Really wish immortality was a thing. I'd love to see what our planet has in store in the next 100 million years
You would get bored waiting
You would not want immortality you would want time travel so you can go ahead or go back
What you don’t think of is if you have immortality then any family members you get to watch die any kids or wife you may have you will watch them die anyone you are friends with or anyone you meet over that 100 million years anyone you grow close to or love you will watch them grow old and die
@@silentservant_ sure there is. Tell me how that works out for you.
I’d climb Mount Everest then
Realizing just how many changes our earth went through is so overwhelming and these guys do such a good job presenting such topics.
It will soon get rid of us
Think about the star system that was here for billions of years before it went nova creating the solar system and earth
I wouldn’t call it overwhelming. Earth is older than we think it is. So is mankind
Like what I call the "cracklin ❄️ 🌍 " intro
Few know about snowball earth 🌍.
@@ultima99xib we will get rid of ourselves.. we can't control earth.. and earth can't control us...
We have watched several of the videos in this series, but today, as we were transfixed by this one, it suddenly struck me how incredibly difficult (even with computers) it must be to accumulate, organize & edit all the textual & visual information, to weave it together so seamlessly to tell the story so well.
All the breathtakingly beautiful images of sky, ocean, Earth, together with high quality 3D animation, and an equally high quality narrative & narration synergistically produce the most
compelling, interesting, & informative documentaries ever, imho.
Thank you!!! Well done!!! 👍👍
The quality of these productions never ceases to amaze me. Truly wouldn't be out of place on the BBC. Keep up the good work!
So just think about how overpaid staff at the bbc are....in fact
Couldn't agree more.
But it hits different beats than BBC and I feel like he doesnt treat every viewer as a 7th grader the way those shows do
BBC wouldn't touch this as not something they could make woke. Unless, just like they made anne boleyn black, they could do the same for Darwin on the Beagle.
@@rogerthedodger5788 Cheers for adding a mental right wing spin on my completely non-political comment.
This is what CZcams was made for, utmost quality upload 👌👌👌 ( Top 5 Channel for me )
And cat videos. 😂
No it was made to expose conspiracies lol
It’s an advert App, with short contents.
It was made for people to upload personal videos. I used it in 2006
@johnnytheprick English, i just changed the font 👌
These documentaries are so professionally produced, and so informative! I feel like I'm a kid, exploring and learning about the wide universe for the first time when I watch them. You see, I was taken-in at an early age by "young earth creationist" religious thoughts that simplified Earth's "origins" and "history" into a laughable mythology inherited from the Mesopotamian cultural speculations and traditions. Watching and learning from your documentaries makes me feel like I am catching up on all the things I should have learned decades ago in my life. Thank you for presenting your amazing videos to everyone. This channel is incredible!
Isn't it fascinating? I've thought all my life the real stuff is way more cool than the religious story version. Glad you made it here! :)
Glad to have you on board!
I never understood, and never will, for that matter, why some religious people feel their faith threatened by science. Science does not contradict it, it should only make their belief more spectacular. I wish some fundamental Christians could work their brains around this concept. But oh well, I guess because I am not religous I cannot think the way those people do.
Mmm the time I had with the creationists, new agers, shamans, monks, imams, sheiks, ashrams etc was far more interesting, memorable, and ultimately inspiring then my time at...physics class....
Personally science is bloated with big words to compensate for the idiocy of "REDISCOVERING" stuff
It's as if gravity didn't exist until newton....
An archer does what a sniper does without math... And they can still hit the target from range...
Science has it's uses, but ultimately it just sounds to mechanical... It's not as bad as say, computer languages lol
It's one of those subject matters that goes out of its way to mimic the language of lawyerese, or corporate speech to hyperinflate it's complexities by requiring "educations" to learn about the world around you.
It's an old game...
@johnnytheprick Always Question Science... that is what Science is... questioning things, finding proofs, changing theories to fit findings, challenge your concepts. religion on the other hand is pretty much "This is how it is... believe it, it is the truth and never changes"
The Atlantic Ocean is more 110 inches wider now than when my grandmother was born . That’s measurable . . That’s enough to prove plate tectonics.
I'm sorry but "the prehistoric allsea" is the best title to ever be used. Everyone retire we can all go home. Humanity has peaked
Imagine how much cross-referencing you have to do to make a map of plate movements by using magnetically polarized rocks as a guide.
