How many years did it take it take India to travel from Antarctica to collide with Asia?
India actually separated from the east side of Africa long after Africa-India separated from Antarctica. It left behind Madagascar and a long trail of small islands as it got further and further from Africa.
- Africa-India separated from Antarctica roughly 170 million years ago
- India separated from Africa roughly 110 million years ago
- India collided with Asia roughly 20 million years ago
You can estimate it yourself from the figures above.

When did Gondwanaland exist?
There was an early supercontinent called Pangaea, and this began to split into a northern (Laurasia) and a southern (Gondwana) parts about 500 Million years ago. Gondwana in its turn began to split up into its various continents about 170 - 120 million years ago. The opening of the S Atlantic perhaps 130 m years ago. With India heading N to collide with the Asian Plate, Australia splitting from Antarctica about 80 M years ago, and NZ splitting from Antarctica perhaps 120 M years ago +/- 50 M years.
What was Africa connected to millions of years ago?
Antarctica, India, and South America, in the single planetary continent called Pangaea.
When did India split from Africa?
Gondwana actually split circa 200 million years ago which was originally composed of Modern Antarctica, South America, Africa, India and Australia
What do coal beds in antarctica indicate?
The coal deposits in Antarctica are explained by Pangaea where Antarctica was located next to South America, Africa, Australia, and India.

Not for many years.
Travel Companion?
In my opinion PATHOFHEAVEN is the best travel agency in India . They have all over India packages and also all packages are wounderful expirience . They have many years of experience. They have pool resort also with swimming pool in middle of the forest with natural seenory

Antarctica is as old as earth itself.
What was Antarctica called in the past?
Pangaea was the original super-continent which broke up into Gondwanaland and Laurasia. Gondwanaland consisted of present day Africa, Antarctica, Australia, India and South America and began to break up about 250 million years ago. Antarctica was completely free of the other land masses by 30 million years ago.
Are there images of Antarctica with no ice?
No. Antarctica has been ice-covered for 35 million years.
