Soul Cage's Magical Power
drive.google.com drive.google.com
Soul Cage dies, the power it wielded to keep the Mist Continent full of Mist is dispelled and the Mist leaves the continent at a rapid pace in it's absence.
Ergo, it's magical power causes the Mist to leave.
So?
So, welcome to the hollowed out dimensional core of Gaia, that houses Terra. We get a view of the whole space when Zidane and company enter Terra for the first time. I can use the Radius of Terra to derive the diameter of the Iifa Tree Root.
I'd love to use this scan to scale shit more directly, but I can't given the internal consistency between Gaia and Terra is kind of fucked using it.
Can use it to note that the size of the root extending to the Core is roughly the same as the one seen on the Surface of Gaia though.

So, summary?
Fusion is the Ultimate magic wielded by the Terran's. Garland is the one who oversees and casts it when they need to fuse worlds and renew their dying and aging one. The process goes on without a hitch barring the chance that the crystal of the planet Garland wants to fuse with Terra has already accumulated experience (a pure crystal has none).
Any rate?
The hologram is a historical documentation of the Fusion process (be it between Gaia and Terra or one of the many other previous Fusions Terra has undergone), much like everything else in the Oeilvert.
Relevance?
Its showing the event in real time.
How can I suggest that for sure?
The holographic model previously showcased sped up animation of the planet rotating while the moon revolved around it. Being a historical documentation of the Fusion process, both planets would have possessed a noticeable rotation around each planet's axis were the Fusion process actually shown to be sped up.
You can argue the scene that plays out in Memoria, being the memory of the event is the one actually in real time, but there's a few problems with that.
Namely the fact that the scenes we view in Memoria never advance (in the case of Gaia/Terra Fusion) or behave in the manner they did in the game proper (and we're treated to events we'd already been shown in game proper like the destruction of Alexandria and Madain Sari). At best, Memoria just codifies all of the memories in snap shots of the events as opposed to giving us a real time play back of how they occurred in full or at all.
So, that said, on with the calc.

Nothing new, just some rounding error and image quality.
Doesn't hurt to remember that this trickles to Alexander, which leads it to trickling on over to Bahamut on account that Bahamut did moderately endure Alexander's Divine Judgment for a while until he was hit by the entirety of its payload.

Planet Movement Speed = 6,243,580 m/s
Garland's Fusion of Terra and Gaia Yield = 211,439,947,557,753,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules or 50.535 ninatons or 50,535 yottatons

Half that being?
Distance Root Traveled = 305,071.691 meters

Zidane outpaces the roots, thus...
