The massive <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/gravityanomaly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gravityanomaly</span></a> has puzzled scientists for years. Now, a new study proposes that the ancient remains of another ocean that sank deep into the Earth itself gave rise to the <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/IndianOcean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndianOcean</span></a> geoid low (<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/IOGL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IOGL</span></a>), as the anomaly is called. <br><a href="https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7b734/massive-gravity-anomaly-caused-by-ancient-sea-remnants-deep-inside-earth-study-says" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">vice.com/en/article/v7b734/mas</span><span class="invisible">sive-gravity-anomaly-caused-by-ancient-sea-remnants-deep-inside-earth-study-says</span></a></p>
