@@HistoryoftheEarth-- There is a big doubts about LHB among serious scientists. Look at the brilliant lecture of Stephen Mojzsis th-cam.com/video/-jMKoQ7b4Us/w-d-xo.html He's an expert on Hadean Eon and says -- there is no evidence of LHB 3.9 b.y.a But a lots of facts of Early HB 4.25 bln yrs ago! But I love your approach to the problem :=)
I am sorry to announce that after today's video I will no longer be researching and writing for History of the Earth. I expended tremendous effort to provide you all with meticulous research and carefully crafted prose. It was an honor and I am disappointed that I can no longer share them with you. Your kind compliments and enthusiasm touched my heart and I will carry them with me as I go forward. Sincerely, thank you.
Thank you for your contributions, Mr. Painter. I hope that the Kelly brothers can continue to make videos like this. I also hope that you can find success in doing something you love doing. Clearly, you are very good at research and writing! Thanks again, especially for the extensive links, which are already being helpful to me in my own research.
Aged frail human myself. You show signs of much literary education. Wikipedia etc sources to your background? Myself, also another "colorful" person, but will perish soon, without any major accomplishments.
I paused this in the middle of it when I realized this is one of the best written videos I have ever seen. Fantastic content. It's a crime you don't have more subscribers.
Science and compassionate knowledge found here. If the majority is ignorant, where is the advantage of majority rule? The less fools show up here the better. excellent work folks, thanks!
“The tortured minerals scattered across the solar system tell us their most recent trauma. But they have forgotten their deep past. Their crystalline memories wiped” This is brilliant screenwriting. Not the sort of thing you expect from a free TH-cam documentary. Bravo, bravo!
Yeah, all you need to write this stuff is a fair command of the English language and a thesaurus. Also, the desire to use a descriptive style a bit less dry than most.
"Gouged upon the lunar tissue rested the scars of a tremendous calamity". What a line. The writing and narrator truly bring this piece about destruction to life in the most beautiful way. ♥️
Just wanted to say that I have seen a few 'Birth of Earth' sequences over the years, but this is nicely paced, and beautifully and poetically narrated. Kudos.
This, NOVA(PBS) and the Fall Of Civilizations keep me going. These presentations keep the bar high on science documentaries. It's important work in a time when anybody gets to publish anything they want. Thank you SO MUCH, Painter & Kelly
Voices of the past, History time and the Pete Kelly channel are some of my favorite TH-cam channels, but this one is absolutely marvelous! Keep up the amazing work!
I could listen to David Kelly narrate all day. Most excellently written too. I would put this narration on the same level as David Attenborough, Tony Darnell, and Morgan Freeman.
I love this channel. I got hooked on geology about 15 years ago, just as a hobby, and I've learned enough to be impressed by how well you've distilled scientific consensus down to clear, compelling and poetic minisodes for the general public. In that combination of scientific rigor and lyrical wonder, you're following in the footsteps of Carl Sagan. Bravo. I've recced this channel on other social media platforms: hopefully I'll send a few viewers your way. I very much want to see this series continue.
@@TheShootist If the attempt of the channel is the educate as many as possible, what you're proposing would make that incredibly difficult. Instead of expecting people to cater their work to your needs, perhaps it is your responsibility to find what it is you seek.
I am going back through your catalog to rewatch the older videos. You really have always had the "it" factors needed for a great channel. I hope this channel and the others related to it have continued success for many years to come. Many thanks to everyone involved with the production of these great videos.
as someone who has always been fascinated with geological history I was kind of excited to watch the first two videos on this and I guess it is nice to see your guy's take on this and personally I do think that is what earth would've look like during that time and man being able to do this in such a short period of time. I mean sure they are only between 15-20 minutes but still.
3:36 man in the middle is my great grandfather Clifford Frondel, he let his son in law (My grandfather) litterally touch moon rocks, making me apart of a very small group of people who have actually even met somebody who has touched moonrocks, let alone be related to them
Your channel was in my recommendations. For once YT did good 😊 Even if english is not my native language your way of speaking makes it easy to follow. Can't wait for the next episodes. 👍
Another superb episode. I particularly like the notes in the description. Note 10 Common sense surely informs that there would not have been a hiatus in the formation of the system.
