This shows tectonic movement! The Indian subcontinent is moving super fast north, creating the Himalayas but also creating a very deep chasm to the south in the Indian Ocean.

The Mid-Atlantic ridge is also visible, growing Europe as North America is subsumed.

Thanks for sharing something super cool!
