Cracks have been found in the vast continental shelf at the bottom of the Indian Ocean.
2020 is full of disasters. One dangerous news after another is coming. The Corona virus is causing a catastrophe all over the world. In the meantime, one disaster after another has taken place. A few days ago, the state of West Bengal in India was devastated by the onslaught of Amphan. An asteroid passed over the earth. The world was saved for destiny. In the midst of all this, gold is moving again and the earth's magnetic field is shifting, not only that, the news of the source is that the sun is getting colder and colder, which may start all over the world. All in all, the whole world is facing a difficult situation. In the meantime, another terrible news is being heard.
Cracks have been found in the vast continental shelf at the bottom of the Indian Ocean. That's according to researchers at the Institute of Earth Physics in Paris recently. The report is published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. A report published on the Live Science website also said that cracks had appeared in this vast tectonic plate.
The Capricorn tectonic plate at the bottom of the Indian Ocean lies between Australia and India. Research shows that the continental shelf is gradually splitting into two. The researchers said that every year about 0.08 inches or 1.6 millimeters away. Although the pace is seemingly slow, experts are concerned. Due to this, they are fearing a terrible earthquake or a catastrophic natural disaster in the near future.
Six years ago in 2012, there were two strong earthquakes under the Indian Ocean. The magnitude of these two tremors on the Richter scale was 7.8 and 7.2, respectively. The quake killed at least 10 people off the coast of Indonesia. Many more were injured. Experts estimate that the cracks in the plate were caused by two strong earthquakes in the Wharton Basin along the Indo-Australian Capricorn tectonic plate.
However, experts have not been able to keep an eye on this change in the Indian Ocean. According to them, this change is taking place so deep in the Indian Ocean and breaking this tectonic plate so slowly that it is often not detected in experiments. However, no matter how low the speed, the fear is still there. The researchers said that the speed at which the two plates were separated from each other, or cracked or cracked, would take a million years to travel a mile. But experts can not be sure. There are a lot of problems with surveillance, especially since the water is very deep. So experts are not sure what exactly is going to happen in the near future.
However, it can be estimated that the life span of the earth is not long. The world is fast approaching destruction.