Which, given polar reversals, renders the idea we actually mapped shit, moot.
@@Vicus_of_Utrecht Except you're completely wrong.
Pole reversals wouldn't mean shit since the whole planet experiences it. It would create bands that would be fairly easy to map out once you do a little math.
plans for this evening have been revised:
Get lots of food, sit comfortably and watch the new History of the Earth.
Agree!
You have your priorities wrong. Sit comfortably and watch, then food, then watch again.
Absolutely. Great comment.
@@pdsnpsnldlqnop3330 Lol. You're both right.
As you should 😌
This answers a number of questions I've had since college in the early 80s. Science progresses while the rest of my life took me away from my questions. These productions are the perfect mix of information, graphics, killer satellite photos, and both deep past and "deep" future. Enjoying these past episodes.
This is what the Discovery Channel once was.
Your videos are of exceptional quality. They create a cozy feeling inside and bring me back to my childhood, when every Sunday morning I was watching nature documentaries with my parents. I like the narrator a lot.
Absolutely fascinating, as always.
Edit: "compared to their charismatic continental counterparts" (at 28:08) is a delightful bit of alliteration.
You aren't as frequent in the comments as cuban-american guy, but still, seeing you under the videos i like is somewhat normal.
In other words - hello, my CZcams neighbour

There's 4 primary lunar phases of roughly 7 day (~7.4 days) each thus 7-day weeks + 4 weeks in a 'mOOnth'. Lunar year of 354 days + 7 day week + 4 days = 365 day solar y ear. Roman Calendar's 7 thirty-one day months + 4 thirty day + February's 28 (7x4).

I, too, enjoyed the alliterative achievements of this author!
I've been reading book on microbiology and as I read it I literally hear your voice reading it in my head
You're smoking that good good huh?
I believe that is called "schizophrenia"
@@inferno9924 I believe it can also be called "matching a voice in your memory to something similar you just watched/listened to". Have you ever, say, watched something, then read part of a book, and suddenly one of the characters "sounds" (in your head) like a similar character in the TV show? Like you're suddenly reading the lines in the actor's voice? Like that.
(Or, similarly, have you ever watched/listened to something interesting by somebody with an accent, and then found yourself accidentally DOING that accent for a bit afterwards, without meaning to? I've done both. :P)
@@inferno9924have you ever looked into the possibility that might have anauralia? It’s the inability to imagine sound.
This content is so far above the quality of most channels on CZcams that I am shocked and grateful that I stumbled upon it.

Thinking of how life evolved on Earth makes me wonder if a planet with much thicker oceans and no dry land would even be _able_ to evolve life as our planet had, since most breakthroughs involved the shallows. An interesting thing to investigate if we ever make it that far.
Hydrothermal Vents are a thing
Life is probably everywhere. Intelligent life doesn't exist anywhere
Hydrothermal vents may have spawned life, and/or they may have acted as the sanctuary for life during the great oxidation event and/or during the time(s) the earth was covered in ice.
@@ch1pnd413 except all that is speculation
@@JaKingScomez speculation with hard evidence becomes a solid theory lol 😝
I just love how documentaries give you a sense of the world around you in a way that you can't possibly experience in everyday life
Joe, that "buckle all but the strongest pressurized craft" @14:17 really aged like a fine wine.
"all but" being applicable
Thank you so much for making this channel! As a person who grew up with cristian indoctrination, going to cristian schools I've always wanted to learn the real history of our little blue speck. Thank you so much!
F two sides of the same coin
It's nice to see so many people are entertained with something properly educational. I feel very fortunate to have been raised near the ocean.
This is the good shit, love everything you and your team put out on all your channels. Y'all's dedication to education and production value is unrivaled.
Yes, good shit! 😂
Amazing shit❤️

I would suggest the term, "the good stuff". Using scatological terms... seems so uneducated and un-educational.
I have watched thousands of videos on history, geography, physics, etc. but this channel really presents information in a unique and amazing way. 10/10!!!
I honestly find it amazing when a channel has nothing but praise in their comment section.
My absolute favourite CZcams channel at the moment. Great combination of factual information, and atmosphere from the ethereal music and contemplative narration - love it!
Imagine the creatures that may have lived in these all encompassing oceans.
