Hidden underneath the deepest depths of the Indian Ocean is a spot where the Earth’s gravitational pull is weaker and its mass is lower than most other places on the planet. This conundrum has ...

Scientists have mapped these valleys and dips, but the one that has fascinated them the most is the dip in the Indian Ocean which was discovered way back in 1948.

In the Indian Ocean, there is a place where the laws of gravity seem to falter—a gigantic depression in the Earth’s geoid where the gravitational force is weaker than normal, causing the sea level to ...

In recent years, China has been successful in entering the Indian Ocean. It is believed that Chinese submarines are present in some way or the other in the deep waters of the Indian Ocean.

The long-pondered mysterious depression spot in the Indian Ocean that experiences less gravity than the rest of the planet is likely due to large plumes of magma under the Earth’s crust ...

Officially known as “the Indian Ocean geoid low” (IOGL), it is informally referred to as the Indian Ocean gravity hole. At the IOGL, the sea level dips by a staggering 328 feet (100 meters ...

Mystery of ‘gravity hole’ in the Indian Ocean finally solved after 75 years The region of lower gravity, discovered in 1948, manifests as a vast depression in the ocean's surface that reaches ...

Socotra: The mysterious 'Alien Island' of the Indian Ocean. Socotra Island in Yemen is known for its unique biodiversity, with a majority of its flora and fauna being endemic.

The Indian Ocean has a mysterious million-square-mile 'gravity hole' where sea levels are 300ft lower ... This dip in gravity means the water level is around 340 feet lower than the surrounding ...

Water isn’t draining from the ocean, and it isn’t a mysterious blue hole. Instead, the “hole” is simply a spot in the Earth’s geoid where gravity is lower than average, thus making the ...
