This is a schematic of Gondwana 150 million years ago (Mya) after Pangea separated into Laurasia, to the north and Gondwana to the south and the present day continents of South America, Africa, Australia and Antarctica have begun to split up. The dark blue to the upper left shows the expanding Atlantic Ocean which is beginning to form between South America and Africa. These southern hemisphere continents are rifting and beginning to separate from Antarctica. The sub-continent of India is also splitting away from Africa to begin its northeasterly journey.
