The Historical past of the Earth (All 4.5 Billion Years) in 1 Hour: A Million Years Coated Each Second

From Kurzge­sagt comes the his­to­ry of our plan­et in a single hour. They write: “Earth is 4.5 bil­lion years previous — which is approx­i­mate­ly the identical period of time it took us to cre­ate this video. We’ve scaled the com­plete time­line of our Earth’s life into our first ani­mat­ed film! Each sec­ond exhibits a few mil­lion years of the planet’s evo­lu­tion. Hop on a musi­cal practice trip and expe­ri­ence how lengthy a bil­lion years actual­ly is.” Beneath, you’ll find the time­stamps for the geo­log­ic peri­ods cov­ered within the video.
