Nikolay Robotoev 🥞🎙️Earth is the only known planet that has plate tectonics—the process that does so much to preserve life on the planet. The only one out of four rocky planets. Amazing, right?
I was reading today about how researchers plan to observe this process on distant exoplanets. Such planets where one year takes 12 hours and one hemisphere always faces the sun while the other never sees daylight.
Their quest is to answer what starts this process.
