I think Pangaea Ultima shuld be complete 200 millon years from now. animalAM7 —Preceding unsigned comment added by AnimalAM7 (talk • contribs) 00:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Most of this stuff seems like a guess. Does anyone have any citations to add for some of these statements? Brandonrush 19:58, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

This idea goes against what I'm being taught in my current geology class (Fall 2007). This information needs to be disseminated to the wider geologic community for study and debate, as the current train of thought being passed on to students in my area is that the new "Pangaea" will form by eliminating the Pacific ocean basin/spreading of the Atlantic. sm32404 14:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.176.193.141 (talk)

Maybe this page would make a good citation and image for the article. Orthografer 18:22, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Worse than a guess, it ignores known facts on the ground today. The most glaring ommission is the African Rift. Africa cannot remain whole in the future. An educated guess is that the African rift will split Africa at least from Ethiopia to Malawi, and open a new sea, and which will also split Israel and Lebanon off from Asia. The mid-Atlantic ridge is the most powerful ridge of all, it is the one that should be assumed to dominate, that is driving South America into Australia. North America seems to not to be driven West, but at a slip-fault (San Andreas) at its margin. Africa and India should continue to drive North, driving Siberia over the arctic. The Antarctic might well continue to drive into the Pacific, which may get in the way of South America driving West, and it may split at the mid-Atlantic ridge. There is ample room for guesses. There is no room for ignoring facts on the ground. Bbharim (talk) 22:22, 31 December 2007 (UTC)bbharim

[edit] Amasia

References in the Future is Wild to "Pangaea II" are actually referencing to Amasia. I wonder how many of the other "Appearances in culture" are doing the same thing. My guess is a lot. Neitherday (talk) 06:58, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sun's fate

These statesments about sun and its fate, and becoming a white dwarf should be remove. This article is about the continents, and they obviously have nothing to do with the article.--Freewayguy (Webmail) 23:11, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
