Interactive Map Reveals How Your Hometown Moved Over Earth During Millions of Years
A new interactive map allows anyone to trace their hometown's geographic shifts through millions of years of Earth's history. Entitled Ancient Earth, the site is easy to use. Users simply begin by dropping a pin in a location of their choice. They can then choose from a range of dates stretching back to 750 million years ago and observe how the landmasses carrying their location have shifted, combined, and separated on Earth's tectonic plates.
