Scientists have discovered an ocean located 700 km below Earth's surface, within a mineral called ringwoodite. This ocean exists in the Earth's transition zone.
- Ringwoodite is a rare mineral that forms from olivine under extremely high pressures and temperatures. Its unique crystal structure allows it to absorb water and hydrogen, acting like a sponge.
- The heavyweight of rocks and high temperatures deep within the Earth break down water into its components.
➡️Significance of Discovery:
- The hidden ocean within ringwoodite is larger than all surface oceans combined, challenging current theories on Earth's water sources and prompting new inquiries into its formation.
- The discovery suggests that Earth's water may have originated deep within the planet and slowly leaked out over time, explaining the abundance of water on the surface.
- This internal water source could influence volcanic activity and the formation of new crust, shedding light on Earth's geological processes.

35 Candidates Have Won Lok Sabha Polls Without A Contest So Far Since 1951
The BJP's Mukesh Dalal has become the first candidate in the last 12 years to win a Lok Sabha election unopposed. He is also perhaps the first candidate from the BJP to have ever won a parliamentary poll unopposed.
Sheetal was born 2 years after the marriage of her parents. Her father got married at the age of 28 years. At present, sheetal's mother is 4 times the age of Sheetal. What was the age of her mother at marriage if the average of all members of family today is 30 years?

What is power? Is power a measure of where your troop are stationed? Is power about where your currency circulates? Is power the measure of geographical area?
To recognize real elites, you need to define what elites are known for: Power.
Just as you need to define power to define politics itself. And this definition of power has to be precise enough to not to be confused or equated with wealth or knowledge or something like that. Meaning of power is by default social in nature here. And society is never made of one man alone. What I'm trying to say here is, power can only be compared between two separate independent entities.
Imagine a world like that of Robinson crusoe, a single man on an island. Take it further and think of a single man in the entire universe. Is he powerful ?
Who knows? Who cares ? How can anybody tell ? He lives alone!
Power has no social context here to be evaluated upon.
However, in a hypothetical world of two people: now we have ability to compare.
One can be exerting his will over the other, ie one might have power over the other, the concept of power has come into being here.
Wealth on the other hand can be free from social context, by it's ability of being pure material in nature.
You might be alone in an island. But being alone with all the modern amenities like housing, irrigation and machinery would be very different than being alone in pure virgin nature where you have to survive from scratch. This is why you can have concept of wealth without concept of power, through material conditions.
