⚡️ The map led Tharp to realize that the ocean floor could help prove the scientific theory of continental drift and the idea that the continents are moving.
⚡️ In the late 1940s, Tharp began working as a research assistant at the @Lamont_Doherty at Columbia University, NY. This is where she met her fellow geologist Bruce Heezen, with whom she would work for the next 30 years.
