Antarctica has a 'gravity hole'

Environment Climate Change Antarctica has a'gravity hole' The geological oddity has existed since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. A "gravity hole" beneath Antarctica sounds like the plot to a bad sci-fi movie, but it's a very real situation deep beneath the Earth's surface stretching back tens of millions of years. The phenomenon thankfully isn't as apocalyptic as it sounds, either. In fact, researchers say these complex interactions between rock densities, gravitational pull, and sea levels are actually helping them understand how the southernmost continent's ice sheets evolved, and what their influences mean for the planet's climate.
