One key factor that stopped Wegener from fully proving his theory of continental drift was the lack of a plausible mechanism to explain how continents could move. Additionally, Wegener faced resistance from the scientific community who were skeptical of his ideas based on the limited evidence he presented at the time. Lastly, the technological advancements necessary to provide compelling evidence for his theory, such as satellite mapping and deep-sea drilling, were not available during Wegener's time.
The members of the KKK, or Ku Klux Klan, often used various pseudonyms or pen names to conceal their identities, especially during their activities. However, specific pen names are not universally documented, as membership and practices varied widely across different chapters and time periods. The KKK is primarily known for its secretive nature and the use of hoods and robes rather than distinct pen names.
