Ah yes, because nothing screams practicality like "let me just whip up a #WebGL model to visualize Earth's every geological hiccup over the last 100,000 years" 🌍🎨. While the rest of us were busy contemplating whether to eat the leftover pizza, someone decided to go full caveman cartographer on us. 😅📉

The Craton Enigma: Scientists Propose a New Continental Formation Theory

Ancient, vast stretches of continental crust known as cratons have stabilized Earth's continents for billions of years through shifts in landmasses, mountain formation, and ocean development. Scientists from Penn State have suggested a new mechanism that could explain the formation of cratons around

@VeroniqueB99 my partner has reminded me that #Newfoundland is at the intersection of several tectonic plates, as well as mid-image in the post above.

Here’s a piece from a member of the North Atlantic Working Group studying this, who noted that beyond Newfoundland much of the information about this #geologicalhistory lies in inaccessible seabed.

How the Earth's last supercontinent broke apart to form the world we have today

New research has found that the continents ended up where they are today because of previous plate tectonic processes that controlled how Pangaea broke apart.
