megangibson+FollowEarth’s Oldest Continents Are Falling Apart?!Turns out, even Earth’s OG continents aren’t forever! Scientists just found that the ancient crust under places like eastern China is slowly breaking down, thanks to wild tectonic plate drama. Imagine billion-year-old rock getting squeezed, stretched, and basically melted from below. The real kicker? Where a continent sits matters more than its age—edges near active plates are most at risk. This could change everything from mountains to where we find gold! #Geology #EarthScience #Continents #Science60Share
