Scientists have uncovered a massive hidden ocean located 700 kilometers beneath the Earth’s surface. This ocean is so vast that it could contain enough water to swallow all the world’s surface water three times over. Researchers are amazed by this discovery, which challenges our understanding of the Earth’s internal structure.
This hidden ocean resides within a mineral called ringwoodite. This mineral can hold water in its structure under high pressure, leading to the idea that vast amounts of water exist deep within the Earth. This finding opens new doors for understanding geological processes and the history of water on our planet. The existence of such an ocean could reshape our theories about the Earth’s water cycle and its formation.
