India's Tectonic Plate is Splitting! What Does it Mean?

Explore the latest groundbreaking discovery in geology! 🌍 Dive into how the collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates forms the majestic Himalayas and uncover new evidence suggesting that the Indian plate is splitting apart beneath these towering peaks. Using a fun cake analogy, we simplify complex tectonic processes, including delamination, where the denser part of a tectonic plate sinks into the mantle. Learn how scientists, equipped with seismometers, and helium-three isotopes, unravel the mysteries of our planet’s interior. This revelation not only reshapes our understanding of plate tectonics but also holds the key to improved earthquake prediction.
