For Dr. Fontana's advice, Tang Feng accepted it sincerely, and everyone said that this is the experience summed up by people with the experience of crossing the pole twice, which is definitely the most precious advice for himself, a rookie who came to the Antarctic continent for the first time.

"Thank you, Dr. Fontana. I think with your valuable experience, I will be able to successfully complete this self-challenge. Thank you! Tang Feng thanked Dr. Fontana very sincerely.

In fact, after deciding to go to Antarctica, Tang Feng once made up a lot of knowledge about Antarctic expeditions, including many cases of successful crossing of the pole or failure in the operation of crossing the pole, and these examples actually mentioned the things that Dr. Fontana just said.

Take the first point that Dr. Fontana just said, the Antarctic continent in the warm season is actually not safer than the Antarctic continent in the cold season, on the contrary, because of the change in the angle of sunlight, the Antarctic continent in the warm season is more unpredictable in climate, maybe the sky is still clear in the morning, but at noon, a strong snowstorm may fall directly on your head.

On the contrary, there is no such change in the Antarctic continent in the cold season, except that the Antarctic continent is colder and the storms are more intense, in fact, the climate changes are not as frequent as in the warm season.

There are no four seasons in Antarctica, only warm and cold seasons. But even in the warm season, the average temperature in the interior of the Antarctic continent will be below minus 20 degrees, and if you catch a snowstorm, the temperature will drop by 20 or 30 degrees. Therefore, the warm season of the Antarctic continent is the most terrifying, because you can't figure out the laws of climate change at all.

Tang Feng knew that Dr. Fontana was right, that is, in the event of a snowstorm, it was best to build an igloo. Through the Eskimo SnowRoom Effect. It can keep people alive in it for a long time.

The Eskimos live in the icy Arctic Circle all year round, and their houses are not made of wood and stone, but of snow or ice bricks.

The internal temperature of this kind of snow and ice is almost the same as that of ordinary houses, and the Eskimos even lit a fire in the snow room to keep warm, which did not cause the snow room to collapse. This is because the temperature in the lower part of the igloo is high. However, the temperature of the snow roof is still below freezing, so when the rising water vapor touches the roof or walls of the snow room, it will quickly condense and freeze, and then become part of the snow room. This is the SnowRoom Effect.

The SnowRoom is quite magical, and a few years ago in Sweden, something that could be called a miracle happened. Forty-four-year-old Peter. When Skelberg was driving his car home, the car broke down. Skelberg was thrown into the wilderness at more than 30 degrees below zero. But because it was very cold in that place, the snow fell so heavily that the whole car was buried. The result is an interior space similar to that of an igloo. And Peter. Sgelberg survived for more than two months in this small "car igloo" and was finally rescued.

Afterwards, according to the analysis, Peter. Sgelberg's legendary experience was actually saved by the Eskimo SnowRoom effect.

The interior of his car, which was completely buried by heavy snow, was actually an igloo, and the temperature inside was only minus a few degrees Celsius. And Peter. Skelberg happened to have very warm clothes and a sleeping bag, so he was able to rely on snow to stay alive. and not die from hypothermia.

If Tang Feng really encountered a snowstorm during the expedition, then he only needed to dig a snow hole diagonally down in situ and people would get into it, and then his life would definitely not be in danger in a short period of time.

As for the second point that Dr. Fontana said, to be honest, this thing is really a bit difficult to overcome. The reason why Ice Cap Crack is called "the most terrifying killer". The main reason is that it is so well hidden.

The vast Antarctic continent is full of ice caps up to a kilometer thick, and these ice caps often have cracks in the warm season, but most of these cracks are hidden under ice or snow. It is impossible to detect with the naked eye. If you encounter such a crevasse, and it happens that the ice at the top of the crack cannot bear your weight, then you will end up falling directly into a crack thousands of meters deep, which even God cannot save.

But if you have an ice radar detector, you can largely avoid this tragedy. The so-called ice radar detector is a type of radar that specifically detects the interior and deep structures of the ice sheet. This radar uses the different reflectivity of electromagnetic waves to the dielectric constant of the ice sheet to detect structures inside and deep within the ice sheet.

In the early days, ice radar detectors were stupid and stupid, and they needed to be carried by means of transportation such as snowmobiles, but with the development of technology, a variety of portable ice radar detectors have been developed, and a person can carry this kind of ice radar detector on his back to detect the inside of the ice sheet.

