The last place I am going is the Akademik Fedorov Canyon. It is in Antarctica. Antarctica has no cities, permanent residents, government, or capital.There are no countries on Antarctica and no permanent population. Many countries have scientific research stations on Antarctica with seasonal manning, a few Antarctic stations have all year round manning. The bodies of water that border Antarctica is The Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans
. The GPS coordinates are 72 degrees South and 32 degrees north.
Antarctica has six months of daylight and six months of darkness. The earth revolves around the sun and tilts on it's axis. During the winter, Antarctica is tilted away from the sun, causing it to be dark. For the half of the year that is summer, Antarctica is facing the sun and getting more of its direct rays.The lowest temperature ever recorded in Antarctica was -129ºF. The warmest temperature ever recorded in Antarctica was 59ºF. The average summer temperature is 20ºF. The average winter temperature is -30ºF.The highest wind speed ever in Antarctica was when the wind was moving at five meters per second. The wind is an important factor in making Antarctica cold. The wind can lower the temperatures of Antarctica by at least ten degrees.The Antarctic is colder than the North Pole because it warms up faster and it cools down faster. Antarctica gets warmer faster than the Arctic because the Ocean water carries heat from the equator to the poles. The land of Antarctica heats up faster than the waters of the Arctic. The Akademik Fedorov Canyon looks like giant blocks of ice covered in snow and it looks like water runs through it. The history of this canyon is that it has been around for millions of years. This location is important to me because my best friend went their and I want to see it by myself. This canyon is 9,206.26 miles away for the Wu gorge in China. I am going to take a plain to this place. It costed all together alot of money. I fell good that I went all around the world. I learned that know matter were you are their is always something beautiful. My family is so happy that I went all around the worlg in one time with out going home.
