The origin of the name Death Valley in the United States is because in 1949, a gold mining team of thousands of people in the United States passed through this valley. At that time, a large number of people died, and in the end only a few people were able to escape. Before they left, they said: "goodbye death valley", which translated into Chinese is "goodbye death valley ", so this The name was called.
Since then, many explorers wanted to explore the secrets, but most of them were buried here, and those who survived did not find the secrets.
This place is located in the mountains adjacent to California and Nevada. The temperature is extremely high, so it is also known as one of the most unsuitable places for human habitation on earth. How hot can
be?
Let's put it this way, you can basically experience what it feels like to enter the oven when you come here.
This place can get as hot as 130 degrees Fahrenheit, or 54.4 degrees Celsius, as warm as the inside of a steak, and you can fry an egg without a gas stove. The reason why
has such a high temperature is inseparable from its own natural conditions.
It is 86 meters below sea level and is surrounded by mountains, so water vapor from the Pacific Ocean cannot reach it at all. The sultry air is directly trapped here, which directly results in high temperatures and low rainfall.
For almost five months of the year, the average temperature is around 48 degrees, and the surface temperature can even reach around 80 degrees.
Although Death Valley in the United States is not suitable for human habitation, it is not all bones. There are still about 500 people living here for a long time.
If you join them, you will experience a completely different life than you do now.
The most important thing you need to adapt to is definitely the high temperature here, but this may take some effort.
Our normal body temperature is around 36.5 degrees. Once it reaches 41.7 degrees, this vicious high temperature may cause internal organ failure or even death.
However, the following extreme weather may cause your body temperature to reach this state, so you must be vigilant at all times.
Usually four to five thirty every afternoon is the hottest time of the day, so try not to appear outdoors when the temperature is high.
If you must go out, sunscreen is essential. In addition, you must wrap yourself tightly, otherwise you are likely to be sunburned..
Also, be sure to wear sunglasses. In addition to preventing damage from ultraviolet rays, this is a basin covered with salt. A large amount of salt will be very dazzling in the sun.
In addition to the high temperatures, you also have to adapt to various inconveniences caused by the remote location.
The nearest shopping mall is an hour's drive away, the nearest city is two hours away, and even if you want to go out for a meal, you can't find a restaurant.
If you are used to a life of ordering takeout, you may feel like crying here.
Of course, living here is not without some benefits, but don’t forget, this is a national park.
You can see the beautiful scenery of colorful hills, which are formed by the oxidation of metals naturally deposited in the mountains, and hear the crisp crackling sound of billions of salt grains after being exposed to sunlight.
Additionally, you may see walking stones and hear the devil's cries.
What is going on?
Don’t you think it’s a bit too fussy? Isn’t the movement of the stone normal? However, it should be noted that this movement is not caused by someone moving from here to there, but by the stone moving by itself.
This is a bit strange.
The stones here not only walk, but also leave traces of movement. Many explorers came here to study this strange phenomenon, but they have never come to a conclusion, and no one has seen how it moves.
This has led many people to believe that Death Valley may possess some mysterious power.
In addition to the moving stones, there will also be cries of the devil, like the roar of monsters. Scientists speculate that this may be caused by the howling wind in the valley. But this is just speculation after all.
These strange phenomena often make people associate Death Valley with the restricted area 51 surrounding it.
This 51 area is a place where people say that UFOs can often be seen. Some people even say that there is a green room here, which is specially used to freeze the bodies of aliens.
But because the US military has designated this place as a restricted area and is always on alert, the truth is unknown.
However, the editor feels that these phenomena may be just some natural landscapes, but there is no scientific answer yet. Just like the Kunlun Mountains’ gate to hell, people who enter always die mysteriously. Later, after research, we found out It is known that thunderstorms often occur in the local area due to the magnetic field, so moving people and animals are easily struck by lightning. This is how the mystery of Hell's Gate was unveiled.
And the secrets of Death Valley just haven't been discovered yet.
