	Inaccessible Island Geology
		The Tristan da Cunha group is one of a number of oceanic islands lying close to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge: new oceanic crust is being produced along this ridge, and as crust is formed, the plates on either side of the ridge are being pushed apart.
		The Geology of Inaccessible Island is difficult to study, owing to the large depth of peat bog which covers the plateau in the centre of the island.
		These flows dip gently eastwards throughout the islands, indicating that the volcanic centre was to the west of the present island.

	History of Inaccessible Island, South Atlantic Ocean
		Inaccessible Island was discovered by the Dutch ship t'Nachtglas in 1652, and named after it, with the phrase "inaccessible" added in parentheses after the name as the sailors who landed were unable to get further inland than the beach.
		Their visits are often made at the request of expatriates, and it was on one such voyage that the missionary Rogers discovered the Inaccessible Island Flightless Rail.
		Attempts to map the island also failed due to cloud cover, and to this day there are few accurate maps of the island.
