Zealandia is a nearly submerged continent hidden beneath the southwest Pacific Ocean. Scientists confirmed it as Earth’s eighth continent because of its distinct geology, thicker continental crust, and separation from Australia millions of years ago. Around 94 percent of Zealandia lies underwater, with New Zealand and New Caledonia forming its largest visible landmasses. It offers major clues about plate tectonics and Earth’s ancient history.
