A little "lithospheric drip," anyone? That's what scientists have found beneath the Great Basin in Nevada. It's an oozing mass of rock up to 60 miles wide that may reach 310 miles below the planet's surface. The blob has broken from Earth's crust and is sinking into its liquid mantle, trailing material as it goes. Scientists compare it to honey dripping from a spoon.
