ESA's #GOCE gravity mapper mission is revealing relics of ancient continents under Antarctic ice: with more than 98% of its surface covered by ice with an average thickness of 2 km, #Antarctica largely remains a blank spot on current geological maps http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Observing_the_Earth/GOCE/ESA_s_gravity-mapper_reveals_relics_of_ancient_continents_under_Antarctic_ice https://twitter.com/esa/status/1061305988408590337/video/1 source: https://twitter.com/esa/status/1061305988408590337

Using GPS, researchers have found that West #Antarctica is rising faster than almost anywhere else in the world. And, ESA's #GOCE gravity mission has, in turn, helped them to understand that the mantle below is unusually fluid.
