Washington report says two geologists Amos Nar and Zvi Ben-Avraham propose a vanished continent named Pacifica in the South Pacific. They contend it existed about 225 million years ago near present Australia and split into fragments that drifted across the Pacific, reshaping Earth’s crust over eons.
