Expanding Earth Research

Plate tectonics is a theory that states that plates on the Earth's surface move as rigid bodies. GPS is a system that is working independently on the theoretical motions of these theoretical plates, which means that the motions of plates must be visible when studied by passive GPS receivers (if you don't think so, tell us). Some studies work with the so called plate-fixed (net rotation) reference frames, such as e.g. NAD83, that use GPS data, but state that the frame is plate-fixed - no plate motion is visible. My question is: Is it possible that one creates a plate-fixed frame for GPS? If you think so, please, describe the process. I repeat that GPS does not care about the reason why the passive receiver changed its position - so how can you fix your data to a theoretical motion of a plate?

As been already pointed out, Zealandia can be put together with South America:

The best explanation for the observed relations is Earth's rapid expansion since the Pangea break up. So I am asking, because according to the expansion, the fossils should be younger than we think today, maybe not, but it would be more elegant to link the evolution directly with the expansion.

Plate tectonics is a pseudoscientific belief. The northern edge of Zealandia perfectly fits the Andes! Based on 1) lines on the ridges, 2) oceanic floor ages and 3) perfect shape fit! Here you can follow my tweet with the perfect fit: https://twitter.com/jan_mestan/status/919320346112622592

Just made the calculations and it gives me 1.66, which is 5/3.

You make a gas giant from H and He. The center is of high density. Then you start to catch the material like Si, Fe or Ni. Such material creates a hard mantle around the dense center. What would happen after you remove the atmosphere above the mantle?

Have you ever heard of...?
