Chapter 59: The Geocentric Axis

After leaving the bay, Heungwoo and Mia walked along the seashore back to the observation post. As the two walked, they checked where there were more fish.

But not to mention the schools of fish, there are very few even fish. Soon they saw that the inflatable boat that had been placed on the coast before.

At this moment, suddenly Mia limped and sank into the ice field with her right foot. Xingyu immediately hugged Miya and pulled back, trying to pull Miya up.

At this time, Mia screamed in a panic: "Something inside bites me!" Xingyu hugged Mia in fright and pulled it violently, and Miya herself supported the ground with one foot and pulled up her right foot that was stuck in the hole.

I saw a seal biting under Mia's calf. After the seal is pulled out of the ground from its burrow, it loosens its mouth and flees to the sea.

Seeing that the seal wanted to escape, Heung-woo immediately pulled out his pistol. When Xingyu pulled the trigger and was about to shoot, he heard Mia shouting, "Don't shoot, this seal is pregnant." When Xingyu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the seal quickly burrowed into the sea and fled. Xingyu turned his head to look at Miya in confusion and asked, "In such a short time, you can see that the seal is pregnant?" Mia hurriedly explained: "No! Seals rarely come ashore. Only when pregnant do female seals come ashore to burrow and hide in their burrows to give birth. "The mother seal saw something intruding on her territory, so she attacked, biting Mia's foot.

At this time, Xingyu saw Miya standing on one foot in pain, snuggling up to him. Heungwoo hurriedly helped Miya sit down, and then hurriedly checked Mia's feet.

Luckily, the ski boots were thick enough not to be bitten by seals. And Mia's calf is not broken, but the muscle is strained.

Heungwoo asked Miya to continue to sit and rest, and went to pull the inflatable boat over himself. After the two of them rested for a while, Heungwoo knew that Mia could not continue walking, and it was impossible to pull the inflatable boat back to the observation station.

So Xingyu dragged the inflatable boat into the sea, and then carried Miya onto the inflatable boat. Xingyu carefully paid attention to the ice floes on the sea and rowed forward in the inflatable boat.

When the sun came to night, Xingyu dragged the inflatable boat ashore with Mia. The two slept in an inflatable boat for the night.

In his sleep, Heung-woo dreamed of a volcanic eruption and the splitting of Antarctica. Then the Earth's central axis shifts, and the Earth rotates rapidly, causing huge waves.

The waves rushed at them in an instant. Heung-woo is awakened by his own nightmare, and at the same time wakes up Mia. After listening to Xingyu's dream, Miya asked suspiciously: "I think about it every day, and I dream about it at night." It's normal for you to dream of a volcanic eruption. But what is the geocentric axis? When Xingyu heard Miya say the first half of the sentence, he couldn't help but think, and murmured to himself: "Thinking about it during the day, dreaming about it at night?" Could it really happen? Seeing that Xingyu was in a daze, Miya didn't pay attention to what she was saying, and complained dissatisfiedly: "Hey! What about you? Xingyu saw Miya's angry appearance, and he felt cute.

Seeing Xingyu staring at her, Miya glanced at Xingyu and shouted, "Say it quickly!" What is geocentric alignment. Xingyu saw that Miya was about to go crazy, and quickly replied: "Scientists put the north and south poles of the earth between the north and south poles, in front of an axis, and the earth rotates around this axis, and this axis is the geocentric axis. And the poles become pivot points because the poles are the two heaviest points on the earth. But if the ice melts at one of the poles, one of the pivot points will move away from Asia, the heaviest continent. Because of the displacement of the geocentric axis, the earth will also move greatly, causing a global tsunami. Eventually, glaciers at both poles melted, and global water levels rose, inundating much of the landmass. The Great Shift of the Earth caused the poles to move to the equatorial line, with Asia and the Americas becoming the new two axes, Asia becoming the South Pole and the Americas becoming the North Pole. By that time, the planet's habitable tropics and temperate zones will be all oceans. Mia looked at Xingyu with a frightened look on her face, and continued to ask, "You mean that this volcano will erupt and cause the end of the world?" Xingyu was stunned for a moment, knowing what Miya meant by confusing him.

Xingyu glanced at Mia and said, "It's my dream that this volcanic eruption caused the end of the world. Actually, it can't be. This volcano is only a tiny fraction of the whole of Antarctica. How is it possible to change the balance of the planet. But if the volcano erupts, we're in real danger. On the way back in the inflatable boat, the two continued to discuss how to get out of here.

They discussed the possibility of pushing the observatory into the sea as a drifting boat. The observatory is well-equipped, sturdy in appearance, and has greenhouses, which are perfect for them to drift on the sea.

The question, however, is whether the observatory can float on the sea. Xingyu felt that it was impossible, if the observation post could float, then when it was evacuated, it would be pulled away, and it was impossible to stay where it was.

But Heungwoo still wanted to try, so he decided to return to the observatory and search for the observation station's instructions and structural diagrams.

When they returned to the observatory that day, they began to search for the instructions and structural drawings of the observatory. But I couldn't find the whole studio.

Mia, who was expecting to use the observation station as a drifting boat, said anxiously: "When the personnel of the observation station are withdrawn, won't they take the instructions with them?" Xingyu replied speechlessly: "The observation station has given up, why do you still take the manual!" The instructions and structural drawings are definitely still here. I just don't know where to collect it. In the end, they found the instructions and structural drawings in the stationmaster's bedroom.

After Xingyu carefully studied the structural drawing, he found that the exterior wall interfaces had been waterproofed. And Mia, who was reading the manual, also saw that the manual said that the observation station could float on the surface of the water in case of emergency.

However, it is noted that this is discouraged. Heungwoo felt strange that the observatory could float. Why, when evacuating, the observation post is abandoned.

Xingyu felt that there must be a reason, and studied the structure diagram carefully. Finally, I finally found out what the problem was.

In the structural diagram, the entrance and exit of the observation station are sealed doors. But they have been in and out so many times, and it is clear that the door at the entrance and exit is just an ordinary door, and at most it can only protect against wind and rain.

There are discrepancies in the design of the observatory and the materials used in practice. So when the exterior wall is constructed, whether there are corners cut is also a question mark.

And Xingyu also understood why the manual stated that the observation station was not encouraged to float on the water. When the observatory floats on the water, the waterline is in the middle of the entrance and exit doors.

Even if the entrance is sealed, the observation post cannot be opened while it is floating on the water. Otherwise, water from outside will rush into the observation post.

The observation post is always a surface building, and the most important thing is to facilitate access. Although Xingyu can seal the entrance and exit, it is changed to enter and exit from the top.

But there are too many uncertainties at the Observatory. Eventually, they gave up on the idea of using the observatory as a drifting ship.

I have to think of another way.
