"Lost Continent Found: Scientists Uncover 375-Year Mystery"

TL;DR Summary
Geoscientists have discovered Zealandia, a continent that had been hidden for 375 years. Zealandia, also known as Te Riu-a-Māui, is approximately 1.89 million square miles in size and was part of the supercontinent Gondwana. It was first mentioned in 1642 by Dutch sailor Abel Tasman, but its existence was confirmed in 2017. Most of Zealandia is underwater, and it has only three territories. The discovery of Zealandia serves as an example of how something "very obvious" can take a long time to uncover.
