Scientists Discover Hidden 'Hotspot' That Created the Great Lakes Before North America Existed

A groundbreaking new study reveals that the Great Lakes owe their existence to an ancient hotspot that once lay beneath the supercontinent Pangaea—long before North America even formed. This hotspot, now located under the Cape Verde Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, played a crucial role in shaping the region where the Great Lakes are found today. Over 300 million years, the hotspot stretched the Earth's crust, creating a depression that glaciers later filled with water during the ice age.

Join us as we explore this fascinating discovery that not only reshapes our understanding of the Great Lakes but also reveals the ancient forces that shaped the continent!
