South Atlantic Ocean 0 Latitude--
Bethany and I did the ocean mission from the Distance of Macapa island to Livreville, Africa. Between the two continent there is the Mid-Atlantic ridge, that we ran into after 1,400 feet form Macapa. That also where South American plate and African plate meet. I also believe that the end of my margin went about 1100 feet from Macapa. Eviendce, from my ocean floor map shows that cause there is a big drop off from there. About 3500 miles out i hit the the africas margin.On the map it shows a slope leading to a kinda straight top. I hope im sure about this cause the trench also pushs new rock/land into ocean makin it look like Margins on top. In conclusion, my trip wasnt flat land and very confusing. :)))))
