The document summarizes the theory of plate tectonics and the existence of the supercontinent Pangaea. It describes how early scientists noticed that continents seemed to fit together like puzzle pieces. It then discusses how Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift and Pangaea in the early 1900s, but his colleagues rejected it due to a lack of evidence. Finally, it outlines how the theory of plate tectonics was developed in the 1960s based on findings of sea floor spreading and magnetic stripes on the ocean floor.
