I was suffering from a bit of writers block this week so I decided to so to the comments section of some of my previous videos for inspiration on what to talk about. And of course I knew I could count on all of you! I started noticing a pattern in what many of you were asking for. Many people have requested that I broadly cover different time periods from Earth’s history… And that got me thinking.
This video is going to be the first in a series where I tell the story of the Earth from it’s creation four and a half billion years ago all the way to the modern day. In this chapter I will be seeing how our world was formed. As well as how many of the things that make this planet so perfect for supporting life. At this point life has not yet evolved by the end of the video but the stage is effectively set over the next four billion years into everything you see around you today!

Out of no where one day, I was just like "I want to learn about our Earth from the very beginning" and then boom I found you!! Can't wait to keep watching videos and learn!
You ever seen the "History of the Earth" series (also the name of the channel) here on TH-cam? It does just that--teaches you about Earth from the very beginning. And it's SO GOOD. I just wish they'd put out new episodes a little faster!
@@robinchesterfield42 just watch this dude lol bro makes videos that are quality and uploaded often
Why not both :)
A year later and I had the exact same thought ha ha
Same
"Named after the Greek god of the Underworld, James Woods." ah that hit me right. Great video!
It's fascinating that this entire period is so long ago and largely unknown but the Hadean spans almost the entirety of complex multicellular life.
You have things arse about face.
@@neddyladdy ???
@@helpmepleaseiamlost Fascinating that it is so long ago AND largely unknown. Doesn't it follow that if it so long ago, that it WOULD be largely unknown.
@neddyladdy i think they were saying that the Hadean eon lasted about the same amount of time as complex multicellular life has been around (ie, hundreds of millions of years, NOT that they were concurrent) and yet we know comparatively little about it. I don't think they phrased it well, but that's how I'm interpreting it.
@@dorkthrone 164 other people understood my meaning that neddylady apparently didn't which is that the Hadean Eon was nearly as long as the span of time from the beginning of complex multicellular life to now which is about 600 million years roughly speaking for both. 600 million years ago for us - life was in the Ediacaran Period with weird lifeforms some a confusing mix of plant and animal and now here we are with intelligent (in theory) monkeys who have junk in space and insta-communication across the globe. The Hadean despite the same length of time is essentially a geological blur because it is so distant in the past.
However, to carry this idea of time spans further, if all life ceased tomorrow and if there were any entity out there to record Earth's history they might think complex lifeforms were an aberration on Earth having occupied less than a quarter of its geological history - even less if this were closer to the Earth's end 4 or 5 billion years from now (depending on if the Sun ends up swallowing it).
"Gonna be more like astronomy and geology than paleontology"
Well, the beginning of a global history class would normally be prehistoric human evolution, so I think it is only appropriate that the beginning of a global paleobiology series be prebiotic chemistry and geology.
The Hadean Eon is the most facinating chapter of Earth's history-by far! Greenland is the place to look for the first solid ground the Earth produced as she finally started to cool. The real shocker is that there are pillow lava deposits from the Hadean which are only formed under a deep body of water. The implications of this are staggering and are certainly worth a closer look.
I am immensely grateful that you decided to do a series on this subject, despite the fact that you aren't sure it will get as many views as your other videos. The history of our planet is an extremely interesting topic to me but it's hard to find digestible explanations. Thank you so much for putting in the work, you did a fantastic job!
If I recall, another great series on the full history of earth is the one by PBS Eons.
I am all for this, since its going to be interesting to look at the earth's evolution from burning ball of rock, into the human habited world.
As opposed to watching it go back again in our lifetimes
Humanity in a blank of eye
No spoilers! 😂
A comment for the algorythm and to say that this series would be exactly what i have been looking for on TH-cam. Looking forward to more episodes.
The James Woods Eon is my favorite Eon.
It IS a great idea for a video series and it really suits your channel aswell.
Every now and then I love to rewatch this whole playlist, it's like comfort food for my heart ♥️
I love it when youtube algorithm reccomendeds me these hidden gem channels
I love the quip at the end about sitting around a hydrothermal vent and trying to get back to normal! You've got to know a thing or two about paleobiology to get that joke!
