What was the Earth like at the time of Pangea? | History of the Earth Documentary

Ғылым және технология

🌍 Six continents separated by vast expanses of water - this is the familiar image of our planet that we have all shared since childhood. But the Earth hasn't always looked like this. Over the past 4.6 billion years, our planet has gone through many geological eras. During some of these eras, almost the entire surface was covered with ice, while in other periods, on the contrary, the polar caps melted completely.
In the distant past, the continents were not arranged as they are today. Land blocks moved relative to each other, which led to movement, collision of continents and the emergence of supercontinents that united almost all the landmasses.
🔥 As a reminder, videos are published on SUNDAYS at 6:00 PM.
-------------------------
💥 Pangea:
- The word "Pangea" comes from the Greek words Pan (meaning "all") and Gaia (meaning "earth"), which means "all the lands". This name perfectly refers to the supercontinent, as Pangea was once one land, since all the lands were then gathered in one place.
A supercontinent is a continent composed of most or all of the Earth's land mass. The most recent supercontinent to include all of Earth's major landmasses and arguably the most famous was Pangea. Supercontinents have sporadically joined and broken up over the course of Earth's geologic history.
Recall that the geologic history of the Earth is a sequence of events in the development of the Earth as a planet. Among these events are the formation of rocks, the emergence and destruction of landforms, the advance and retreat of the seas, ice ages, and the appearance and disappearance of species of living beings.
The most modern definition emphasizes that the supercontinent is a geological formation that, with its structure, affects the distribution of heat flows, air masses of the Earth, etc. It is a large structure, but it does not necessarily unite all the continental blocks.
In the distant past, all the continents formed a single whole, the supercontinent Pangea. This huge continent began to form about 335 million years ago, during the Paleozoic period.
During the process of formation of Pangea from older continents, mountain systems appeared on the places of their collision, some of them still exist today, for example the Urals or the Appalachians.
These early mountains are much older than the relatively young mountain systems such as the Alps in Europe, the Cordillera in North America, the Andes in South America or the Himalayas in Asia. Due to erosion over millions of years, the Urals and the Appalachians are now low mountains.
Most of this supercontinent was concentrated in the southern hemisphere. The only ocean that surrounded it was called "Panthalassa".
Life during Pangea was different from today. The climate was warmer and the fauna and flora were completely different.
Pangea split about 150 to 220 million years ago into two continents. The northern continent of Laurasia then split into Eurasia and North America, while the southern continent of Gondwana then gave rise to Africa, South America, India, Australia and Antarctica.
Supercontinents existed earlier, for example Rodinia, which disintegrated about 750 million years ago, and according to some predictions, in the future, the continents will reunite into a supercontinent called "Pangea Ultima" in about 250 million years, when Africa, America and Eurasia will collide.

    I was a member of the crew on the Lamont Obserivatory's R/V Robert D Conrad-AGOR3, in 1967. We spent months at a time collecting ocean core samples, collecting sea floor densities using recorders that picked up sonar type blast signals from the ship to a series of trailing microphones that plotted the information on a continuous roll of special paper. It was a experience that I was so lucky to have been part of as a 21 year old. We researched the whole globe usualy 30c days at sea and a brief time in port. I spent 10 days in Tahiti on that leg of the trip. I photographed so much, and could write a book about my own personal experience of the adventure. I'm in my late 70's now, sometimes it's hard to believe that the journey ever happened.

    @@SnarlaRae It took a long time to drop core tubes to the ocean bottom and hours to wench them on deck. During this time some of got to swim in clean clear pristine water miles deep. We drop special cameras(primitive to what is used today) They had no shutter they would load a hundred foot roll of black and white film with a very slow winder, there was a strobe flasher to record the what was happening. We would sometimes see different life pass in front of the view and then when it reached the bottom it would rest for a while, flashing before being raised up to the ship. Twice we saw human related debris, one was some kind of can and the other what appeared to be a beer or soda bottle. We had a small clamshell bucket that would take samples from the ocean floor, when brought aboard would almost always have manganese nodules, they were everywhere. We had what looked like an old water heater that had a flapper system top and bottom that we drop into the sea to a prescribed depth to collect a sample of the water which we checked for radiation. The system worked by letting water flow through easly and then would close up and seal that desired water to stay trapped for study. I bought a copy of Kon Tiki before boarding the ship. (I read 2 to 4 books a week when I was aboard ships) There is so much to talk about. Every minute I felt like I was in a movie. In 1973 I was on another ship in the Pacific, you would find trash and plastic every where, we watched on piece of plastic float by and before it was out of sight another would come into view. While back in 1967 we very seldom found trash floating by. Sorry for so much talking but when I get started i could talk all day about it. Most people and my friends hardly even know anything about this time in my life.

    You obviously didn't go to a very good school ! The "Pangea" is only one of many THEORIES, taught when I was at a very expensive school (1960's). A Theory which fails to take into account the Mechanics of the shape of the Worlds Tectonic Plates !!! Certainly planet Earth went through a "Cataclysmic" period not long ago (6000-10,000 years ago), which mainstream science is only now just beginning to wake up to. For that however you need to read Prof Velikovsky's mind boggling work "Worlds in Collision" published by MacMillan in 1950 !!!

