Today we will talk about the Pacific ocean, the largest and most majestic ocean on the planet, which is not characterized by a calm character. The name "Quiet" was given to it by the greatly mistaken Ferdinand Magellan, who during the journey did not observe any storms or any other excesses. If we take the entire water surface of the Earth for 100%, the Pacific ocean will take up almost half of this amount, namely 46%. For comparison, the share of the Indian ocean is only 20%. And if you conditionally combine all the earth's land into one continent, its area will be less than the area of the Pacific ocean.
And if you distribute all the water of the Pacific ocean evenly over the surface of the planet, it will cover it completely, and the thickness of the water layer will exceed 2700 m.
The Pacific ocean is the largest of the earth's four oceans. It occupies almost half of the surface of our planet. From the East, the Pacific ocean washes Eurasia and Australia, from the West - North and South America, and from the South - Antarctica.
