It was not only the families of the Western Military Region Commander and the Central and Southern Military Region Commander who would eventually move to live along the equator. Even the family of the Northern Military Region Commander would do so.
Many people were now discussing the differences between shelters officially established by the Federal Government, private shelters, and shelters along the equator.
As the First Phase Project of some shelters was completed, they had begun attempting to enter the pressure-testing stage. Some television stations had even set aside entire channels to introduce the lives of people inside shelters undergoing pressure tests.
If they were the same, why go live along the equator instead of staying in the Federation? In reality, there were still many differences. The most crucial one was the temperature gap.
According to the Deputy Station Director, during the hottest part of summer, temperatures along the equator would be around minus twenty degrees, while temperatures elsewhere would be around minus seventy or eighty degrees.
At first glance, that did not sound particularly cold. The northern parts of the Federation reached temperatures below minus thirty degrees in winter, yet the people living there could still survive and work, could they not?
Many people did not consider this a problem, but they had overlooked the most crucial point--
This was the temperature during the hottest part of summer!
Once winter arrived, temperatures along the equator might drop to minus fifty or sixty degrees, or even minus sixty or seventy, while temperatures in the Federation would generally fall below minus one hundred degrees.
A temperature difference of several dozen degrees imposed much stricter demands on the living environment. The pressure placed on heating systems at minus fifty or sixty, or minus sixty or seventy degrees, was far less than the
