According to scientists, that slow-motion drift will one day result in the total closure of the Pacific Basin and the birth of a new supercontinent: Amasia.

We often take it for granted that our neighborhood will be where we remember it is at the end of the day. In reality, the ...

Pangaea, the ancient supercontinent, holds fascinating clues about Earth’s history and its future. From shifting continents to climate changes, discover what this geological wonder can teach us ...

Supercomputer simulations predicted the climatic consequences of Earth's potential supercontinent formation, which could pose a threat to human survival.

Scientists simulated how Earth will look in millions of years, and found that drifting continents may again form a supercontinent, similar to Pangea.

Pannotia is another debated supercontinent, which may have briefly existed around 560 million years ago, combining parts of Gondwana, North America and Northern Europe.

When dinosaurs roamed the Earth, the planet looked different as there were supercontinents. The Pangea, Gondwana, and Pannotia were the three most recent supercontinents. A supercontinent is defined ...

Scientists at the University of Bristol have used supercomputer climate models to predict the formation of a future supercontinent called Pangea Ultima, which is expected to occur 250 million ...

Diamonds contain evidence of the mantle rocks that helped buoy and grow the ancient supercontinent Gondwana from below, according to new research. These findings demonstrate that superdeep ...

A recent study published in Nature Geoscience uses supercomputer climate models to examine how a supercontinent, dubbed Pangea Ultima (also called Pangea Proxima), that will form 250 million years ...

The creation of a new “supercontinent” could kill all life on Earth in 250 million years, researchers predicted. Scientists from the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom, using the ...
