Where are the two ships at port in I spy treasure hunt page 14-15?

It’s the two ships in the middle of the map by the pier. One is berthed to the pier (tied) and the other is at anchor nearby. Here’s a definition of port because it’s somewhat industry jargon; Port: A port is a facility or location where vessels can dock or anchor to load and unload cargo, passengers, or fuel. A port is a complex infrastructure that includes docks, piers, terminals, warehouses, and other facilities required for maritime activities.


The Ross dependency is a territory administered by new zealand Where was it?

The Ross Dependency is part of Antarctica. It is important because it is where the southernmost unfrozen water will be found. In our summer naturally. Ross Island is a smallish island in the Dependency, which is home to the USA's McMurdo Base, and NZ's Scott Base. In summer quite large ships may dock at McMurdo to unload supplies for the other stations in the interior of Antarctica. Other stations so supplied are Amunsden-Scott Station at the South Pole, Scott Base, and in summer various temporary science camps. Actually territorial claims to Antarctica are in limbo, since the Antarctic Treaty does not recognize them. Christchurch is the airport most commonly used for air transport to Antarctica, though Invercargill has occasionally been used. Both can take very large planes.


How do weapons unload the casings from their bullets?

By bolt action, recoil, pump-action or lever action. A casing is hot after the bullet has been fired, so pulled back on a bolt will open the chamber and fling the casing out. Fully automatic and semi-auto guns fire with recoil. The blast from firing a bullet launches the hammer back and allows the casing to come flying out a hole in the side of the gun. Lever action works pretty much the same as bolt-action and was used before weapons could load in a new bullet. The lever would push out the old casing and put in a new bullet and casing in. Pump action works just the same as lever action, but was used because you could keep your eye on the target while pumping, instead of having to aim, shoot, move the lever and reaim, you could just aim, shoot, pump, and shoot again without having to look around for your target.
