5 billion years ago, Earth's tectonic plates began colliding beneath the surface, creating enormous pressure that forced land upward into mountains.

love the cross section visual but the 5 billion year figure is off - Earth itself is only about 4.5 billion years old, so plates couldn't have been colliding before the planet even formed

Under intense heat and pressure, diamonds, gems, and other precious stones formed. Every single mountain was created due to this. Everest is growing at 2mm per year. Many ancient sea creatures, such as trilobite fossils, are found on the tops of Everest and Atlas. *Rock salt

Yeah that's a cool concept but 5 billion years is bs

Formation of Himalayas, vanishing of Tethys sea was all because of this Tectonic plates movements.

Trái Đất mới có khoảng 4,5 tỷ năm tuổi thôi, 5 tỷ năm trước thì nó còn chưa hình thành nữa bác ơi.

Earth is constantly changing. From Pangea to Gondwanaland, now we have Australia to Africa. Africa and Iceland are splitting in half as we speak due to geological activity.

5 миллиардов лет назад Земли еще не сущестовало. Тем более - суши.

Thank you for promoting real science, not religious dogma. Your timeline is a bit off, though. Hope your health has improved.

We’re witnessing this now in certain locations on earth and it doesn’t take millions of years. A good example is the ongoing subduction of the Indian plate under the Himalayas causing the mountains to continue to break height records and collapsing infrastructure in India.

Were you there?

That’s pretty cool

tectonic plates were basically arguing until mountains came out

Doubt that.

It’s easy to show this in AI . But it doesn’t look like this is what happened

Or it happens every cyclical pole shift.

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Nope

We are going to have one hit in the depths of the Ocean away from the Ring of Fire because of the reverberations and pressures on the North American plate. I'm still watching the field of play to try and narrow it down ☺️

Nope.

5 b how much time its will continue without us in endless future

@elonmusk yes ! Make a geography book open w grok Grok, marvelous tool of exact

Nature's raw power is truly something else.

لو كان هناك اصطدام نفس ما قلت لا كان تكوين الجبل نفس تكوين الارض المحيطه به !!! فكروا قليلا

Great Guess.

Billions of years 🙄

@grok is this true?

Earth end

The universe is no more than 7000 years old.

Earth itself is only about 4.54 billion years old, meaning tectonic plates and mountains did not exist 5 billion years ago. During that period, Earth was just a fiery, chaotic ball of swirling gas, dust, and cooling magma.
