It's a common childhood fantasy: What if you dug a hole ... ocean compared to land, chances are fairly strong that no matter where you start digging, you'll find yourself in an ocean on the other ...

It is found in the depths of Indian Ocean and named as the gravity hole or Indian Ocean geoid low, an anomaly on earth where gravity is said to be weaker, and levels of sea dip by more than 328 feet ...

There is a “gravity hole” in the Indian Ocean — a spot where Earth’s gravitational pull is weaker, its mass is lower than normal, and the sea level dips by over 328 feet (100 meters).

Called the Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL), it features an enormous dip in the ocean’s surface, dropping 106 meters lower than surrounding areas. This "gravity hole" has baffled scientists for ...

Sinkholes don't just happen on land, they also happen in the ocean where they're known as blue holes. And now, researchers say they've found the deepest one yet on the planet – one so large that ...

The scientific team working with Branson will now be producing a 3D view of the Great Blue hole. They are also involved in Ocean Unite—a conservation group that hopes to protect 30 percent of ...

The area of Earth with the lowest relative gravity is located just south of India in the Indian Ocean. This gravity “hole” may be due to low-density plumes of magma disturbed by the sinking ...

Astronomers have now produced the highest resolution direct images ever taken of a supermassive black hole in the infrared ... two separate telescopes mounted side by side. The Large Binocular ...

The so-called gravity hole in the Indian Ocean has been puzzling scientists for almost a century, but the mystery might finally have been solved, according to a recent paper published in the ...

New research suggests that the negative effects of the ozone hole on the carbon uptake of the Southern Ocean are reversible, ...
