Insightful Animated Video Sums up 4.5 Billion Years of Earth’s History in 60 Minutes
Earth is estimated to be 4.5 billion years old. But even though scientists have closed in on our planet's age, it can be difficult to fully grasp such an astronomical number. To help us understand Earth's history, YouTube channel Kurzgesagt has released an animated video chronicling how everything has evolved since our planet was first formed. At 60 minutes-long, each second of the video represents about 1 million years.
