Scientists find ‘yellow brick road’ deep beneath the Pacific Ocean: The surprising truth about its construction
Deep in the Pacific, researchers aboard the E/V Nautilus discovered a peculiar, yellow brick road-like structure at nearly 3,000 meters. Initially sparking Atlantis comparisons, the formation is actually a hyaloclastite, shaped by ancient volcanic activity. This finding highlights the vast unknown of the deep sea and offers insights into the Pacific Ocean floor’s volcanic history and Earth’s crust evolution.