I think the "WORD" that supposedly started it all is code for DNA; and it wasn't magic, it was science, the same that we're using now to create esophaguses and bladders and soon hearts and the rest of it. Give us time, we can play God as good as the next guy.

    When you work in a foundry setting, the stuff on top of the hot liquid metal is called "slag" (in my experience) To me it seems that the continents are a type of slag on the top of cooling liquid. Hot spots are convection currents. I just watched my eggs coagulate in the frying pan as I cooked them and I can imagine similarities between it and Pangea's reaction to heat too, IMO.

    Oceanic crust is made up of basalt, a much more dense type of rock than the continents, which are comprised of lighter granitic type rocks. Not necessarily granite itself, but assorted rock types made up of lighter minerals derived from granite. This is why ocean basins dive beneath the continents during tectonic collisions. Both oceanic (basalt) and continental rock (granitic) are lighter than the underlying rock layer and so "float" upon it. "Hot spots" are plumes of molten magma that has risen from deep below. It is different but somewhat related phenomenon than the molten uprisings that drives tectonic plates apart, either continental or oceanic. There are areas of the earth where plates are being pulled apart on the continent, one such area is the Great Rift Valley in Africa. However, most plate separations occur in the ocean basins.

    You got it right. Basalt, the dense glassy rock from volcanos is at the bottom of the sea, coming from the Mid atlantic ridge. What we are standing on right now is anthracite. This gets made in the subduction zones, which is what we call the Ring of Fire. as the plate edge gets pushed down into the mantle, it melts and mixes with seawater, which lowers the melting point and density. Very weird to think of granite and anthracite... you know, "bedrock," as if it were pumice stone, but that's how it is. The continental crust floats on top of the plates, we walk around on it, until the plates get subducted again millions of years from now, and more crust is added.

    “Deformities” as opposed to the only reference you’ve had in your short life? You realize there’s more science to it than “huh these fit like puzzle.” Right? They are portraying this for laypeople who couldn’t even begin to understand the intricacies of geological, paleontological, and archeological sciences. Or in a more simple way of putting it, it’s made for the dumber people on the subject. And so we are clear that’s ok, it’s ok to trust someone who’s done the research and taken to time to learn about something so well that neither You or I couldn’t hope to match them unless we did the same, rather than base my beliefs on my own presuppositions like most animals do. And you want to know the best part since I bother to actually listen and try to learn and understand the topic I actually learn something and I’m able to explore and delve somewhat into the topic on my own now that I have a set of bearings to work with. You should try it some time it’s rather fun and educational.

    You're not alone in noticing this. When I was around six or seven, I noticed the fit between South America and Africa. Being young I described it as "South America goes out where Africa goes in". It being the late 1950s, I was told that it was merely a coincidence. I was blown away when in my 20s I first heard of plate tectonics, proving that I was right, And not only one supercontinent, but a series of continents, reaching back billions of years. People thinking that masses of lands having once been massed together, goes back to at least the time of Francis Bacon. That's when the first reasonably accurate maps began to be produced and, like us, Bacon noticed how the continents seemed to fit like a puzzle. Interestingly, some scientists think that the process of plate tectonics has (just barely) begun to reverse, since they found what appears to be an infant subduction zone forming of fthe coast of Portugal and Spain, meaning we may be seeing the very first stirrings of the closure of the Atlantic. Already, Africa and Europe are being brought together since the Mediterranean Sea is closing. but all of this will happen over the next250 million years.

And then there's no credits for any of the work. Who did the cinematography? Who wrote the script? Who did all the research that obviously goes into a vid like this?

One cannot speculate what fits into what until one reverses all Continental Plate movements back in time to a specif time. Its about the World Coastlines then, not now. Also, subducting plates do not completely melt as stated, see work done by Karin Sigloch that also includes Slab Rollback.

    I'm confused regarding the comments about how horseshoe crabs can "only" be caught near Florida and the Gulf of Mexico. Anyone from New England should be very familiar with these ancient and interesting fellows. They're all over the shores that are sandy and (relatively) calm in places around New York City, Long Island, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cape Cod. One can find, literally, PILES of them during their mating season. One on its own is big, 7 clinging to each other is totally impossible to miss.

    I like this video as they present it as not fully proven. Some aspects have solid (no pun intended) evidence while some is hypothesis that they admit and present apposing theories. Some new findings suggest even the timeline of events may be different. Some researchers even suggest influence of planetary, meteor impact, and solar events. All very fascinating, but I think I would not have the patience to study it all.

    No, it is not. That is how science works. Data and evidence becomes part of the interpretation because is can be shown to be true. That takes time. And idea or hypothesis is just a guess or imaginative speculation. Science is about measurement and repeated reviews of the findings of others. That is why you can trust science to give the best interpretation of the facts and as new evidence arises the truth wins over dogma.
