ANTARCTICA
LAND OF ICE
Many mysteries and truths are disappeared in the Planets of our Universe. In our Earth some continents also mysterious till now. Especially, Antarctica which is mysterious and few people only visited and research Antarctica. What is actually happening in Antarctica? Let's see about it.
HISTORY OF ANTARCTICA:
Antarctica is found very recently. The first Human went to Antarctica in the year of 1920. Antarctica is found only a century ago. Before 1920's Antarctica was also a Theory, "A continent is present in the Southern Hemisphere of Earth". The name Antarctica was named as it is present in the South Pole. The region is present in the North Pole of Earth is called as ARCTIC. So, The region present exactly opposite to the South Pole is called ANTARCTIC. It is present exactly in the South Pole. So, If you walk on any direction in the Antarctica, You will move to the North direction. Scientists separates Antarctica as two parts. One is East Antarctica and another one is West Antarctica. Green-witch Meridian separates as East and West Antarctica. Most of the Ice Glaciers of Antarctica melts at the West Antarctica.
The average depth of the Ice Glacier in the Antarctica is 2000 feet. The deepest Ice Glacier is around 4000 feet. Ice is covered over 2000-4000 feet on the surface. If we melt these ice, we can get the solution of the deficiency of Water on Earth. Because, The Earth is covered with 75% of Water in that, only 3% is Fresh Water. 70% of Fresh Water is present in the Antarctic region. It is difficult to take the Ice in the Antarctica. In the upper surface It covered with ice. But, Inside the Ice, Many rivers and Ponds are also present in the Antarctica. In the surface of Antarctica there is also a Lake is present in the Liquid State. The name of the Lake is Deep Lake. But, We can't use the water in that lake. Because, It's salt content is greater than the Salt content in the Ocean Water. This salinity keeps the Water in Liquid State.
ORGANISMS ON ANTARCTICA:
The average temperature in the surface of Antarctica is -40°C. The coldest temperature recorded in the Antarctica is -90°C. One positive thing about this place is you don't need a Watch to know time. Because, This region has no Time Zone. There are only two seasons in the Antarctica which is Summer and Winter. In the Summer only Day is present and in the Winter only Night will happen. So you no need to have a watch. Even though Antarctica is covered with Ice, It is also considered as a Desert. Because, It has no Rain-Fall. The last Rain-Fall in Antarctica is around 2 Million Years ago. Antarctica is covered with 99% Ice and the left 1% is the Earth's surface. There is also no trees and No Plants present there. Antarctica has many Mountain ranges and active Volcanos.
Antarctica is hotter Sahara Desert. It is because, The Ice crystals reflects more heat. In that, Mt. Erebus is the Largest of all. Another Active Volcano is present in the Deception Island. If both the Volcanos erupt, The 20% Ice of Antarctica will Vapor. This leads to the raise in the height of the Ocean to 16 feet. The animal which live in the most in Antarctica is Penguins. It is a Bird. It can't fly. SCALE WORM, a type of worm also present in Antarctica. Antarctica is also considered as a Extraterrestrial Planet. Nearly 1000-4000 researches only stays there. Except researches, No one can able to stay there. Antarctica is considered as a LAND OF PEACE. No country can own this land. There are 11 people Born on Antarctica.
THE CONCLUSION:
Scientists also found a Blood-River flows in Antarctica. But, That is Blood color like river. It contains more Iron Oxides. It comes from the Fresh Water that is present 1000 ft. below. If we do not protect this world, Earth will be present. But, we'll not present to live on Earth.
