The 使節団 to Earth's watery graveyard: British explorer will 試みる／企てる to reach Point Nemo - a remote area 2,000 miles north of Antarctica that is 'unseen by man'

While most travellers hope to reach 古代の 場所／位置s or historic 目印s, one British explorer is trying to get as far away from them as possible.??

Chris Brown hopes to reach Point Nemo - the most remote place on Earth and the graveyard for hundreds of pieces of space 破片.

In the centre of the 太平洋の Ocean, Point Nemo is so far from any land that the nearest humans are on the International Space 駅／配置する?254 miles (408km) above.

If successful, the 62-year-old entrepreneur from Harrogate will become the first Briton to 完全にする a 明確な／細部 探検隊／遠征隊 to the point.

'I'm going to try and get in the water if it's at all possible...I also 推定する／予想する I'll open a 瓶／封じ込める of bubbly when I get there,' he said.

Mr Brown and his son Mika, 32, 始める，決める out on board the 借り切る／憲章d 探検隊／遠征隊 ヨット,?Hanse Explorer, from Puerto Montt, Chile on March 12.

The pair hope to be able to reach Point Nemo by March 20 or 21 if all goes によれば 計画（する）.?

While Mr Brown says he had considered using a racing ヨット to get to the point as 急速な／放蕩な as possible, he 最終的に 選ぶd for the safer 選択 of a more 強健な ship.??

The 高級な ヨット usually takes tourist 探検隊／遠征隊s to Antarctica and was scheduled to pass 公正に／かなり 近づく Point Nemo.

Mr Brown said that 'after a bit of 交渉, the owners agreed to our slight detour.'

Point Nemo is the furthest ocean point from land. The nearest landmass is Ducie Island, which is more than 1,600 miles to the North?

The 乗組員's 目的地 is the いわゆる 大洋の 政治家 of Inaccessibility, meaning that it is the furthest point from land.?

From Point Nemo, the nearest land is Ducie Island, part of the Pitcairn Islands, which is 1,670 miles (2,688km) away.

Besides a few small islands, the nearest large 住むd areas are Wellington, New Zealand and Concepci?n, Chile both of which are over 2,500 miles (4,000km) away.?

This area of the world is so remote that it has become the most popular place for international space 機関s to 減少（する） 落ちるing space 破片.

Since 1971, more than 260 pieces of space 破片 have 設立する their final 残り／休憩（する）ing place in the waters around Point Nemo, 含むing the ロシアの Mir Space 駅／配置する.?

Within the next １０年間, this remote stretch of the 太平洋の will also be where the International Space 駅／配置する will be brought 負かす／撃墜する.?

When the ISS lands at Point Nemo, it will 現実に be seven times さらに先に from any human 解決／入植地 than it is in 軌道.?

The point has been known since 1992 when a 調査する engineer calculated the furthest point to land, taking Earth's ellipsoid 形態／調整 into account.

Since its 発見, several ships h ave approached the point, 含むing Ocean Race competitors travelling between Auckland, New Zealand and Itaja?, Brazil.

Point Nemo's remote 場所 has made it the ideal place for space 機関s to bring space 破片 out of 軌道 since the chances of hitting anyone are so incredibly low?

However, 海上の 専門家s have 明言する／公表するd 'it is possible that no human has ever passed through the 明確な／細部 調整するs'.?

Nonetheless, Mr Brown does not seem daunted by the extreme remoteness of the 場所.??

最終的に, he hopes to become the first person to reach all eight of Earth's 大陸の 政治家s of Inaccessibility.?

These are the points on each continent furthest away from any ocean, making them some of the most remote places on Earth.

Mr Brown has already reached five of the eight, reaching 政治家s on Antarctica, Oceania,?Africa, North America and South America.

Mr Brown and his son Mika, 30, are 推定する／予想するd to reach the point by March 21 having 始める，決める out from Chile last Tuesday?

'I don't consider this to be as dangerous as my 探検隊／遠征隊s to Africa or Antarctica,' he said.?

'The obvious danger is that you're miles from anywhere on the sea, and you're going to be a long way from any of the shipping 小道／航路s so if there was a problem with the boat, help would be a long time coming.'

During the 探検隊／遠征隊 to the 南極の 政治家 of Inaccessibility, Mr Brown and his son became 簡潔に 立ち往生させるd in -18°F (-28°C) 気温s after their 計画（する） broke 負かす／撃墜する.?

But while Mr Brown might be adventurous, he also seems to have a keen sense of danger.

Last year he sprung to the attention of the マスコミ after it was 明らかにする／漏らすd that he turned 負かす／撃墜する a 位置／汚点／見つけ出す on the ill-運命／宿命d 潜水艦 探検隊／遠征隊 to the Titanic.

Mr Brown said that he had even paid a deposit for a seat 船内に the OceanGate 大型船.

However, he pulled out of the trip after discovering that the 潜水艦 would be 操縦するd with game-console 監査役s 説 that it looked 'shoddy'.?

While Point Nemo has been known since the 90s, 海上の 専門家s say that it is possible no one has ever sailed through the exact 調整するs before

Mr Brown's ultimate goal is to reach all eight of the 大陸の 政治家s of Inaccessibility, of which Point Nemo is one

Mr Brown 計画（する）s to gather water 見本s from Point Nemo to 実験（する） for the 濃度／密度 of microplastics on the way to the world's most remote oceans.

In 新規加入 to 存在 a ダンピング ground for space rubbish, Point Nemo is also within a コンビナート／複合体 網状組織 of circular 現在のs which 罠（にかける） large 量s of waste.

The South 太平洋の Gyre in which Point Nemo sits is a confluence of The 南極の Circumpola r 現在の, the Humboldt 現在の and the West 勝利，勝つd Drift.

As a result, this 地域 of the 太平洋の has become a sort-of 大洋の garbage patch.

Perhaps luckily, this area is also one of the least biologically active 地域s of the world's oceans.

In the 4,000m 深い waters, there is so bereft of nutrients that almost no life can 存在する.

Scientists have only discovered bacteria and tiny crabs living at the sea vents on the ocean 床に打ち倒す 近づく the point.
