Continental Drift

Delve into the groundbreaking theory of Continental Drift by Alfred Wegner, exploring its connections to glaciation 180 million years ago, Gondwanaland, equatorial deposits, and the fossil record. Discover how mountain belts, the Earth’s magnetic field, and polar wandering further support this paradigm shift in geology.
