Reply to comment by Unleashtheducks in TIL that only about 4% of the Earth's surface has two points on opposite sides of the world that are both on land by A_1337_Canadian
It would actually be interesting to see how this number has changed over time (and how it will change). With Pangea, it would've been something like 0% since the land was all on one side of the world. Maybe this number will grow in the future?? (Like millions of years haha)

It should rise. As the Atlantic expands the blue will move right and yellow will move left, so eventually North America will be opposite Africa as we get close to forming a new Pangea when the Pacific disappears.
