@onlmaps I kind of want a 3d interactive version. The distortion on the poles makes it hard to understand for me 😅 @onlmaps I've heard it said that the crust of the Earth is thinner relatively than the paint on a globe. Our solid ground is the congealed skim on a puddle. |
@onlmaps so on that modelling, Pangea either never existed at all, or at best was remarkably short lived?