Seriously, though, it's incredible to think that scientists are increasingly discovering evidence (even if just in the form of carbon traces) that life probably arose during the Hadean Eon. The origin of life on Earth is truly ancient, and it seems increasingly likely that life arose right near the very beginning of the Earth's formation, even despite the Earth being a hellscape at that time.
Enjoyed the whole segment of the begining.
This is going to be a good series
i haven’t heard about Thea in so long i was worried my little self had imagined learning about her…
Great video. Never had an ethidium bromide molecule hosting a video LOL. Seriously, I really enjoyed this.
Also, I think it was AMAZING how you started with the formation of earth itself. Although this topic is usually discussed by planetary science, I think it's important for paleontologists to provide their perspective and its relevance to the biochemistry that sparked life. PLEASE keep posting videos about the characteristic features of each period, eon, etc. I recently discovered this channel and I am obsessed lol.
I have been looking for a series like this for a long time. Some channels have what i want but have 100+ 20 min videos covering every detail and others only have one or two videos covering only a few eras or an eon.
Sweet man I love this idea. Your narration is so much more enjoyable than just straight facts.
Another reason for older periods lasting longer was less happened over longer periods.
Especially pre-abiogenesis, there were just tens of millions of years of stuff like, "And then it rained for a 100 million years" and that was all that happened.
From a strictly biological perspective, maybe.
It really is mostly that we don't know much about what happened, because the evidence is gone.
While that's like true to some extent it's important to note that we aren't 100% certain about that. The further back we go the less evidence we have. This can lead us to believe not much happened. But we shouldn't necessarily assume having no evidence is the same as nothing happening.
As this video said on a geological scale, the Hadean Eon is so far ago we don't even have rocks from back then. On a geologically active planet, the rocks themselves get recycled over time. The vast majority of evidence and data from back then has been melted down by our planet's core.
For example, if the Empire statebuilding was transported back in time that far, we'd have no idea it was ever there. It would have been destroyed so thuroughly we'd never find even a single piece of evidence of it.
We don't know what sort of rock formations got lost to time. Much of our early history is blanks, not because nothing happened, but because there is no evidence of anything happening.
Not all heroes wear capes. Some make easy to follow geological historical videos.
Really enjoying this series. I'm glad you started this far back even if there isn't as much to say about it. I find the whole deep time stuff fascinating, even if it does give me mental vertigo.
I'm so glad i found your page! Can't wait to binge watch the episodes from the very start.
Please keep this series going, I havent found anything this bingeworthy since the unbiased history of Rome
I just discovered your channel today during lunch and I'm already completly hooked. I really hope your channel continues to blow up. I've loved history, pre-history, dinosaurs and geologic history since I was a kid and still goble up all the documentaries and books I can. Thank you for making such cool content! I really look forward to seeing this series play out.
I really hadn't realized before how early in our history the Theia impact hit. I thought it was several million years after the planet's formation, but you said within the first few hundred thousand years! 🤔 Here I am, on the wrong side of a half century, and I'm only now realising this!
So, thank you! ❤❤ I already learned something today, and haven't even finished off my coffee pot, yet! 😄
❤ ❤ 🖖🏼🙂👍🏼
The history of earth is truly mindblowing.
This is what I listen to when I want to fall asleep to after I listened it to learn the first time. Your voice is super relaxing.
I just stumbled here, and this guy has "Video your science class would pull out" Energy in the best ways possible. Dorky dad humor while telling legit science. I had to sub on the spot. lol
I absolutely love listening to these while I’m doing other things (cleaning fish tanks, laundry, knitting). Wonderful job of being entertaining and educational
idk if this helps your channel at all, but i constantly put this whole playlist on in the background to have human voices in my empty apartment. i love rewatching it and it's great.
YES! Thank you for making this series. Subscribed! Edit: James Woods :'D
Well, I think it's safe to say that these videos are a major bingo when it comes to quality. Eventually, I hope they will surge in viewership for you
Have watched the entire series and now starting over. Love these videos, the narration *and* the googly eyes.
This is amazing. Your How did crocodiles survive video and this entire series is right up my alley! You even have a nice relaxing voice 😄
This series needs 1 million views per video like that one other you made!
