but went under-prepared for the adversities they faced, and succumbed to fatal accidents. In conclusion, the availability of several sophisticated tools for adverse journeys has made travelling to remote locations an easier feat.

Such

travels help maximise human potential in science and physical capacity. If carried out with caution these journeys can prove to be fruitful, or else the adventure can lead to irreconcilable consequences for the individual.
