In the Indian Ocean, there is a place where the laws of gravity seem to falter—a gigantic depression in the Earth’s geoid ...

Deep below the Indian Ocean, there’s a giant “gravity hole” over one million square ... a potato-shaped map that visually exaggerates these gravitational dips and valleys.

Contrary to what you may intuit, the Earth's gravity isn't uniform, and there's one place where it's much weaker than anyone ...

They suggest that plumes of magma from deep within the Earth, similar to those involved in volcanic creation, are responsible What is the gravity hole? In layman language, the Indian Ocean Geoid ...

The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is Earth's deepest geoid low. Its weak gravitational pull makes sea levels here 348 feet lower than average, creating a 1.2-million-square-mile anomaly southwest of ...

Will this gravity hole vanish? Future tectonic shifts may erase it in millions of years — or it might linger as a geological relic, depending on Earth’s deep dynamics. Though this study offers ...
