All about Plate Tectonics

Plate tectonics or paleogeography has always fascinated me for as far back as I can remember.

Here is a video from PBS Eons explaining this science, its origins, mechanism, and history:

• The Whole Saga of the Supercontinents

Here is another presentation on the importance of plate tectonics, from What If:

• What If All Plate Tectonics Movement Stopped Forever?

Here are two online plate tectonics simulators:

• Ancient Earth

• Earth Viewer

Notice how Pangaea was not the first supercontinent.

Of particular interest are projections into future continental configurations together with the concern of human habitability. Regarding that, Amos 4:13 reminds us that the Creator is the “Former of the mountains,” so He is in control of future continental geography and our habitation.
