The Man Who Saw the Earth Move

<p><strong>The Continents Are Moving. No One Believed Him.</strong></p><p>When Alfred Wegener first looked at a map he saw a broken puzzle. The coastlines of Africa and South America seemed to fit perfectly-a clue that led him to a radical conclusion: the Earth's landmasses were once fused into a single supercontinent <strong>Pangea</strong> that drifted apart over millions of years.</p><p>In 1915 Wegener published his theory of <strong>continental drift</strong> backed by matching fossils identical rock formations and ancient climate evidence. But the established scientific community rejected him ridiculing his ideas as the ramblings of a dreamer. A meteorologist by trade he was branded an outsider and died years before his vision was finally proved right.</p><p>This is the dramatic story of Alfred Wegener's life-part pioneering Arctic explorer part revolutionary scientist-and the decades-long scientific battle that saw his rejected theory of continental drift ultimately transform into the bedrock of modern geology: <strong>Plate Tectonics</strong>.</p><p>Discover the truth that shook the foundations of science and the man who saw the world move when everyone else saw only stone.
