>>11768411>Is the question regarding continental drift or plate tectonics?The latter.
>We can observe the continents moving today, date the oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges, and have evidence in strata that show continental drift (and thus the super continents) are a thing.We have these observations, but the models proposed as the mechanisms is dubious by the standards of other related scientific theories at the same physical scale (such as atmospheric science).
Besides these models, the other geological evidence I've seen often reduce to "look at map, puzzle pieces fit together!" tier. Doesn't mean there wasn't a drift, just that we have no rigorous model for it, therefore we can't make reliable predictions nor can we faithfully claim that Pangea was a real continent.
