I have a question so god had commanded a 1000 generations and generation it's 40 years. So does this mean it was 40,000 years that god made people doing O.T? referencing Psalms 105:8

it is just a poetic expression. No need to take it literally. The higher number probably cements the notion that God is faithful, as he was in the past so will he be in future.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.

I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.
