💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌍🗺️ Scientists in #NewZealand led an international team to map the boundaries of a massive #underwater landmass.

By analyzing rock samples dredged from the ocean floor alongside satellite #data, researchers confirmed this crustal block sits distinct from #Australia. The resulting map provides a complete picture of how this continent separated from #Gondwana millions of years ago.
