China's plan to climb Mount Everest in 2020 has been prepared for a long time, but it is not an easy task to climb Mount Everest. Mount Qomolangma is located at the junction of China and Nepal, higher than the Himalayas. The average elevation of the Himalayas is 6,500 meters, and it reaches Mount Everest, with an altitude of 8,800 meters, reaching the highest land in the world.
The Himalayas lie between the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate. Due to the mutual extrusion of the two continental plates, the Himalayas stretching for thousands of kilometers have gradually formed. Due to special geographical and tectonic activities, earthquakes, volcanoes, geothermal and other geological activities often occur in this area. The last scientific measurement of the height of Mount Everest was 15 years ago. After years of geological movement, whether the height of Mount Everest is increasing or decreasing can only be concluded by standing on it and measuring it yourself.
The burden of climbing Mount Everest naturally falls on the shoulders of the China mountaineering team. However, climbing Mount Everest is not as simple as imagined. Due to the altitude and geographical location, Mount Everest and its affiliated peaks, as the natural barrier of warm and humid air flow northward in India, will gradually condense into snowfall and slope wind during the process of warm and humid air flow climbing and cooling with the ground. At the same time, cold air from northern Siberia will also form a violent slope wind after passing through Mount Everest. Therefore, the weather on Mount Everest is always cloudy and sunny, and there are few sunny days. In strong winds and heavy snow, it is impossible for climbers to reach the top of Mount Everest. Only when the weather on Mount Everest clears up can they reach the summit.
After a long period of preparation, on February 8, 65438, Mount Everest finally appeared a rare sunny and windy weather, which is undoubtedly an excellent news for the China mountaineering team. China climbers seized the opportunity to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma and re-measured the height of Mount Qomolangma. Because of this, June 8th+February 8th, 65438 is a lucky day for China mountaineering team.
