A California paleontologist has created an interactive map that allows people to see how far their hometowns have moved over 750 million years of continental drift.

Continental drift was Alfred Wegener's theory proposing continents move position on the Earth's surface.

A single enormous landmass dominated the globe, a supercontinent retroactively called Pangea (or Pangaea, if you prefer; either way, it's Greek for “all Earth”). Through a long and infinitesimally ...

As much as he liked to study the weather,Wegener is best known today as the father of the continentaldrift theory and the early theory of plate tectonics (the movement of the Earth’s plates).

Continental drift allowed flora and fauna to thrive, evolve and adapt separately, and we see that today on islands like the Galapagos or Madagascar.

The film discusses the theory of plate tectonics and continental drift, explaining how the Earth's surface has changed over time. It highlights the concept of tectonic plates moving due to ...

This animated documentary tells the story of polar explorer Alfred Wegener, the unlikely scientist behind continental drift theory.

As the continents drift around, they occasionally assemble into supercontinents. The motion of continental plates likely began about 3.5 billion years ago.

So, around 300 million years ago, continental drifts took place and several huge landmasses collided with each other over time to form Pangaea: the supercontinent.
