The world which we inhabit is composed of the materials, not of the earth which was the immediate predecessor of the present, but of the earth which, in ascending from the present, we consider as the third, and which had preceded the land that was above the surface of the sea, while our present land was yet beneath the water of the ocean.Comment:
I think its amazing that all this time ago, we were able to figure out that the world once was entirely under the ocean. It seems like an accepted fact now, but it was discovered so long ago. I think that is so cool.Connection:
One day, I want to discover some amazing new fact that will help the world advance. I want to be someone who helps the world.Question:
How was it was discovered that the world was once under the ocean?
