A simulated map of Pangea Ultima, a supercontinent projected to form in 250 million years. The map shows the predicted arrangement of continents, with a vast landmass dominating the globe and the Atlantic Ocean significantly reduced. Labels indicate continents, the Pacific Ocean, subduction zones, and seafloor spreading ridges. This visualization illustrates the ongoing process of plate tectonics and the Earth’s dynamic surface.
