I have taken up again my Paleo-Earth project. I wanted to thoroughly 
test out Wilbur (http://www.fracterra.com/wilbur.html) for this and I am 
rather satisfied.

These images are a first approximation of what I want to obtain. They 
depict Earth during approximately the Middle Silurian period, about 420 
million years ago.

The equatorial view shows the making of Euramerica: the collision of the 
Laurentia-Greenland and the Baltica continents, closing the Iapetus 
Ocean and forming the Caledonian mountain range between them, 
approximately N-S here in the centre of the image. To the north, and 
separated by the Ural Ocean, is the Siberia Continent, slowly moving 
southwards.

The polar view shows Gondwanaland, the huge continent formed by South 
America, Africa, Australia and India. Obviously, there are some problems 
around the pole to solve ;-)

In space, the time travel transport vehicle is shown.
