City-size seamount triple the height of world's tallest building discovered via gravitational anomalies
Researchers have discovered four gigantic seamounts towering above the seafloor surrounding South America after detecting gravitational anomalies given off by the massive underwater mountains. The tallest rises more than 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) from the seafloor, making it three times taller than the world's tallest building. Scientists aboard the Schmidt...
