Deep Space Planet Leader

Faced with this scholar’s ​​doubts, Zhang Yuan did not rush, and turned up another paper below, explaining the climatic environment on the back of the planet from the perspective of ocean currents.

He drew a picture of the ocean currents of the planet with chalk on the blackboard: "If you stand in the atmosphere above the North Pole and look down on the entire planet, you can find that the ocean currents of the entire planet rotate counterclockwise. Everyone. You should know that our Boulder City warm current flows from the west to the east. That is, from warm places to cold places."

"Affected by this warm current, the temperature here is , It’s warmer than the rest of the region."

planet Due to uneven heating, energy will spontaneously transfer from the hot area to the cold area. This is the law of thermodynamics.

This planet is locked by the tide by the star, and the rotation period is equal to the orbit period, not without rotation. With such a weak rotation, the deflection force generated by the earth's rotation causes the general trend of ocean currents and air currents to be counterclockwise.

"What will this cause?"

Zhang Yuan drew a circle on the blackboard.

"At the other end of the planet, the ocean current flows from the east to the west. That is, from the cold zone to the warm zone."

"If the cold current meets the land, it will be large Lower the temperature of this piece of land."

"So, the climate on the back of the planet, theoretically, will be colder than this side. The same longitude, the same latitude, and the temperature of the light zone are expected It will be about ten degrees lower than this end, that is, the original 40 degrees Celsius, and become 30 degrees Celsius."

"If we find continent in the light zone?"

"There is light, continent, and the climate is right. It will become a new paradise for mankind!"

"As long as it exists, and we can...discover it!"

Ambition The vigorous third exploration began again.

This time, even though it is justified and well-founded, it still frightened many people. Some people began to mock Zhang Yuan's whimsical again. Even many sailors in the family showed hesitation and fear. They were reluctant to participate in such activities.

Explore the world!

A feat that has never been seen in the world!

The global exploration of this World is far more difficult than Earth. Because Earth has a large continent, there are many points where you can go ashore for replenishment, but this World does not. The entire world's islands are distributed, equivalent to only a piece of Southeast Asian archipelago. There are no Asian-European continents, South America, North America, Australia, and Antarctica!

If you stay away from land for a long time, let alone the difficulty of supplying materials, everyone will feel a serious panic in their hearts over time.

Zhang Yuan also knows that this may be the last expedition in his life. He is in his 40s and his body is beginning to go downhill.

This may also be the last chance for the entire world.

For the sailors who were not willing to join the expedition within the family, he did not force him. In the entire Boulder City, there are youngsters who want to make a fortune and want to gain fame.

However, no one knows whether the expedition this time is a long march to victory or a road to death.

"If this time fails, there will be nowhere to explore. Obediently and honestly stay at home for the elderly, haha!" Zhang Yuan turned his head and said with a smile to his younger sister Anna.

Yes, if it fails, this World can only do so.

People have no way to fight the entire world. Obediently and honestly calm down, develop some science and develop productivity, it is also good.

Of course, under the current environment, no matter how you develop, Zhang Yuan believes that an impossible breakthrough in the upper bound will only lead to chronic death... But it is better than no development.

"Goodbye to uncle!"

Younger sister Anna is already a noble lady, mother of three children. : "You will also be great navigators in the future."

Although she still can't understand her big brother's choice, she can only support it in the end.

"Goodbye!" All relatives and friends were seeing off on the shore.

Zhang Yuan embarked on the new ship "Victory"-with technological innovation, a faster steam-powered, schooner.

There are a total of 8 similar ships in the entire fleet. Zhang Yuan once again lost all the fortune he had earned over the years, and started his third expedition amidst people's discussion, blessing, admiration, ridicule, and anticipation.

A historian wrote in his book: "Earl Hoffman, even if no new continent is found, even if the third voyage still fails, it is enough to be remembered by history... …"

"World, we need a continent, a continent full of light!"

"Let us discover it. In our world, many suffering people are still hungry. With their stomachs, they are homeless and have no clothes to wear. Let us discover it..."

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and gave orders: "Yang Fan, set sail!"

The entire global expedition will go through the Arctic route to the other end of the planet. Five ships carry 3,000 people. If it goes well, it will take 300 days. If it doesn’t go well, it may take 400 or even 500 days.

It must be a difficult journey.

A young sailor took the rope with both hands, raised the sail, and watched the lights of Boulder City. He suddenly felt unwilling.

He asked the surrounding chief mate: "Rock, if we really find the new continent on the back of the planet, what will happen? Will we get rich?"

"smelly brat , I’ve been here so early and weird!" The first officer said with a smile, grinning: "Earl Lord doesn’t even have such a certainty. But... Do you know what a new continent means to us?"

"What?"

He opened his hands as if embracing the future: "We will become the heroes of Boulder City! We will be remembered by history! Our name is a thousand Years later, it can still be mentioned by humans."

"Whether it is wealth or honor, we choose, if you want, you can even get a piece of Fiefdom in the new continent and become the owner of the manor! Of course, the premise is that we can survive and see the sun of the new continent...if there is a sun!"

"The sun, how beautiful. I don’t know, have you ever seen the sun in the distance? "

"What if there is no new continent?" the young sailor asked again.

"Is there no new continent..." He frowned, and sighed: "In fact, it's nothing, it's equivalent to a long-distance voyage... The Lord Earl will naturally send it to You pay, one will not be less."

"However, there is no new continent..."

He turned his head and looked at a bright room on the upper deck, "Earl Adults may be going bankrupt again. I really can’t imagine that there will be other people in the world who are willing to explore this dark and huge world."

"What a hope, there will be something new Continent..."

When I think of the long-term future sea life, everyone loses interest in talking.

Everyone has a trace of confusion, a trace of yearning, and...a trace of anxiety about the future.

The "Victory" uttered a whining sound and left Boulder City with a slight weight. Everyone doesn't know what their future looks like. The priest on the ship started a very traditional prayer ceremony.

"May we not regret our choice today."
