3 billion years.
The supercontinent Pangaea existed around 335 to 175 million years ago during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras.
The ancient supercontinent that existed when Earth's plates were together is called Pangaea. This supercontinent is believed to have formed about 300 million years ago and began to break apart around 175 million years ago.
Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed about 300 million years ago, before breaking apart to form the continents we see today. Scientists used evidence such as the fit of continents like South America and Africa, similarities in rock formations, and distribution of fossils to support the theory of Pangaea.
How long has the nation of Tibet Existed?
Scientists estimate that the Earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago. This estimate is based on dating of rocks and meteorites, as well as analysis of the solar system's formation.
It all depends on what you consider young. Scientists estimate that the Earth is 4.5 billion years old which seems like a very long time to have existed. But, considering that our planet will probably continue to exist for another 7.5 billion years until the sun reaches Red Giant stage and engulfs us, the Earth still has a long way to go.
Scientists estimate that the Earth is around 4.5 billion years old based on radiometric dating of rocks and meteorites. This estimate comes from studying the age of the oldest rocks on Earth and moon samples collected during space missions.
Santa has existed for as long as people have believed in him... many hundreds of years.
No one invented current. It existed long before it was 'discovered' by scientists. But, after its discovery, it took a very long time to understand what it was. For example, Benjamin Franklin though it was some sort of mysterious fluid. It wasn't until the secrets of the atom were unlocked, scientists were able to describe it in terms of charge flow.
Yes, Cro-Magnon humans lived during the Upper Paleolithic period, around 40,000 to 10,000 years ago. Pangaea, the supercontinent, existed about 335 to 175 million years ago, long before the time of Cro-Magnons.
No, sugar did not cause slavery. Slavery existed long before the United States existed, or the Americas were discovered by Europeans. In fact, slavery existed long before the European countries existed.
The first person to discover rocks was not a specific individual, as rocks have existed on Earth long before humans. Geologists and scientists study rocks to learn about the Earth's history and processes.
