Earth's Supercontinents - The 500-Million-Year Cycle That Never Stops

Earth's continents are always moving — merging into supercontinents and breaking apart again in an endless cycle spanning hundreds of millions of years. From Pangea to the mysterious future supercontinent Amasia or Pangea Ultima, discover how convection currents deep in Earth's mantle drive tectonic plates at the speed of growing fingernails, constantly reshaping our world. The Atlantic is widening right now. The Pacific is shrinking. Our current map is just a snapshot in deep time — a temporary phase of maximum continental dispersal. But one day, the continents will collide again, building colossal mountain ranges and creating extreme inland climates before the cycle repeats. This dance will only end when Earth's interior finally cools and our planet becomes a static, single-plate world.
