@universeofourown: Pangea was a supercontinent that existed about 335 to 175 million years ago during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It was a single, massive landmass that combined nearly all of Earth’s land areas. Over time, due to plate tectonics, Pangea began to break apart, eventually forming the continents as we know them today. This drifting continues even now, causing continents to slowly move over millions of years. #pangea #alfredwegener #earth #nightscape #deepsky #stargazers #astrophotography #astrophoto #astronomy #jameswebbspacetelescope #andromedagalaxy #space #universe #jwstart #nightsky #stars #astrophotos #nightphotography #longexposure #optolong #nasa #nebula #cosmology #astrobackyard #spacephotography #spacephoto #hubble #milkyway #universe #spacex #astro #galaxy #photooftheday #andromeda
