Travel 250 million years through deep time and watch the continents drift and reshape the world, with the great events of each age.
The continents have not always been where they are. This tool runs deep time as a sequence of stops, from the assembled supercontinent of Pangaea through its break-up to the coastlines we know, with the coastline of each age drawn as it actually was.
Each stage carries the events that defined it — mass extinctions, the rise and fall of whole groups of animals, the opening of oceans that still exist.
Step through the ages, or let it play. The globe redraws at every stage, so you can watch India cross an ocean to hit Asia and raise the Himalayas.
