Scientists have discovered a new tectonic boundary forming under Zambia, and it could tear Africa in two. The Kafue Rift is part of the Southwest African Rift System, a 1,500-mile (2,500 km) system of cracks in Earth's crust running from Tanzania to Namibia. Scientists think this could one day become the edge of a new tectonic plate boundary, splitting Africa into the Nubian and Somali plates. #africa #science #earth
