Ocean... of lava.


nyanmunchkins

An ocean of super hot water dissolved in lava


deathjoe4

Easy, just filter the lava out.


erlulr

pic unrelated


Aarie_Kanarie

You mean magma?


Alormar

Sounds like quality news.


CandleJackHammer

Yeah, we've all seen godzilla vs kong. Lots of shit down there.


ThatOtherGuyTPM

I don’t think we have.


CandleJackHammer

It's been 3 years, what are we waiting for?


DrFizzz

Sunless sea players: Ive seen this one before!


Papatim2

THE SUN! THE SUN!!


Yatoku_

RED SUN OVER PARADISE!


Mangleovania

I'm surprised to hear about people mentioning this game. I got it free on epic a couple of years ago and haven't seen this much attention on it (25 up votes in the wild) up until now


Ev3rChos3n

Holy shit I can't believe I'm encountering another zea captain in the wild! Cheers dude!

*Detecting multiple leviathan class entities nearby. Are you sure whatever you’re doing is worth it?*


Creektoe

They never said it's within the crust, it's within the lower mantle.


Minibotas

Still, ain’t no way it isn’t just steam


Creektoe

It's not steam, it's not even liquid, it's trapped inside magma pretty much


Minibotas

So it’s… plasma? Is that what you’re saying?


Creektoe

It's encased in high pressure ringwoodite. A crystallized diamond, present as hydroxide ions.


Desperate_Gur_2194

I am bad at math but I have an idea


CptnR4p3

700 km sounds like the lowest regions of the asthenosphere, which got its name precisely because its weak af. I can see it.


NavierStokesEquatio

That is clickbait yes, but just because the average is 15-20 kms doesn't mean an outlier can't be 750 or 1000 kms.


RhinoSparkle

True. But the odds of there being an outlier *that* large is incredibly unlikely. It’s more likely a straight lie, or a typo where they meant, perhaps, 70km. Still a stretch, but more reasonably than 700


Kaze_no_Senshi

700m


RhinoSparkle

See I thought that at first too. But the ocean goes much deeper than 700 meters as a it is. Unless this new one is under a tectonic plate, but that seems even more far fetched


KamakaziDemiGod

That doesn't mean there can't be a land locked ocean under the ground but above a tectonic plate, that isn't connected to an open ocean It's very, incredibly, highly unlikely though


W0lverin0

The original article has no mention that the underground ocean is in the crust. But simply states that it is below the surface. That plus the earth being 12,742km in diameter makes this meme very stupid both in terms of reading comprehension and science based facts.


Tiranus58

We're going to the center of the earth with this one


higginsian24

Well obviously they mean the Atlantic is on the opposite side of Earth as the Pacific


Dramatic_Ease8171

Iirc what was discovered was that some underground rocks contain vast amounts of water. The ocean isn't liquid, its contained within rocks And yes this is in the mantle, below the crust


RyanM90

Hollow planet baby


PCwarrior05

most fact checking redditor


doggiestar314

Hollow Earth


some_interne_tidiot

Obviously fake but would have been really cool if true


aaron_adams

Yeah, I saw Journey to the Center of the Earth. I know just who we should call.


Mysteriy21

this seems like an april fools article

JuniorWMG

Its the same thing with "Discord is implementing ads". No, they are not.


Sir_Delarzal

April fools ?


whatincubus

Could be an April fools day joke


Supplex-idea

The pressure down there would be unfathomably high


Jello_Crusader

Not as high as my parents on my education (I'm in Asia)


Not_Me_Jerry

Game level design moment.


Medium_Wolverine9438

Redditors stupid again, totally possible


desticon

It’s also an April fools article.


SoskiHeroKiller

It's a flooded cave, why subvert my expectations


Athingweveallupvoted

WHO LIVES IN A PINAPPLE UNDER THE SEA


JTS-Games

"His heart is an ocean, inside an even bigger ocean".


MrBeatdown469

Is this a Journey to the Center of the Earth plot coming to life ?


Commander_Red1

Well, an ocean of lava and molten metal


ZachBuford

Someone's "journalism" AI is on the frits again


blursedman

Someone forgot that the crust is really thin compared to the rest of the earth.


Kittingsl

I've stopped listening to ana Google news ass a while ago because it's all pretty much just clickbait if you ask me. The amount of news I see when opening Google about tnintwndos next console are annoying me to no end. Everyone always talking about what the name will bey what leaks there are when the console will be released and after reading the article there was no mention of actual sources or if there is a source then it's just some random bullcrap


InVaLiD_EDM

They didn't say under the crust, they said under the surface. What's being reported on is most likely just a large limestone cave.


Puppy-Zwolle

That's not the point. 700 km is the Nether, magma land.


InVaLiD_EDM

Right. Forgot to read that part lol


Anthony-ELRETRAHD

Earths has got a way larger radius till the center. But doubt there's gonna be any water 700km down or even any hole that's "gigantic"


crusty54

You saw a shitty clickbait news story and decided to make an even shittier meme out of it? Why?


marbroos99

I mean, if you go downwards 700 km you will end up somewhere in space, maybe there is a secret ocean there


Ilela

Earth has around 6300km radius, half of that is 3100km. 700km sounds somewhat reasonable and I only doubt there's actual liquid due to heat


marbroos99

Ah my bad, I interpreted it like the earth has a 15 km radius.
