The idea of that the continents were shifting was first observed by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 and further examined in the early 1900's and in the 1960's when the theory of plate tectonics were developed, scientists were able to understand it more clearly.
The continents are moving when they spread apart
Wegener couldn't explain why or how the continents moved
All the continents are moving in different directs but if you go to google images and type 'tectonic plate movement' at least one of those pictures will show what directions different continents are moving in

The German scientist, Alfred Wegener first proposed the continental drift theory.
Wegener couldn't explain why or how the continents moved
No, the continents are not moving back into the form of Pangea. The movement of the Earth's tectonic plates is complex and constantly changing. While some continents are moving closer together due to plate tectonics, the formation of a new supercontinent similar to Pangea is not predicted in the near future.
Moving
Continental Drift was an idea first proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1914. He fought with many other scientist's to get the idea around that the continents where moving.
