I always follow good stuff in plate tectonics, and this is the best. Of course, you've always could have seen it since the beginning of Time, in Google Earth. :)
But this is all semantics. The paper now says it should be a continent rather than pieces of rock. And that's big news! Like planet being demoted to planetoid and back again, and back again.
But trumpies can't build a hotel on it with Russian money. It needs to dry out a bit. Perhaps a new Ice Age might exposed prime property. But it is interesting to note that this is what happens to any continent who loses its heat engine.
