickly after being taken out of the body. It needs to be shaken to return to zero. It is relatively simple and intuitive to use it to measure temperature, and it can also avoid external temperature transfer. errors caused.”
“The kerosene and alcohol thermometers expand very obviously when heated, and change very quickly. They will rise and fall rapidly when they are cold and hot, so they are generally not used to measure body temperature, but are made of red and hung indoors to roughly monitor the weather and temperature. “
The crowd suddenly realized.
“Did you get up so early today?” Bi Fang looked at the time, but it wasn’t breakfast time yet.
Although the real polar night has yet to come, the unusually short day still reminds people to pay attention to the time.
Maybe the vast majority of people don’t have the experience and experience of polar night, but it is conceivable that polar night is not easy to spend, there are many problems, such as people’s biological clock disorder.
A large part of the human body clock is dependent on natural light.
Therefore, a very important way to adjust the rhythm is to eat. The meal time on board is fixed, and only three meals are free.
If you want to add food, sorry, you have to pay extra.
“It’s all to see the aurora.”
“It’s beautiful.”
“Yeah, it’s dawn soon, can you still see it?”
“There is also during the day here, of course.”
“Mr. Bi got up early too.”
“Well.” Bi Fang nodded, pointing to the floating ice not far away, “I will disembark when I find a good place at dawn.”
Going to disembark!
Everyone was a little surprised, but not too surprised. Everyone knew that the reason why Bi Fang was traveling this time was to come to the northernmost tip of Greenland.
I just didn’t expect it to come so soon.
Half an hour later, the green belt in the sky remained the same, and the second natural light slowly appeared from the horizon, the dark black curtain was lifted, and the fish maw white appeared.
A century ago, on the other side of the world, on the continent of Antarctica, the world’s bravest men embarked on a life-and-death adventure.
On the left is the flame, on the right is the sea, and in front is the dream and the glory that the heart is striving for.
A century later, a young man from UU reading www.uukanshu.com came to another node on the earth, without carrying any materials, he will challenge to survive here for a hundred days.
The cold wind howled.
This huge cruise ship over 70 meters smashed a piece of ice floe again, and the sun hung obliquely at the position of the head statue.
The prow of the ship smashed the most dazzling giant sun, leaving behind scattered white light, spreading in all directions.
The shivering tourists squinted and raised their heads. In front of them was a vast expanse of white. It was not a piece of white ice floes, but a continent, a vast and continuous pure white continent.
No trees, no grass, no living things.
There was only an endless cold wind, like a steel knife slashing his face, and there was no blood. All the blood was frozen into blood-colored ice edges at the moment when it was about to splash out.
Many viewers couldn’t help touching their faces, and the skin on their faces was almost frozen. They knew that their faces were not cut by ice knives until their warm fingers touched the skin that looked like ice cubes. , everything just now is just an illusion.
The familiar voice mingled with the sound of the wind rang in their ears, and everyone heard the sound and looked around. I don’t know when, the drone that seemed to never be damaged has been hung above their heads.
“Looking back at the evolution of human beings, if our ancestors did not have adventure and imagination, and the broad mind and magnificent feelings of innovation and sacrifice, human beings would not use canoes to surf the sea and explore the infinite mysteries on the other side of the ocean.”
“Human curiosity, the impulse to take risks, human adventure, ignited the torch of civilization.”
“Adventure is not only in nature’s oceans and mountains, deserts and swamps, but also in densely populated cities.”
“I’m Bi Fang, a professional outdoor explorer, and this time, we’ve come to the North Pole.”
