Geological processes on the surface, particularly in Africa 's Afar region, indicate the formation of a new ocean, which could eventually reshape the continent's geography.

The Earth 's interior is composed of several layers, the crust, the mantle, and the core.

Between the upper and lower mantle lies the transition zone, spanning depths of approximately 410 to 660 kilometers .

This transition zone could contain a substantial quantity of water, potentially equivalent to or exceeding the volume of Earth 's surface oceans.
