Remains of ‘Buried Planet’ Uncovered Deep Within Earth, Potentially Linked to Moon-Forming Impact
Scientists have made a fascinating discovery deep within the Earth, uncovering the remains of a ‘buried planet’ possibly linked to a moon-forming impact 4.5 billion years ago. Seismologists identified massive ‘basal mantle anomalies’ beneath the Pacific and Africa, suggesting a unique material composition. Researchers speculate these anomalies could be remnants of a planet named Theia, offering insights into Earth’s collision history and moon formation. The discovery opens new avenues for understanding celestial collisions and planetary dynamics.