Randomly came across this page while searching for dinosaur info. After watching this video, I’m excited to see what you’re able to do with the rest. 👏 👏 👏
Can't wait for more!
I love this series idea!
I remember reading an article that discussed a hypothesis brought up by some researchers. It went roughly as follow: "Wow, there sure are a lot of hot Jupiters in other systems! Most all of them, in fact. Why are our gas giants not right near the sun like the rest? Perhaps Jupiter WAS near the sun eons ago, but some cosmic event had it thrown away from the sun, wreaking havok throughout our solar system." There's more to this, obviously. I'd link the article, but TH-cam will probably flag this comment as suspicious and you'll never see it. I can probably send it in a reply.
Anyways! Anyways! What if this slingshotting of Jupiter away from the sun was the catalyst from tossing Theia towards Earth? Jupiter's gravity is massive, after all. And Jupiter being our gravitational guardian, today, would fit into the calming of Earth's development, if fewer space rocks were running into it.
Just and idea, and i could be completely wrong, but I thought it was interesting enough to share.
I can't even find it. THis was back in high school, so I don't remember anyone's name', either.
I love reading all these theories but am now, alas, not remembering all the details as well as I did in my long-ago student days. I read something about a suspected cataclysmic event-=or maybe more than one--to explain various curiosities in our solar system, such as: Why does Venus rotate in the opposite direction to the rest of the planets? Why does Uranus's axis lie horizontally to the plane the planets orbit in, rather than vertically like the rest? (I hope I have these right.) The early years of the solar system seem to have been very perilous for all the satellites. There is also the apparent inability of a planet to form between Mars and Jupiter, thus leaving a lot of asteroids and other bits and pieces circling the sun and sometimes getting pushed out of orbit. Your suggestions about Jupiter's influence are very interesting.
Regarding the fewer space rocks, maybe that's simply because many have already coalesced into planets or smaller bodies, or have already crashed into planets; sooner or later the numbers of the free-floaters must just simply go down.
@@HVAC_Sean Maybe Thea slingshotted around the sun, then hit Jupiter, but it, being mostly gas, did not stop Thea, but it was pushed/sucked out of it's original orbit, and Thea went on to hit earth afterwards?
Or maybe Thea was a gas giant with a solid core.... It struck earth, the core hit while the gas floated on, but lost much momentum and so came to 'rest' in an orbit a bit beyond earth and formed Jupiter....
Found this series by accident, So glad I did, excellent summary and analysis, thank you SO much !
I gotta say, THANK YOU about this series.
I have been trying to find someone who makes all these pre historic periods like this, same style and same series
Oh I can't wait to see what video PALEO Analysis has come up with this week.
Literally Hell on Earth.
Interesting though
I watched an eons video a few days ago that talked about water that came from rocks. Fascinating stuff
Your content is both fun and educational in an enjoyable way. I like your laid back and down to earth style and good sense of humor. I really hope you keep up with this channel. Also really appreciate your James Woods joke. Really did lol at that one and had to rewind so I could chuckle again. :)
Just what my brain needs. Thanks for making this kind of content.
It's just absolutely beautiful - it really makes you think what % of the population is completely naive to our incredible history. Man when I have kids this will be drilled into their heads
Can’t wait to see this video blow up
You definitely did something right. This entire series is very rewatchable.
"Oh god! I've gone so far back in time, I'm an ethidium bromide molecule! *NOOO*OOOOooo!!!" XD
"the Greek god of the dead, James Woods"
"some stray planet straight-up T-boned us"
I'm totally digging this mix of educational and snark. Keep it comin'! :)
One of the greatest yt series
love this, the content and the presentation are fantastic. Excuse me while I binge the whole series
Been looking for a series like this for a while. Can't wait to see the outcome. Episode 1 let's go
Really well-explained buddy, appreciate the work that you have put in for your content. I can't begin to imagine the amount of time and effort you have dedicated to this. Thank you so much!
Hello, just wanted to say that for some strange reason, I just started watching paleontology documentaries - then I discovered your channel! It's educational, relaxing, entertaining, etc. I am so fascinated by dinosaurs, but what I enjoy even more is how you discuss the animals that either coexisted with dinosaurs or even preceded them!! I find it so strange that NO ONE talks about this!! It has to be one of the most fascinating things. PLEASE do more history of the earth and creatures that existed before dinosaurs that we hardly know about. I LOVE how you mentioned the history of the earth and all geological units of times such as periods and eons.
