  The researchers are very lucky for this occurrence since they are able to witness the birth of this ocean as the process is normally hidden beneath the sea. This will help them to understand how the surface of the Earth is shaped. In addition ,it will also help them to have a better understanding in natural disasters such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
