If you want to stay away from humans, this is where you need to be
What do you think is the most separate point for humans? Antarctica? Maybe, but there is a more unexpected place.
Do you sometimes want to forget all? When everyday life becomes too stressful, do you want to go far away from the world? There are a few options for you, don't be surprised - Antarctica for example.
However, if you have the ability to survive on the sea, nowhere is more suitable for you than the farthest point on Earth, or " Point Nemo," or Nemo point.
Location of extreme inaccessibility.
The most recent human being is . astronaut
Nemo point - this name means "No one" in Latin, especially suitable for this deserted place.
The point of Nemo is so far away from the mainland, the people who appear most often are astronauts in space. The International Space Station (ISS) has an orbit of up to 416 km from Earth, while the nearest inhabited land on Earth is 2,700 km away - Pitcairn Island - an English island.
This place does not have an airport, so transportation is only possible by train. And with the fastest speed ship now, it takes 15 days and 10 hours and 37 minutes to move here.
"Space cemetery" of the world
In fact, the Nemo point and the surrounding area are quite famous for space agencies.
Specifically, the space agencies of Russia, Europe and Japan have long used this place as a "landfill" , simply because this place is very far from the residential area and rarely has boats and ships pass by. There are more than a hundred deactivated spacecraft landing in this "cemetery" area, from satellites and cargo ships to even the space station that has stopped working Mir.
This is also the resting place of the Mir space station.
Calling it softly, it's all calculated to . free fall down this area.
So . does the place have life?
In 1997, oceanographers recorded a mysterious sound under 2000km east of the Nemo point. This finding both makes others excited and fearful. The even bigger sound "bloop" than the sound of a blue whale - led to a suspicion, whether it was released by some sea monster?
However, the "Bloop" sound was confirmed that it was created by an iceberg. When a large iceberg cracked and broke, it produced a kind of low-frequency, but very loud sound. The recordings of avalanche also yielded similar results to the "Bloop" sound.
If it's not a monster, is there anything that can live there?
So if it's not a monster, then is there anything that can live there? According to the oceanographer Steven D'hondt of Rhodes Island University, there are hardly any species.
Yet, a study published in 2013 confirmed that there was a "landfill at sea" appearing here. The most junk spot is in the center, 1550km northeast of the Nemo Point.
As expected, even " Extreme inaccessibility " did not escape human traces.
