#7: A Static World
Many of us assume it’s an old belief that the continents never moved. However, someone took to the internet to share that they learned this false information as a kid. They learned that the continents never shifted or moved. The Earth as we know it has always existed in the exact same way. Not.
Obviously, the continents move all the time. What else explains earthquakes and mountain ranges? Over time, scientists have concluded that all landmass used to be connected as Pangea, a giant supercontinent. Over time, plates shifted and ripped land apart to form the continents we know and love today. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