For 800 million years it's been us, before us it was bacteria, before bacteria there was nothing for 2.5 billion years there was nothing
I just lost two cousins to depression but hearing your voice helps me thanks for doing something that you never intended to do
Your narration is so well written and evocative
Thanx history of the earth. I became very interested in programs like this. I was very young and I used to come home from school and couldn’t wait to tune into the Cosmos with Carl Sagan. I always dreamed about traveling from the beginning as it evolved through time to what’s going to be (who knows) it’s exciting just the same.
This is one of my favorite channels, hands down. Amazing production quality and research put into this. Keep it up!!
I'm annoying everyone in my life by repeatedly recommending this channel. The quality is astounding
These videos always cover so, so much more than the titles indicate. The work you put in is astounding, and each video truly is special !
Wow. Just WOW!... this series is beautiful. What an extraordinary planet we inhabit. Thanks to ALL the scientists who decipher the story. Utterly WOW! ❤
The phrase mentioned at 25m is Allochthonous Terrane, see also Taconic Orogeny. Would love to see the author’s source list so as to deep dive further on this fascinating topic.
"Orogeny is the primary mechanism by which mountains are formed on continents. An orogeny is an event that takes place at a convergent plate margin when plate motion compresses the margin. An orogenic belt or orogen develops as the compressed plate crumples and is uplifted to form one or more mountain ranges."

Huh, there's a word for everything isn't there?
Here's to the 'History of the Earth', may it never end!
A captivating narration for an original subject (ancient seas instead of ancient continents), well illustrated by wonderful pictures, many of them taken in Mauritius island were I am lucky to live !
this one brang me back to when i was like maybe 3 or 4 and discovered documentaries for the first time, those ones were always really calming and while is fresh off the press this one feels just the same, great work!
Brought.
Brang is stupid.
If you're wondering what Panthalassa means, I comes from the Greek:
Pan: All or Everything
Thalassa: The Abyss or The Deep
Ohh and the Currents around Antarctica are known as the Roaring Forties, The Frightful Fifties and the Shrieking Sixties! They stopped voyagers from reaching the Antarctic Shores for thousands of years until we built toughly hulled ships with powerful engines or strong sails!
This astrophysicist was pleasantly surprised by the introduction :) Great explanation!
Yay! Picture of my country Mauritius and our underwater waterfall at 24:36 😄🇲🇺
i wanted a tour of earth's ancient superoceans. much time was spent talking about other features of the cosmos and and how storms raged across earth in it's early stages of existence as a planet.
@Repent to Jesus Christ Repent to Jesus Christ no.
I thought I was the only one who found this an utterly disjointed cavalcade of B-roll
Thank you so much for uploading! I’ve been waiting! I love this so much! I’ve been struggling with anxiety a lot these days but your videos always calm me down. Also it’s exactly the content I’m interested in and I’m learning a lot. Thank you so much! I can’t imagine how much effort goes into making one of those. You’re amazing!
They calm me down too! Love this channel, so fascinating.
@johnnytheprick I got diagnosed with multiple chemical sensitivity and my life changed completely.
@johnnytheprick as I said I have multiple chemical sensitivity which means I’m very sensitive to smells especially chemical ones. My anxiety is almost constant. Especially when I’m outside.
Just found this channel. Such a presentation with relaxing voice, and emphasis on some of the words that was said. Ambient music is phenomenon.
Wonderful work!
This is a superb presentation. Usually, I get annoyed at incomplete, inaccurate drivel that passes for scientific information on CZcams. No more disappointment ... I am subscribed.
Many thanks to the combined thought and information behind this production.
I’ve just stumbled across your channel and I’m not even half way through this great video, and it’s an instant sub with all notifications turned on and I can’t wait to watch more.
I’ve been reading through the comments too and this looks like a five star channel with good educational information for me to learn from, so thank you for a brilliant well produced upload. I can’t wait to watch more 🤓
@johnnytheprick haha I see your point, personally I’d say it’s all nonsense because I don’t believe in the man made religion in the first place.
@johnnytheprick I only believe in Santa, the rest is all rumours!
Every upload of yours is an instant watch! Top notch quality as always!
Quality content is the main thing that keeps us watching your videos again. This is a very well crafted and well made video.Feeling so inspired and positive after this video, thank you!
This is a great channel with top shelf productions. I've been telling everyone I know that enjoys learning about it
Yo!! This is exactly the type of channel I’ve been needing! Your channel is gonna help me a ton with research im doing for a fantasy world I’m making hehe
@@FutureBoyWonder have you ever made a fantasy world? If you don’t at least slightly understand a lot about why the world is the way it is, everything can feel just off enough to ruin the world you create
A well made documentary. Certainly worth the watch and indeed educational. Thank you.
