Under the Deep Ocean Venture, Indian researchers have detected a piercing airway below the surface in the Indian Ocean that exists 4500 meters below. It is a hydrothermal vent. Researchers say that this discovery will increase the confidence of scientists and will give you the necessary experience to explore the deep sea in the future.

The National Institute of Ocean Generation (NIT) and National Center for Polar and Ocean Research (Nationwide Center for Polar and Ocean Analysis (NCPOR) have done this work together. Vent is discovered in the Indian Ocean.
What are hydrothrmal vents
Hydrothmal vent is called a hot waterfall under water in easy language. These are formed along the middle oceans where tectonic plates are separated. When the inner layer of the earth comes out of the mantle, it makes the new upper layer crust. It is also responsible for creating a series of volcanic mountains. When the sea water leaks in this new crust, it is hot and burs back. It contains dissolved minerals which freeze when coming out in cold water outside.
What is Deep Ocean Venture
Deep Ocean Venture is the ambitious maritime mission of India, which has been stated to be 4 thousand crores. The purpose of the mission is to highlight the new minerals in the sea, study unique ecosystem of the sea, and take forward the understanding of what the ocean can be in climate change or climate change. NCPor director Thamban Meloth has described this discovery as a milestone, which is a big achievement in India of 4 thousand crores. The first hydrothermal vent was discovered in 1977 in Galapagos Rift. But this is India’s first discovery in the Indian Ocean.
