Hello Guest,

This Topic should be under "General", or "Educational", unless you have a special reason to do with "Chemical and Material Science".

I shall ask CR4 Admin to move the Topic.

The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is where the magma upwell, then shrinks as it cools and fuses to the adjacent crustal plates which are always on the move.

Try "Google Earth", a free application, which allows you to view almost every part of the planet Earth, and able to Zoom in/out, rotate the view, and more.

There are oceanic Mountain chains right around the planet Earth, refer Mid-Atlantic Ridge here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Atlantic_Ridge

New Zealand, where I live, is an extremely large super-Continent, astride 2 major crustal plates, (which are both divergent, also convergent), most of which lies under 2kM of sea water.

We are called "The Shaky Isles", because of the large number of earthquakes here, most of which do little or no surface damage.

I hope that encourages you to learn more, about the carefully designed Planet Earth, which we live on for a time.

Kind Regards....
