Over the past 2 billion years, Earth's continents have collided together to form a supercontinent every 200 to 600 million years, known as the supercontinent cycle. This means that the current ...

That supercontinent could form within the next 250 million years. When a new supercontinent forms, it could be enough to send temperatures rising even more steeply than they already are.

A new study suggests Earth’s next supercontinent could trigger a mass extinction, making most of the land uninhabitable.

Extreme temperatures in future may potentially lead to the first mass extinction on Earth since the dinosaurs, a new study ...

The study claims that Earth's continents are drifting and will one day form a single supercontinent. This will be accompanied ...

The supercontinent Nuna – also known as Colombia ... just waiting to cough up jewels for the next generation of celebrity engagements.

The international team of scientists applied climate models, simulating temperature, wind, rain, and humidity trends for the next supercontinent - called Pangea Ultima - expected to form in the ...

The mantle is split up into two domains — the African and the Pacific — that emerged when supercontinent Pangaea broke apart. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Ever since the term “Snowball Earth” was first proposed in a 1992 paper, it has prompted substantial debate among scientists.

Led by Dr. Alexander Farnsworth, a Senior Research Associate at the University of Bristol, the research explores the formation of a new supercontinent, Pangea Ultima, and its catastrophic impacts ...

The Earth hasn't approached this level of homogeneity, a.k.a. blandness, since all our continents were smashed together as one supercontinent known as Pangaea. That was roughly 300 million years ago.
