Harry Hess's discovery was important because it helped explain the theory of continental drift. His discovery, that on the sea floor magma pushes up which causes the plate tectonics to move which carries the continents with it, explains better reasoning to the theory. It also helped the scienctist to explain how the sea floor spreading is happening.
