Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift was largely rejected due to a lack of a plausible mechanism to explain how continents could move across the Earth's surface. He proposed that continents plowed through the oceanic crust, which seemed implausible to many scientists. Additionally, his ideas conflicted with the prevailing theories of the time, such as land bridges and static continents. The discovery of plate tectonics in the 1960s eventually provided the necessary mechanisms for continental movement, validating Wegener's ideas long after their initial rejection.
