Captain Robert Scott did not discover Continental Drift. The concept of Continental Drift was proposed by Abraham Ortelius in 1596, a concept that was further developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912.
Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, developed the concept of continental drift in 1912. He proposed that continents were once connected as a single supercontinent called Pangaea and have since drifted apart.
Supercontinent was first proposed in 1912 by the German meteorologist Alfred Wegener as a part of his theory of continental drift.

Alfred Wegener
German scientist Alfred Wegener (1880-1930) first proposed the theory of continental drift in 1912, but it was not widely accepted until the 1950s.
Auther Holmes is the Scientist who first proposed that theral convection in the mantle causes continental drift.

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of Continental Drift in 1912.
He predicted that convection currents within the earth's mantle are driven by radioactive heat might furnish the mechanism for the continental drift theory. -Lochie O'Brien and Jaidyn Tilbrook
The main problem with Wegners theory of continental drift was that at the time he proposed it he had no real proof.
