science is science, earth science is study of earth(it's motions,revolution) Science is a Systematic, Comprehensive, Investigation and Exploration of Nature's Causes and Effects. Earth science is the study of the earth its structure, changes and history.

Examples of science trivia: How far is the earth from the sun? How hot is the sun? What is the temperature of the center of the earth? What are the cricket's "ears"?
Most religions provide a story about how the world was created - all these religious stories do no match up with the factual, observable evidence about how the world was created (the subject of Earth Science). Thus the development of Earth Science (indeed science in general) has lead to people falling away from belief in the religious explanations for things and sadly from religion itself.

Alfred Wegener did not receive any awards during his lifetime for his theory of continental drift. However, his ideas laid the foundation for the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which has since revolutionized the field of Earth science.
It proves the Plate Tectonics theory suggested by Alfred Wegener.

Alfred Wegener's theory of continental drift revolutionized our understanding of Earth's geological history by proposing that continents were once part of a supercontinent called Pangaea and have since drifted apart. This idea laid the groundwork for the modern theory of plate tectonics and provided a unifying explanation for various geological phenomena. Wegener's work fundamentally changed the way we view the Earth's dynamic processes and continues to influence geology and earth science today.
Alfred Wegener was a polar researcher from Germany. He was also a meteorologist and geologist. He proposed the theory of continental drift, and that the continents slowly drift around the earth on a lake of magma.
Alfred Wegener is famous for discovering plate tectonics. Basically, he discovered that plates make up the Earth like jigsaw pieces and these are continents.
They were joined together, then drifted apart to their current positions
Scientists still do not appear to understand sufficiently that all earth sciences must contribute evidence toward unveiling the state of our planet in earlier times, and that the truth of the matter can only be reached by combing all this evidence. ... It is only by combing the information furnished by all the earth sciences that we can hope to determine 'truth' here, that is to say, to find the picture that sets out all the known facts in the best arrangement and that therefore has the highest degree of probability. Further, we have to be prepared always for the possibility that each new discovery, no matter what science furnishes it, may modify the conclusions we draw.- Alfred L. WegenerThe Origins of Continents and Oceans
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. This theory laid the foundation for the modern theory of plate tectonics.