Now in the space of the star core, there is such a small portable ice radar detector.

So for this problem, Tang Feng is not very worried. After all, after penetrating deep into the interior of the Antarctic continent, the probability of ice cap cracks not being so high.

As for the third point that Dr. Fontana said, Tang Feng was even more unimpressed. Because although the third point mentioned by Dr. Fontana is extremely important, it is for ordinary people, and for a special person like Tang Feng who has a star core space, the third point is what Tang Feng is best at.

In the polar exploration, the mechanical equipment is indeed not as safe as the Alaskan Malamute, which is very clear to Tang Feng even if he is a rookie of polar exploration.

The famous British polar explorer, the second British Navy Captain in history to reach the pole Robert? Falken? Scott, is it because he doesn't believe in the way dog sledding adventures that he is better than his rival Roald? Amundsen arrived at the pole a month late, and Scott's expedition suffered heavy casualties. Even he himself was not able to return to the base from the pole in the end, and remained on this white continent forever.

In fact, the seeds of Scott's failure were planted by his own hands before he set off.

First of all, Scott was very superstitious about the superiority of human sledding, but he was prejudiced against the use of huskies, so the main means of transport he chose to climb the South Pole were Siberian ponies and 3 tracked tractors. The tractor had only been gone for a few days before the oil injection system broke down and had to be thrown into the snow as a pile of scrap metal. Because the Massibirian pony could not adapt to the harsh environment of the Antarctic Plateau and was physically exhausted, Scott and his team had to drag the heavy sled on foot on the rugged ice field, which consumed a lot of physical strength and affected the speed of the team.

Second, when they returned to the supply depot preset on the Ross Ice Shelf, they found that the kerosene in the oil drums had mysteriously run out. Later, it became known that solder becomes powdery at low temperatures, and kerosene loss is caused by solder denaturation.

Thirdly, bad weather continued to plague Scott's party, and what was supposed to be relatively good weather turned into a rare violent snowstorm that prevented Scott and his party from advancing, and finally, despite being only 17 kilometers away from the supply camp, it became an unattainable target for them.

The failure of Scott's expedition provided a great deal of experience for subsequent Antarctic explorers, which is the main reason why Dr. Fontana said those things.

However, for Tang Feng, what Scott encountered back then was nothing to Tang Feng at all. Now in Tang Feng's star core space, in addition to Sanxiao and the red-tailed python, there are forty-four adult Alaskan Malamutes, these forty-four Alaskan Malamutes were bought by Tang Feng on a whim when he was in Ushuaia, and now they have been living happily in the space.

Once Tang Feng encounters the same situation as Scott, then these forty-four cute dogs will be released from the space by Tang Feng and become Tang Feng's most powerful guarantee.

Of course, these forty-four Alaskan Malamutes are Tang Feng's last means of registration, as a person who always cherishes life and puts safety first in the first place, Tang Feng will naturally not just make this preparation.

In the star core space, in addition to these forty-four dogs, there is also a spare tracked snowmobile and two snowmobiles, as for fuel or something, it is a joke for Tang Feng. There is a whole amount of fuel tanker in the star core space, which is enough for Tang Feng to use vigorously.

It's really not good, there is still a small antelope light helicopter parked in the star core space, as long as there is no strong wind, Tang Feng can fly back with this helicopter. As for other heating materials and cold-proof measures, Tang Feng has them all prepared in the star core space.

And this time, Tang Feng's destination is only Vincennes Peak, which is located at the junction of West Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula, rather than a thousand-mile expedition to the pole.

There is still about 1,700 kilometers from the research station to Vincennes, which is a very long distance, but it does not go deep into the interior of Antarctica. Compared to the low temperature near the pole, even in the warm season, there are only minus forty or fifty degrees, and the temperature in this area of Vinson is much higher.

Therefore, the only danger for Tang Feng on this Antarctic expedition is the weather and those unpredictable ice cap cracks. But for Tang Feng, who is so well prepared, as long as Tang Feng pays a little more attention to this expedition, the possibility of danger is really very small.

The star core space is the most fundamental support for Tang Feng to dare to explore the Antarctic continent alone this time! (To be continued.) )
