A billion years of Earth evolution in 40 seconds! (video)

I’ve become intense A billion years of Earth evolution in 40 seconds? However, a team of scientists succeeded thanks to visualizing plate tectonic activity, which depicts how quickly the planet is changing over time.

Specifically, in 2021, a group of scientists was created One of the most complete activity tracking templates Of the Earth’s plate tectonics that has ever occurred, but a few months ago he posted the video, which you’ll see below. It is really impressive to see large pieces of irregular solid rock moving over millions of years, thus revealing locations that we now know as separate continents located in completely different parts of the planet.

For example Antarctica, a place known for very cold temperatures, at some point in the past It was at the equator of the planetSince then the earth has been much warmer. For us humans, plate tectonic shifts are observed at only a few centimeters each year, but in Over long periods of time, the change has been drastic.

Not only do these models help learn more about the movement patterns of tectonic plates, but they also help them predict where they will end up in the future.