This is a stunning piece of work, succinct , elegantly read with a superb script and delivered with panache and objectivity! Sheer pleasure to watch and listen! Thank you
This is professional audiobook writing, narration, and quality. It's like listening to the greatest sci-fi book ever written, except it actually happened.
These are my favorite videos to watch, I go to work and discuss what I've learned to the younger guys that I work with an I sound like a genius, the writing is excellent and the one line descriptions are very clever, sad to see this go, well done mate
Apollo Program represent! Thank you for so clearly laying out one of the many reason why humans need to return to the Moon. There is still so much to learn and so much it can tell us about the Earth.
And here we are, a part of the re coalesced material from a supernova, endeavouring to analyse and describe the universe that consciousness finds itself in, as in looking at the fabric of its own manifestation. Fascinating.
nicely presented. my thought has been that the evidence we have are simply the first craters. that everything prior didn't leave craters because the surface had not cooled enough from the constant barrage that we casually call the formation of the planets. these are the same billion year long event the end of which we can date (more or less)
So weary of it all, our current times. The comments before mine are more eloquent than I can be and echo what I feel when I watch not only this episode but the series. I thought I'd seen most of the content on TH-cam, happy I was wrong. I am a geology junky and the reality of geologic time and the constant remaking of our planet and everything in it gives me peace to the core. I no longer care whether or not humans will continue. Life will. Earth will. Thank you, Mr. Painter, enjoy the rest of your journey.
As, for obvious reasons, I cannot celebrate the birth of Christ with my friends and family this year, I re-celebrate the birth of this planet and its biosphere with your videos. Your series is amazing, very professional and, although I'm quite interested in the subject, gives me new insights and food for thought. Thank you!
Brilliant! As a side note, the narrator is reminiscent of Sir Richard Burton, who narrated Jeff Wayne’s musical version of War of the Worlds, with music by the Moody Blues. Apocalyptic yet, relaxing…
The only time, I can see/hear this in peace, is, when I go to bed… so I drop off, and have listened to/ watched all episodes + History of the Universe endless times and learn more every time… the narration is great and interesting and understandable… sad, you had to stop this.
A video suggestion: When you get there, could you please make a video on plant evolution and arthropod evolution(from the first organisms)? I feel like that's almost never covered anywhere and have always wanted to learn it.
Liked. Not that I love graphs and tables, but.. could you add a sort of synoptic diagram, so the different hypotesis on the length of the late heavy bombardment can easily be visualised. Thanks...
I believe the idea that the LHB is only the tail end of a continuing primordial bombardment is not widely accepted in science. The last stages of planetary accretion move fast. Once the planets formed, the residue in the inner solar system should have been swept up fast. (The asteroids remain because the influence of the giant planets prevent them forming a stable large body). Evidence also suggests that the LHB impactors came in hotter than the ones prior. In the final stages of accretion, the impactors should be “slow” because, since they’re in approximate the same orbit as the target, the relative velocity is rather small. But objects pumped out of the asteroid belt by resonance with Jupiter would have much more speed and would have come in at an angle, making their relative velocities much higher. The Nice model that explains the LHB can also explain why so many planetary systems have Jupiter-sized planets in earth-like orbits around their star: giant planets may tend to migrate inward, but because our Jupiter would end up resonant with Uranus and Neptune, it got pulled back out, and in the process entered resonance with the asteroid belt.
Somewhat related to this is the subject of the formation of the moon. There is a theory that for a brief period after the Thea impact that there were two moons and that this explains the difference between the two sides of the moon. I would love to see an exploration of that concept if you haven't already done it. (I only just discovered your channel and this is only the second video I have checked out.)
Science does not have to be dry and with out poetry .What is poetry but words that numbers can not convey so humans understand what is written in the stars thank you for telling us mere mortals so well and making the Science into poetry we can understand. Loved the vid.
A rogue star could have caused it. It would’ve disturb the Oort cloud and pushed meteorites into the solar system and thrown off planets. Jupiter wouldn’t be much help.
It is possible, however, I believe the cause was much more boring and neither Jupiter nor a rogue star was involved. It was simply the left overs from the formation of the Solar System. And it was like the narrator says, most likely, a 1 billion years heavy and uninterrupted bombardment, since the formation of the Solar System. The Solar System wasn't done yet.