That is a very good approach you got!
4:15 hahahaha that nebula is a bit, ummm, _larger_ than a protoplanetary disk, don't you think? loved the video and the effort you put in, and thanks for the laugh!
This is great idea. I watched a similar series long time ago, it was collected clips from many separate videos, but then most of it disappeared somewhere... We need one full "catalog" of the whole thing. I for one keep forgetting these things over time, so I want to go through them again later on as well
please continue this series it is teaching me so much!!!!
Great series. Really appreciate the time it takes.
Dude I love you . I’m so glad found this channel. You have the best personality 💗
interesting, look forward to the rest of this
I watched a lot of series about history of the Earth, some of them multiple times. Oh, I'll do that again. I'll be doing it until I can memorize it.
Very well done in every way, both informative and entertaining in the best way. Thank you!
Im enjoying cueing up the series and go through in sequence.
Then, say a few days or a week I'll watch again, refreshing and taking in what I missed the first time. Surprising how much one misses despite thinking nothing got past you.
Discovered this channel a few months ago you explain it alot more simpler than other channels. I totally love it. You should have more views,
Great series btw
What a great channel, you definitely deserve more views! Thank you for all your videos!
I've watched this series twice through now (as of the release of the Carboniferous period). It is absolutely fantastic, engaging and I've learned so much - I can't believe anyone else has tried to create something like it. Super excited for all the periods and epochs to come! You well deserve to get 1m+ subscribers by the end of it. Love your work brother.
This series is absolutely cool idea. Keep on brillian stuff you make :-)
Love your style, humor and information in a nice mix!
Keep this up, your content is awesome and fills a sparsely occupied niche. :)
Woods was such a good Hades.
Thank you for this series! I have been thoroughly enjoying it. I started on the Pleistocene, because I love megafauna and have been working my way backwards. It’s been so interesting. And I wouldn’t have searched out certain epochs because I either didn’t know about them or wasn’t particularly interested. I’ve truly enjoyed it and learned so much. Well done.
I hope you make more! I’m about to binge watch this playlist!
Congratulations! You are now over 114k subscribers!
I thought that I would celebrate by traveling back in time and watching the history of the Earth from the beginning...also this way I make sure that I haven't missed anything.
Just found your channel. This series looks like it's gonna be great. Can't wait to see the rest of your videos.
You forgot to mention the crazy short rotational period of the time. As for ancient rock surviving to this day, look no farther than the Laurentian Shield in North America.
I'm downloading these vids and saving it in a secured vault on a hard drive with a backup copy in vinyl
So the Hadean was pretty accurately depicted in Disneys Fantasia.
This is series exactly what I've been looking for :)
Oh man, it's been a little over a year since this series started?! Time flies, doesn't it?
Coming here after the end of The Great Dying!
Glad I found this series, very interesting and fun to watch.
I just found your channel. I love it!!!!!!!!
Great series
Love the Geographic Timescale video of each eras.
Your videos are awesome, thank you!
This looks great!
I got up to where you became some sort of fish then I had to start over, its awesome! I love history anyway but this is a whole new level of edu-tainment. What videos can you point to that may describe the fossils I find here in Central AZ? Specifically the mogollon rim, which is the southern border of the colorado pleateau I see millions of hem but curious as the the specific species, etc
Dude, you’re awesome. Thanks.
I watched these out of order based on popularity and what I felt like listening to during work. Now I am rewatching everything in order during my overtime workdays at the office. Thank you for making this, I will now be able to have one part of my brain immersed in awesome history while the other part is pushing buttons and looking at a computer screen ❤
I'm so excited to start this playlist!!!!
a video on Dunkleosteus. My Devonian hero!!
Can’t wait to watch the others!
New upload, time to rewatch the whole series!
Just the video I was looking for! Funny and informative.
Hella good video keep up the great work you’ll get your due
Totally love this series. It ought to be piped into elementary schools to spark a love for science and history.
Should definitely do astronomy content here and there 👌
New sub here cannot wait to binge this entire series 😂
