Will another sea be created in Africa?

From the Red Sea coast to Tanzania there is an extensive valley carved by volcanoes. This valley is gradually spreading and the African 'horn' may separate from the continent in millions of years.

Scientists don't know why it's happening, but accept that it can be a consequence of plate tectonics. According to them, if this plot is separated a new sea will be created, similar to the Red Sea.

To investigate this differentiation, geologists have launched a project called EAGLE (Ethiopia Afar Geo-scientific Lithospheric Experimental).
