The poison belt6/8/2023 Challenger seals them in the room with cylinders of oxygen, which he (correctly) believes will counter the effect of the ether. In the course of his researches into various phenomena, Challenger has predicted that the Earth is moving into a belt of poisonous ether which, based on its effect on the people of Sumatra earlier in the day, he expects to stifle humanity. On arrival they are ushered into a sealed room, along with Challenger and his wife. Challenger sends telegrams asking his three companions from The Lost World-Edward Malone, Lord John Roxton, and Professor Summerlee-to join him at his home outside London, and instructs each of them to 'bring oxygen'. The Poison Belt is a science fiction novella by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle about Professor Challenger.
