Through 50-200 million years all the continents of the Earth will move into one - AMAZ





This is the conclusion scientists, when they tried to simulate the slow movement of continents over the next few tens of millions of years.

Experts analyzed the magnetism of ancient rocks in order to calculate their position in the world over time, and measured, as the mantle, located beneath the earth's crust will shift the continents that float on its surface.

They found that the supercontinent called Amasya should be formed over the Arctic.

First, connect the two parts of America moved towards the north, which will lead to a collision with Europe and Asia at the North Pole. Australia will continue its way to the north and settled down in India.

The idea is not new supercontinent. About 300 million years ago, the supercontinent Pangea included all seven continents. But the upper part of the Earth's mantle is mobile enough, and as it moves, and moving tectonic plates above it, causing short-term earthquake, moving the entire continent for millions of years. So the movement of tectonic plates split Pangea about 200 million years ago, just as it split the previous supercontinent Rodinia another 500 million years ago.
