Why did most scientists reject wegener theory for nearly a half century?
Most scientists rejected Wegener's theory of continental drift for nearly half a century because he lacked a plausible mechanism to explain how continents moved. Additionally, his ideas went against existing geological beliefs at the time, and he faced strong opposition from influential geologists who defended the prevailing theory of stationary continents. It wasn't until the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which provided a mechanism for the movement of continents, that Wegener's ideas gained widespread acceptance.

What was Alfred Wegner's theory and why was it rejected?
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, suggesting that Earth's continents were once joined together in a single landmass called Pangea and have since drifted apart. His theory was rejected because he could not provide a plausible mechanism for how the continents could move across the ocean floor. It was not until the discovery of plate tectonics that Wegener's ideas were accepted and incorporated into the scientific understanding of Earth's geology.

Many scientists rejected it because he lacked a plausible mechanism for how continents could move. It wasn't until the discovery of plate tectonics in the 1960s that Wegener's ideas gained widespread acceptance.