I can't comprehend how much effort is must have taken to produce work of this quality. Beautifully put together and filled with Correct Science...super good work.
The more of these documentaries I watch blows my mind just trying to figure out the time that has past since Earth's formation. it's just so unfathomable I honestly cannot get my head around it.
Hasn't there ALWAYS been a superocean? I mean don't we have one right now? Yes, we've subdivided it into entities with different names, but technically they're all connected and form one giant superocean.
Most of the Southern Hemisphere is superocean- only South America extends much below 45S and Antarctica is mostly within the Amtarctic Circle. This superocean also extends right up to the Aleutian Islands in the Pacific. As sea ice recedes, the Arctic Ocean is starting to become an extension of the Atlantic.
This is by far the most amazing documentary series on the Internet IMHO. I think I'm not alone in worrying that we haven't seen the next installment, and I worry that this series shall not continue on.
This was absolutely stunning and educational. Thank you, can not even fathom the work gonna into it.
15:10: That's a mishap there, you are showing Flying Foxes, but flying foxes don't echolocate 🧐
Right up there with the big budget networks' finest.
For the life of me, I cannot "see" constellations. They are as abstract to me as a secret code. EXCITED - as always to watch your videos.
You live in a city with streetlights all around you.
Go out into the countryside, far from any artificial lights.
Then look up.
Scorpio, Leo , and Gemini look like their names . Scorpio even has that red heart ( Antares)
Man you have no idea how much I love y’all ! All the things I wonder and continue to read about y’all make videos on !!!!
I love all of your channels. Thanks for referring us to Leila’s channel.
I love this series, and that includes the circuitous narratives. Still, in not beginning the tour of Earth's ancient superoceans before the twenty minute mark, you might be pushing your luck.
The "Pacific" Ocean was very poorly named.
Wishful naming
Heheh 🙊
@@jadeteraumiria "Pacific" implies that the ocean is peaceful, with no terrible storms. The Pacific Ocean is anything but peaceful.
@@DocFlareon Exactly. The, "Great pacific trash pile" or whatever they call it...
I take it you've never looked into actual naming conventions for most things. At least "Pacific" is kind of ironic; you know how many rivers there are that are literally just named river in another language? Or lakes? lol
Great work again! I really like the imagery, it adds to the learning experience (also the fact your voice is very calming.)!👍
Splendid video. This is one of the very best of documentary channels.
'But scientists nevertheless flex their astronomical muscles' 💪🏻💪🏻 HAHA, LOVE it!! BTW Amazing video, very well done & I LOVE that you used REAL space images & not a bunch of fake CGI images. (I get why those CGI images get used, to give an idea to something we don't have capabilites to capture very well or at all with even the best of telescopes) Just makes me happy to see real images of what we do have photos of 🤩🤩🤩
Always a good day when you upload a vid!
Thank you for a superb video!Truly clarifying in many aspects!
This is awesome! Watching a Documentary so I'm learning additional information is beyond wonderful.
Wow CZcams is pretty horrible for ads now a days. Got my first ad 30 seconds into the video...
I'm reading the _Broken Earth_ series right now by N.K. Jemisin. This is pretty timely.
This is awesome. You have captured the wonder of the HMS Challenger Expedition as well as well as the sweep and majesty of the process at work in the formation of the original oceans as well as the movements of the continents.
Thank you so much, this is wonderful
The content is informative and interesting, the dialog is well chosen and superbly enunciated, the musical accompaniment is sublime and unobtrusive yet has enough presence to make itself known.
Top shelf production indeed. Well done to all!
If I could suggest just one little improvement it would be to use some good heavy metal influenced tracking during the scenes where violent creative destruction is occurring. A properly tuned and played electric guitar can carry such a great ambience for scenes that are just _Two Steps from Hell_ one way and almost Heaven the other way. ;-)
@johnnytheprick not a damn thing.
Also nothing wrong with some Drop C Gibson guitar.
Imagine the crystals and chunks of metal one would have found...Oh man, I want to time-travel rockhound!
Absolutely wonderful! I've been binge watching these videos!
I seriously love your content. I've always went to educational videos like scishow's, Treytheexplainer, etc to sleep.
