It's so beautiful, it's a little pediatric at the beginning, and it's getting more and more exciting later.

Science is power, technology is everything, and it's not bad at all... It's very difficult to realize that steam castle in reality, even in today's advanced technology, but I can feel the mood of the boy's father. Watching the engineering masterpiece of your own design can be successfully launched, it is inevitable to be ecstatic and lose your mind...

In this film, the principle of the steam castle's lift off is similar to that of a rocket, that is, by the reaction force of the air. The power required to lift such a behemoth into the air is unimaginable. If there is no "special liquid" that exists like a bug, it is extremely difficult to achieve only with a steam boiler. The method of changing the direction is not very clear. Judging from the "close X valve" and "adjust the pressure" in the dialogue, the flight control principle of this castle is also similar to that of the rocket. It is estimated that it is adjusted by the movable nozzle. .

This film is like a steam version of Star Wars, the reverse BOSS is also disfigured, the steam castle is similar to the Death Star, and there is a steam version of the Terminator army wearing armor. In addition, there are three other places worth mentioning:

1. I almost burst into tears when I saw the Crimson's forward-looking Catamaran Hull Shape design.

2. When I saw the main guns of the British Empire's ironclads firing, I almost burst into tears again. In appearance, that ship is clearly a pre-dreadnought, which would not have been possible in 1866, the year the story takes place.

3. It is very strange that the steam in the film freezes instantly. According to common sense, the liquid needs to absorb heat when it is vaporized, but the steam discharged from the film absorbs the surrounding heat, which is a bit incredible. The liquid absorbs heat and converts it into steam, and the steam is discharged to the surroundings at a high temperature, forming a temperature difference with the surroundings. When the high-temperature steam encounters the cold air, the steam will emit heat to return to the liquid state, so it is only possible to emit heat, and it is impossible to absorb heat. This violates the second law of thermodynamics...
