Life has existed on one planet for about 4 billion years, for all we know. But it might have started right after the Big Bang, when the universe was much stranger and more fantastic than today. A universe that might have allowed life to develop absolutely anywhere. The cosmos might be full of the seeds of life, sleeping in a dead desert, waiting for a few drops of rain to explosively bloom and grow. Tiny and not so tiny aliens might be everywhere.

Can we just all appreciate the quality of these videos, they never fail to amaze me! I’d never miss a Kurzgesagt Upload!
When I was at university, I went to a talk from a scientist working on the (then proposed, now funded) Titan Dragonfly probe mission. One of her answers from the q&a at the end always stuck with me:
As someone who is studying for a PhD in medical genetics, I am simply amazed by this video. Even though evolutionary biology is not my field, my mind was blown by the idea of the universe being warm enough to support life everywhere for millions of years, in the past.
This is the first time the alien-seed-theory actually seemed based in logic and science and wasn't just an 'I dunno' cop-out! Thank so much for explaining it so well
As a professional plumber of 15 years, I am absolutely astounded by this video. To think that the microbes in toilets and pipes could have originated not in our colons, or even on earth, is nothing short of incredible. Thank you for introducing me to these fascinating concepts
The idea of primodial microbiotic life soaring through space on comic dust is so terrifying yet so inexplicably amazing
Kurzgesagt has the 2 sides, the "Look the amazing ways life could actually have started" and the "An alien species has shot a laser to our planet and we dont know till we all die"
Damn, the way you displayed the early universe seems so cozy and colourful. Skies would've been so beautiful with all these galaxies nearby, neabulae etc. Yes, it would be very hostile as well to us, but beautiful as well. Another amazing video Kurzgesagt! You never fail to amaze me!
I can’t explain precisely why, but this video felt extremely magical to watch. I don’t know if it was the story of the idea the whole universe could’ve been alive at one point (and maybe still is), the idea that every potential alien civilisation out there has the same roots, or maybe the stunning soundtrack. Great job Kurzgesagt because I really really like this video.
Even after all these years of watching Kurzgesagt, I still can't believe these amazing little documentaries are completely free for everyone to watch. Everyone really should watch them too.
my parents have gotten me this calendar every year for Christmas for five years now. I’ve been following this channel since your first video on black holes and how to destroy the universe. I’m so happy to be part of this community, and so proud of how far this channel has come. 😊❤
I haven't been in a great spot financially lately, so I've been keeping personal, unnecessary purchases to basically zero.
I am actually mindblown by this idea that life could have formed so early, and essentially 'be everywhere'. It would imply even a teeming universe could have life essentially from the same origin, which I think is truly fascinating
It’s such a crazy yet simple concept I’m actually blown away I never thought of it. The universe at one point was really hot and cooled to where it’s at now. Not sure why I never considered the fact that for a period of time the entire universe felt like going outside on planet earth temperature wise. Guess you’re so often reminded of how hostile the universe is that the idea of it being a comfortable temperature is immediately discarded. At least for me anyway
That's an incredibly beautiful hypothesis. I always felt it was so amazing to look at all life on earth being relatives to each other since we all share common ancestors.
These animations are brilliant. These common simple ideas would have been known to most anyone with an interest in science and reading books decades ago and I was worried that as we continually dumb down, read less and lose interest in anything that isn't digitally done for us younger generations would not be as thoughtful about these topics (or anything really) as generations before them, but with brilliant animation like this sparking interest in bigger topic the following generations still have a pretty good chance.
the idea of the universe being warm enough to support life in the past really blew my mind and I love it
It's the first time I hear about the concept of the Goldilocks universe. It absolutely fascinates me. This video (both the visuals and the narrative) is one of the most beautiful works you've made so far.
Such a rare moment when Kurzgesagt creates a warming video as opposed to the usual ones with existential dread.
