Australia is the fastest-moving continent on Earth, shifting seven centimetres north-northeast each year—almost twice as fast as your fingernails grow. It is already colliding with Southeast Asia, and some models place it inside a new supercontinent 200 to 300 million years from now.

1+ week, 4+ day ago   (1600+ words) The seven-centimetre motion and active collision are measured geology. Australia’s place in Amasia 200 to 300 million years from now is a model-dependent scenario, not a destination forecast.
