I'm pretty sure there is another possibility called Pangea Proxima, which is very similar to the concept of Pangea Ultima, but essentially, Alaska would crash into Siberia and then via introversion North America would drift back to join with Europe and South America in the same way you described in your graphic _for Pangea Ultima_
Pangea Ultima is actually not the model that they show! That's Pangea Proxima. Pangea Ultima refers to a slight variation where Australian and Antarctica remain separate.
There's a mistake in the intro. Rifting is NOT the primary driving force for oceanic tectonics. The subducted crust is converting to denser eclogite and pulling the oceanic plate down with it; rifting is primarily passive. See: the slab-pull hypothesis
idea: isn't it already a supercontinent? I mean, Beringia is underwater, but Africa, Eurasia, and America are already connected, and usually continental shelves are what matter. Australia and Antarctica aren't connected, but they aren't part of some Pangea Proxima models either.
i would like it if you could say what kind of projection you use whenever you show maps of the earth =) i was first very confused when you said the gibraltar subduction zone is a really tiny one because i assumed you used the most commonly used mercantor-projection and thought that the gibraltar one should therefor be much bigger than it looked. hope you read this as constructive criticism.
I got a question... before the Suez canal was built, wasn't there a small connection between Africa to Middle East? And that due to lowered sea level during the Ice ages, there was the Bearing Land Bridge connectiong Americas to Asia.. ... wouldn't that make most of the continents (except Australia & Antaritica) be connected? ...Why would that not be considered a super continent?
So I recently found out out that rolypoly bugs aren't actually bugs but little land shrimp. Am I the only one amazed that an aquatic species made it to land? How did that happen? Will it be the next Zoidberg?

Go to Google Earth (make sure it's in satellite mode). Look at the Hawaiian islands. Then start scrolling west. Note the change of the various underwater islands (seamounts). Keep following them until you reach... And that's why predicting where things will be isn't just a simple "follow the current direction". The same hotspot continued to move and made the Hawaiian islands. And right now, the Lōʻihi Seamount is the main contender for a new island in about a thousand years or so.
Pangea Ultima 🏞️is the best of them all, Here's why... Usually, the central part of every supercontinent is dry and arid, covered in vast deserts. But this is not the case with this forbidden donut, It has vast Indian Ocean/lake, right in it's centre, Providing moisture to the central region. If it forms it's going to be the Greenest Supercontinent of them all... It will be quite a sight🌄
No, Gondwana was the latest! It broke up 140ma, in two! SA and AF and AB came to form one, AN, AU, and IN form a second. However if you count Laurasia, then it was the latest. It broke into North America and Eurasia about 80-60mya.
Amazing to think that humans are the first (and probably the last) creatures to appreciate and/or understand this phenomenon for the longest time. And probably the only ones looking forward for the next continental configuration
That doesn't mean the Earth will be colder as the Sun will be outputting more energies in that time. An increase of about 5°c in the next 220 millions years (more or less). That doesn't sound much, but it's a huge diffrerence! So maybe it will be still warm enough to be around! Fun fact: The sun will have made a full orbit around the galaxie and we will be at the same relative point in the galaxie as we are now.
What I don't understand is how the same plate can be moving in different directions at different spots, unless that's a product of the spherical earth. Look at the african plate, it is moving east, south, and north?
Im no geologist, but... Wouldn't the Pacific Plate be one of the oldest, most undisturbed plates on the planet? What could we learn if we drilled into it? Did we? Just a few thoughts.
If amisa formed the giant ocean would incredibly violent. The sea around Antarctica now already has 30 meter waves on a regular basis. There's no land masses to stop it as it swirls around the continent. Just imagine if there was nothing to stop it at the equator

Oh wow, nice video. I've always been interested in this topic.
I would love to see how the human species deals with a new supercontinent. Or even to see how we deal with any large scale event like that.
You assume we won't ha
Isaac Arthur has a great set of series on RUclips on dealing with things like that (and much, much more).
ruclips.net/channel/UCZFipeZtQM5CKUjx6grh54g
Considering that the process is so slow, nobody would be dealing with anything new or interesting at any one time.
That's if we're everglades around that long

There's a mistake in the intro. Rifting is NOT the primary driving force for oceanic tectonics. The subducted crust is converting to denser eclogite and pulling the oceanic plate down with it; rifting is primarily passive. See: the slab-pull hypothesis
There's also the East Africa and Jordan Valley rift zones.
Not to mention that when one landmass bumps into another, there will be a reverberation that affects the motion of all other landmasses
idea: isn't it already a supercontinent? I mean, Beringia is underwater, but Africa, Eurasia, and America are already connected, and usually continental shelves are what matter. Australia and Antarctica aren't connected, but they aren't part of some Pangea Proxima models either.