This channel quality and information is fantastic thank you
Brilliant! As a side note, the narrator is reminiscent of Sir Richard Burton, who narrated Jeff Wayne’s musical version of War of the Worlds, with music by the Moody Blues. Apocalyptic yet, relaxing…
Loving this channel! Interesting thought too: not a Late Heavy Bombardment but just continuous bombardment from 4.4 to 3.6 Gya.
I want to leave a comment, for the algorythm, but i have nothing to add. Keep up the great work and have fun at it!

Beautiful, beautiful, script... Breathtaking
Your voice and vocabulary really does relax me. It leaves me longing for more knowledge from you.

A video suggestion: When you get there, could you please make a video on plant evolution and arthropod evolution(from the first organisms)? I feel like that's almost never covered anywhere and have always wanted to learn it.
I adore listening to David Kelly. He could read the phone book or a grocery list, I would still listen.
This is fascinating, high quality content. How do I support the channel?
This is like the intro to the Lord of the Rings.
Well done! You deserve many more subscribers. (Edit: typo)
Man, the writer and the narrator deserves a double pay.
Liked.
Not that I love graphs and tables, but.. could you add a sort of synoptic diagram, so the different hypotesis on the length of the late heavy bombardment can easily be visualised.
Thanks...
Outstanding ... Thank you ....
Very informative video and very well made. Liked and subscribed.
Interesting presentation. Definitively worth a "food for thought" moment.Thanks👍🌙🌕🌙👍
Yes, thank you for all your diligent work on these videos. I hope they get picked up by school systems! Beat to you!
I believe the idea that the LHB is only the tail end of a continuing primordial bombardment is not widely accepted in science. The last stages of planetary accretion move fast. Once the planets formed, the residue in the inner solar system should have been swept up fast. (The asteroids remain because the influence of the giant planets prevent them forming a stable large body). Evidence also suggests that the LHB impactors came in hotter than the ones prior. In the final stages of accretion, the impactors should be “slow” because, since they’re in approximate the same orbit as the target, the relative velocity is rather small. But objects pumped out of the asteroid belt by resonance with Jupiter would have much more speed and would have come in at an angle, making their relative velocities much higher. The Nice model that explains the LHB can also explain why so many planetary systems have Jupiter-sized planets in earth-like orbits around their star: giant planets may tend to migrate inward, but because our Jupiter would end up resonant with Uranus and Neptune, it got pulled back out, and in the process entered resonance with the asteroid belt.
That video was very IMPACTFUL ;) by the way will you be uploading stuff to your new channel: the History Brothers?
Somewhat related to this is the subject of the formation of the moon. There is a theory that for a brief period after the Thea impact that there were two moons and that this explains the difference between the two sides of the moon. I would love to see an exploration of that concept if you haven't already done it. (I only just discovered your channel and this is only the second video I have checked out.)
That theory is absolute Bull S*** it defys many factors and doesn't line up our observations on the moon.
Science does not have to be dry and with out poetry .What is poetry but words that numbers can not convey so humans understand what is written in the stars thank you for telling us mere mortals so well and making the Science into poetry we can understand. Loved the vid.
I just found this channel AND I'M SO HAPPY 😭
Who is this and why ain't the subs in the millions? One of the best videos I've ever seen 👍👋👋👋👋🏁🏆🥇🎯
Simply a fantastic series.
I wish I've known this channel way back.
That script written by William Painter is amazing.
The narration was executed splendidly by David Kelly.
awesome vid! ill definitely share.
Hey... you know what is great about this channel............................................EVERYTHING! (crickets)
These episodes are amazing!
The voiceover still sounds echoed. (Unlike other videos you've done.)
"The moon is silent because it has seen too much."
You have the content to get 500,000+ subs. Keep it up!
A rogue star could have caused it. It would’ve disturb the Oort cloud and pushed meteorites into the solar system and thrown off planets. Jupiter wouldn’t be much help.
It is possible, however, I believe the cause was much more boring and neither Jupiter nor a rogue star was involved. It was simply the left overs from the formation of the Solar System. And it was like the narrator says, most likely, a 1 billion years heavy and uninterrupted bombardment, since the formation of the Solar System. The Solar System wasn't done yet.
@@DanielDogeanu yeah. still, really makes you think about it
British or literary narration is aesthetic but harder to comprehend while multitasking
