New Delhi:
An unnamed island within Victoria Island in the territory of Nunavut de Canada has the rare distinction of being the world’s largest island on an island on an island
The satellite images of The Operational Land Imress (OLI) in Landsat 8 confirmed the presence of this unique relief form. This is how it goes: in the center is an island in the form of a seahorse, approximately 1,000 feet wide, located inside a small nameless lake. This lake itself is part of a larger island, which is located within a long finger -shaped lake about 90 kilometers in the southern coast of Victoria Island.
Guinness World Records has officially recognized this location as the largest of its kind. Since Victoria Island, also known as “Kitlineq” by the Inuit, is the eighth largest island in the world and part of the vast archipelago of the Canadian Arctic, there is a potential for non -discovered terrestrial forms of a similar nature. The region, dotted with thousands of islands and millions of lakes after age, remains largely unexplored.
Many islands and recursive lakes, which mean manage forms that follow a pattern of islands within islands or lakes inside lakes, have been identified using satellite images. However, due to the extreme distance of this Arctic landscape, it is very likely that no human has stepped on this island in particular. As mapping technologies and satellite images continue to improve, the discovery of more unusual relief forms can still be ahead.
Previously, NASA’s satellites observed a temporary island that emerges on the coast of Azerbaijan in the Caspian Sea, just to disappear in two years. The dough of earth, created by an eruption of the Kumani Bank mud volcano, was first seen in early 2023 and had completely eroded at the end of 2024. The eruption, which lasted only a few days in February 2023, He was one of the many registered in the area, with similar events dating from 1861.
