How did Mount Everest form?

Did you know the highest point on Earth used to be at the bottom of the ocean? It’s true! Join Mira and Finn on a wild science adventure to uncover the unbelievable secrets of Mount Everest! Imagine standing over five miles up in the freezing sky, looking down at the snow, and finding an ancient seashell! How did ocean creatures end up in the clouds? Discover how the Earth's crust is like a giant cracked egg made of moving puzzle pieces called tectonic plates. Millions of years ago, the Indian plate zoomed across an ancient ocean and crashed right into Asia! This massive slow-motion collision squished the ocean floor and pushed it all the way up into the sky to create the mighty Himalayan mountains. The craziest part? The continent crash isn't over! Mount Everest is actually still growing a little bit taller every single year. But there is an epic tug-of-war going on! While the Earth pushes the mountain up, giant frozen rivers of ice called glaciers are slowly wearing it back down. Get ready to learn about freezing weather, ancient fossils, and giant rocky collisions!
