Church's Diary 12

Who has experienced two consecutive days? We just experienced it. That's right, for two consecutive days, 24 hours are daytime. The sun just set off from one side of the sea, and then rose from the other side.

In the early morning, the GPS navigation system and communication equipment all failed, and we could not get any contact with the ground or space. This means that we are lost at sea, without navigation, unable to locate, do not know the future weather, do not know where the nearest island is, in such a foggy day, it is simply difficult to move.

We are like a piece of duckweed, floating on the endless Pacific Ocean.

After daybreak, Anderson told me that the fog outside was clearing. I went out and took a look. The sea was still white, but the fog did look a little lighter than yesterday.

During the day, the sea was windy, the fog became more and more obvious, and the flag on the flagpole was fluttering in the wind. Everyone came to the deck, breathing the slightly salty air, watching the dense fog dissipate little by little, and the sea gradually opened up. Now, whether there are submarine relics and whether scientific research tasks can be completed has become relatively unimportant. People only look forward to the moment of seeing the sun again.

As long as the fog clears, there will be no other bad weather on the sea. Even without GPS, we can use the compass and chart to drive the Discovery to the Tubuai Islands hundreds of nautical miles to the north. When we get ashore, we will take a closer look at what went wrong, or ask for help from New Zealand and the U.S. Navy. With the energy of Mr. Robbins, we should be able to request the naval ship to assist in the escort. If I knew that such a strange situation would happen at sea, I think Robbins would have done that a long time ago.

About three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the first ray of sunlight penetrating the mist hit the deck, and we all cheered. Then, the sun was like an arrow, shooting the mist like a demon without a trace. At that time, the sun was like a huge red fireball, which was setting towards the sea level to the west, and the gorgeous sunset glowed the sea and the sky red.

Perhaps it was because I hadn't seen the sun for a long time, this sunset looked particularly spectacular, and even the countless sunrises and sunsets I have seen on the sea in my lifetime have not shocked me as much as I am today.

I saw the solemn and fascinating expressions on the faces of other people, which seemed to have the same feeling as me. Only Anderson took advantage of the fog to clear, already took his fishing rod, leisurely fishing for fish, not caring about the beauty of the distance.

I thought it would be night after sunset. I didn’t even need to think about this common sense. I was already thinking about the next sailing direction, or I should discuss with Mr. Robbins, whether to wait in place for communication to resume, or to go north. Tubuai Islands, or simply return west to New Zealand.

At this moment, someone suddenly yelled, sunrise!

I followed his voice and looked over, and another shocking scene appeared. I will never forget everything I saw today in my life. Not only me, but everyone on the ship could not forget this scene, even someone was kneeling on the ground. He kept making a cross on his chest and prayed to God. Even Anderson threw away the fishing rod and stood up straight, facing east, dumbfounded.

In the east at this time, the small half-round red sun was rising from the sea level, and the bright rays of the sun began to dye the sky and sea over there. However, when I looked back, most of the red sun to the west remained at sea.

The sunrise in the east and the sunset in the west happened almost at the same time. I kept looking from both sides, and when I distinguished it carefully, I was even more shocked, because I found that as much as the sun in the west sets, the sun in the east rises as much as possible. My instinct tells me that the two suns are actually the same, and there must be something wrong with the earth, or something wrong with my eyes.

When the sunset on the west has completely fallen, the rising sun on the east has also completely exposed to the sea. Its flushed cheeks began to become dazzling, and then gave out a golden light, illuminating everything in the world, and a new day began.

We all stood quietly on the deck like stone statues on Easter Island, staring at the sky blankly, unable to move for a long time. At some point, the deck became scorching hot, my forehead was sweating, and my back felt slightly damp. I calmed down for a while, and then took off my thick coat.

My movements and the sound I made probably alarmed the others, and they all recovered and began to take off their clothes. Then, we went back to the cabin and started discussing what happened. During the discussion, the scientists and seafarers naturally divided into two groups, each talking about its own. Most of the seafarers talk about miracles, gods and sea gods, while scientists are more seeking scientific explanations for this phenomenon. At this time, everyone discovered that such a miracle had happened, and no one thought of using a video camera or mobile phone to take a picture of the scene.

As usual, Anderson and I were invited to the ranks of scientists, but we could not express any opinions. Even Anderson, who was always open-minded, closed his mouth honestly at this moment.

Scientists have made all kinds of speculations, but it is difficult to convince everyone.

Mrs. Larry said, could it be the function of the mirror pyramid? The sun sets from the west and rises from the east at the same time, which looks like a mirror image. Or we can think of it this way. When we see the sunset at 150° West longitude and 30° South latitude, can we just see the sunrise in the Sahara Desert on the other side of the earth? In other words, there was a connection between the two pyramids that are mirror images of each other just now or earlier. The strange fog may be caused by this, so we can see the two pyramids at the same time. To the sight. Stephen, what do you say?

Stephen Robbins said, I am not studying space physics, so let's listen to Paldick's opinion in this regard.

Paldick is a space physicist who is famous for studying parallel universes, but he is not good at words and stammers when he speaks. So he only said one thing, Mrs. Larry made sense ~lightnovelpub.net~ This is probably a phenomenon of space folding.

At this time, Anderson suddenly said loudly, ladies and gentlemen, don't you feel hot?

His voice is always loud and he doesn't have a gentlemanly manner at all. But this is also excusable, most of the sailors at sea have practiced a loud voice.

I realized at this time that it was a bit too hot. Although I took off my coat just now, I was still sweating. I was alert to something, but I couldn't tell.

Robbins frowned and said that the temperature was over 25 degrees Celsius and the sun was too strong, not at all like the winter sun. If we are still in the original position and the original time, then there must be something wrong with the earth's rotation or magnetic field...

I heard something behind him, but he didn't say any more. Perhaps as Mrs. Larry said, scientists never make baseless guesses.

I'm not a scientist, so I can guess randomly, in that heavy fog, we probably passed through a certain space, and came to the Pacific Ocean in the northern hemisphere, maybe near Hawaii, or after a certain period of time, we came to the South Pacific in the future. Or some summer in the past. And the time of crossing is probably the moment of sunset and sunrise.
