Year of Chao Xing·the Truth About the World

About This Novel
Is the earth not the cradle of eternity, but a cage of periodic destruction? In 1965, the Eye of the Sahara was discovered from space, a perfect concentric circle with a diameter of 48 kilometers - it is like an eye staring into the universe, and also like the blueprint of Plato's Atlantis. In 1985, Soviet astronaut Janibekov discovered that a nut in space would periodically flip over - would the Earth be like that nut? In 2033, humans landed on Mars and discovered granite layers that should not have existed - Mars had once had life and even civilization. In 2044, hibernation technology is mature. Some people choose to sleep into the future, while others stay on earth to wait for the end. In 2440, the next global flood will come as scheduled - and this time, the earth will become as desolate as Mars. ... This is a hard-core science fiction novel that spans time and space and asks about the truth about the world. Humans will land on Mars in 2033. Behind this historic feat, there are unknown geological mysteries. The hidden archives of Oxford University, ancient manuscripts from the Renaissance, and the subversive theory of crustal displacement reveal the shocking secrets of the reincarnation of civilization layer by layer. From the dark past to the cross-border scientific research of scholars; from the ethical game of hibernation technology to the doomsday warning of the earth's axis flipping, the novel connects individual destiny, the rise and fall of civilizations, and the laws of the universe. In the suspenseful narrative, it raises the ultimate question about the origin of mankind, the change of civilization, and the nature of the world. It is shocking and thought-provoking to read.
