Maps of the Earth are illustrations of how we have visualized our planet.
Throughout our history, explorers and scientists have tried to answer the questions of "where are we?" and "where are we going?" Discover and explore the many meanings of maps.
The Earth is a dynamic planet and is rich with stories of its change. One
story is that of plate tectonics and how the Earth's surface is continually
shifting. Find out why the Earth is so restless and what causes earthquakes
to shake the ground and volcanoes to erupt with great force.
