Wegener's hypothesis (1912) is called the continental drift, in which he proposed the hypothesis that Earth's continents were moving, and that 200 MYA, there was only a big landmass called the Pangaea. Too bad he didn't have enough facts to back up this guess, so people thought he had a drug overdose or somethings and laughed him off.
Wegener's hypothesis later developed into the modern theory of plate tectonics: the lithosphere is divided into plates that are constantly moving, pumping into each other and causing earth quakes.
this is easy! I LEARNED IT IN SCIENCE! WERGNER DICOVERED IT. WEGNERS EARLIER THEORY OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT WAS REEXAMMINED AND A NEW THEORY WAS BORN ............................ THE THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS
Hess checked his hair and noticed it was the same as wegners so it was that their theorys were the same
Scientist rejected Wegners hypothesis of continental drift at first because he did not have enogh evidence to support his theory. He failed to provide a suitable mechanism that could cause the continents to move.
Alfred Wegner's continental drift theory was ignored because he didn't have enough proof to show everyone that tectonic plates were moving. The supercontinent Pangaea sounded like a big fantasy to everyone back then.

The main problem with Wegners theory of continental drift was that at the time he proposed it he had no real proof.
Somewhere in Euroasia....
Wegner was the man who established the theory of "continental drift" in 1912

In the year 1911 a German meteorologist noticed that the contents looked like the fit in together. Wegner (Veg-ner) did some research regarding the subject. Wegners theory states that parts of the Earths crust slowly drift atop a liquid core. Landforms fossils and climates helped support his theory. There were two big flaws in Wegners theory; there was no feasible explanation for the cause of Continental drift because you can be on top of something liquid and not move and that there was no evidence that continents plowed through the ocean basin. No one believed Wegner's theory. 20 years later Wegner died and then after another 20 years we developed the technology and proved Wegners theory.
YEs, Alfred WEGners theory was accpeted until later BECause This Question IS BEing ASked to aN ELEveN yEar OLdBecaysE sHE wANTs To Know :CAN A THEORY ALREADY ACCEPTED , BE REJECTED LATER WHEN A CONTRADICTION IS FOUND?THANKSI Appreciate if you would help.ByebyeX

The hypothesis you are looking for is continental drift.
