MISSION -- THE GONDWANA RECONSTRUCTION

Five continents once fitted together. Drag them into position. Toggle four evidence layers: coastline geometry, Mesosaurus distribution, glacial striations, and matching rock sequences. India fits in two places -- the decoy is honest geology. (MS-ESS2-3)

THE LAW

The coastlines are one witness. You have four.

RECONSTRUCTION -- GONDWANA RECONSTRUCTION

Drag the plates to reconstruct the supercontinent -- toggle evidence layers to build your case

DEEP TIME -- 4.6 BILLION YEARS

FIXTURES -- REAL EARTH CASES

EVENT RECORD

no events recorded yet

PROVENANCE

Fixture: Gondwana Reconstruction
Real case: Gondwana supercontinent, ~300-180 Ma
Citation: Torsvik & Cocks, 2013, Earth-Science Reviews
No generator (D10): the fixture library is the real Earth.

Coastline geometry: Bullard, Everett & Smith, 1965, Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society

Mesosaurus distribution: Wegener, 1912; distribution data from Colbert, 1973

Glacial striations: Du Toit, 1937, Our Wandering Continents

Matching rock sequences: Veevers, 2004, Gondwana Master Basin

SEAM HANDLES

Geo Forge: Plate boundaries from this reconstruction map to Geo Forge's seismic/volcanic hazard bands — the Himalayan collision zone, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and the East African Rift are all seams from this assembly

Climate Engine: Continental positions control ocean circulation patterns — Gondwana's breakup opened the Drake Passage, which established the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and initiated Antarctic glaciation