Your voice is perfect for this stuff !
I wasn't fully paying attention and for ages I thought you were talking about the Greek god Zeus and how he knew about Earth's ancient superoceans
I clicked on a video named a tour of earths ancient super oceans. it’s been 6 minutes and they are just now taking about oceans. Not complaining just a bit of constructive criticism for a channel that is obviously amazing.
You must be new here
Wow, six minutes of context and perspective.
The context is what they are going for. Its great imo!
Brilliant, many thanks again.
God damn, this channel is so criminally undersubbed. Can't believe I get to watch these awesome documentaries for free.
Trust me when I say, I have always wanted to see a tour of the Panthalassa Superocean, the hemispheric ocean surrounding Pangea
Same here. Except I thought the supercontinent was surrounding the ocean. Or did they surround each other like Yin-Yang?
Has anybody joined that Magellen service? It looks pretty tight.
I'm doing the free trial. Looks very good.
@@DJtotheSecond Cool. I'm gonna check it out.
Joining Magellan is TIGHT!!!
Writ Large! fabulous series, beautifully researched, written & edited, with a narration that perfectly integrates with the storyline. The History of the Earth, SEA and The Fall of Civilisations stand alone in the vast sea of youtube channels… oh and Science Time is another standout.
Wonderfully done presentation and the video and maps are always helpful to understanding of the audio. Great job.
You deserve far many more subscribers than you have. The writing for your docs and the narration is top notch! Bravo!
Very good job as always, the productions are well done, visuals and text match, seems strange to mention but so many "documentaries" go on with texts that have no relationship with the images. Thanks for your very professional productions.
Amazing, you're a great team. Thanks.
Thank you for being a outerspace explorer and organizer of observation and how questions charm fasenation.
Keep up the good work friends alike and afar.🍀

As usual very informative, great narrator over all awesome video thank you very much
I really liked the video. I do have a suggestion however. It would have been nice if the wind and ocean currents around the supercontinents had been indicated by arrows... Would have made it a bit easier to immagine the effects...

I've been waiting for a new episode for such a long time.
utterly fascinating. Thank you.
I watch creationist videos to see how they try to explain the “history” of the Earth as they presume to describe it. Everything is “we think” and “this could have happened” with no logical connection of cause and effect. Depressing that so many people trust such tripe vs the intellectually synchronized matrix of material processes shown here.
It always irritates me that they have only one source they always go back to. Its like the old saying: "The napkin religion is the one true religion because it says so right here on this napkin."
And what's ironic is, the scientific explanation is so much MORE interesting! Creationism: "Everything was always here exactly as it is now, because we say so." Whereas with the scientific story, things are dynamic and change and big huge sweeping overall changes to the whole planet can be caused by even tiny things (see: That Time Oyxgen Almost Killed Everything), and microscopic dots in the ocean, given enough time, can become trees, cats, bugs, people! and anything else in between.
The story of the universe and Earth doesn't NEED a deity to be a good story. It's "miraculous" enough as it is. :)
@Electro_blob 2 this compressed version is in pattern similar to actual earth history yet it is inevitably historically inaccurate. It’s claims are farcical because the supposed global flood never tossed continents around or formed mountains or canyons. Those events clearly took millions of years and we have mounds of absolute and present proof of the processes by which geology and evolution transpire. The creationist supposition is speculative, assumptive and dishonest. It is, to be blunt, a lie.
@Electro_blob 2 we know how continents move and can measure the rate to within centimeters. My neighbor works for NASA. That’s his job, tracking continental movement in real time. By contrast the inane claim that floodwaters tossed continents around like bathtub toys is complete nonsense. It’s utter bullshit to be blunt. I’ve read the creationist “literature” on this subject and it is rife with fabrications, conjecture and literalistic lies.
@Electro_blob 2 Boy are YOU ever on the wrong channel. It always cracks me up how _every single time_, without fail, if there's a science video, SOME would-be preacher will come along and be like "Blasphemy! The Earth is flat and only 6,000 years old! REPENT!"
...on the other hand, that tends to only happen on _popular_ science channels, so I guess the fact that you're here is a good sign. Just not in the way you thought.
But you're still in the wrong place to convert people. :)
“A tour of earths ancient super oceans” ok, let’s see about this. “A star 21 light years away”… wait what?
Building suspense😁.
Each new episode really makes my day
Faultless. Enjoying this series so much.
