Earth is 4.5 billion years old - which is approximately the same amount of time it took us to create this video.
We’ve scaled the complete timeline of our Earth’s life into our first animated movie! Every second shows about a million years of the planet’s evolution. Hop on a musical train ride and experience how long a billion years really is. It’s the perfect background for your next party, a great way to take a break from studying, or a fascinating companion while you’re on the go … and our celebration of 10 years of kurzgesagt.

But there were no atoms around during the BB, according to the accepted Big Bang models. Atoms only started to appear a few hundred thousand years after the BB. And no, at best only some of your atoms are from that era either, specifically hydrogen and helium. Truth to be told, a lot of atoms in your body were formed millions (or even billions) of years after the BB, being the products of stars doing fusion and Neutron stars doing the things Neutron stars do.

    The fact that nothing is sped up or slowed down makes this so powerful. It shows, that any sort of notion that the Earth was made for us, is wrong. Planet Earth's been "empty" and dead for hundreds of millions of years, and could have very well remained so. It would have still been a magnificent thing all on it's own. Life really is just a lucky copassenger. And humans... to Earth we are nothing but another visitor. A short-term tenant.

    Your first clause, i agree with. The fact that nothing is sped up or slowed down is powerful, as it puts into perspective of the insignificance of humanity on a cosmic scale. But your second clause, where you state: "It shows that any notion that the earth was made for us is wrong" is simply a faulty premise. There are much better arguments for denying that the earth wasnt made for humans, but this one is bad for several reasons. To demonstrate this, I will argue the same from the perspective of a person who believes that the earth was created for humans, who would sinply say "The fact that the earth has been around for so long proves the immense amount of improbable instances of pure chance occuring, which eventually culminated in the perfect period of time for Humanity to flourish, supporting the notion that the earth is created for humans. Look at all the things that came before humanity, and to think it was all necessary to create a perfect instance for humanity to exist! It shows that any notion the earth was NOT made for us is wrong!". This is also a bad argument, as it relies on similar logic to the argument you gave to say that the longevity of the earth supports the notion that the earth wasnt created for humans. This type of evidence can be seen from both perspectives, and neither is more valid than the other. Which means that this evidence is bad for both sides of that argument. 👍 I hope you enjoyed my mock lesson on philosophical arguments. Thank you for reading this 😊.

    Not taking a side, but it would be an interesting exercise to determine what 'would' be needed to create a planet for humans - or maybe more precisely, how would we know this is what happened? The fact that it took 4+ billion years for it to happen doesn't seem convincing one way or the other. Maybe that's just how long it takes. Would it be meaningful if it happened faster? Or what if we were at a point where human history spanned 100 million years or 4 billion years, instead of where we're at now? If we were a longer-term tenant, would it then change the perspective looking back on Earth's creation? Why would those things matter?

    What's more insane, is if you consider many of these facts have been known or mentioned over 1000 years ago. *Big Bang and Evolution starting from the water:* "Do the disbelievers not realize that the heavens and earth were one mass then We split them apart? And We created from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?" - Quran 21:30 We built the heaven with might, and We are certainly expanding it. - Quran 51:47 How could a desert man 14 hundred years ago know that? You may say it's a guess work or a flock, but there're more impossible hints in that book. *Origins of iron:* “And We also sent down iron in which there lies great force and which has many uses for mankind…” - Quran 57:25 The Quran seems to imply that the iron was something “sent down” and not from this earth, an idea not foreign to 20th century science. *Origins of water:* When the comets enter our atmosphere the heat generated on entry vaporizes this ice into the atmosphere. The Christian Bible says that God created water directly on Earth, however the Quran didn't do this mistake instead it says that God sent down water from outer space "In the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of night and day; in the ships that sail the oceans for the benefit of mankind; *In the water which Allah sent down from the Heavens and brought with it life to Earth after being dead and gave life in it to every kind of land animal;* And in directing the winds; And in the clouds that are enslaved between the Heavens and the Earth; [All these] are Signs for a people who comprehend." - Quran 2:164

    I wanna give a shout out specifically to the AUDIO CREW: specifically Thomas Veith and Flabian Glaser!!! I see a bunch of people praising the animation crew, and they totally deserve it, but OMG! The full 1+ hour of music and sound design that flowed so naturally and felt so progressively fitting for each time period…astounding! As a music producer and someone who loves sound design (and studied film in uni), I very much appreciate how much work went into what y’all did AND how important your work was to the editing process that gave us this wonderful work of art! Seriously, the music evolved and was seriously engaging for me as you ultimately shifted tempo, played with genres, played with time signatures, had so many variations on a theme that were constantly fresh, and built climax after climax but still only incrementally building those climaxes over an hour… Well done. Very well done. (Audio crews rare get the recognition they deserve on film/animation projects, yet they are SO fundamental to the art, so I just had to focus on them)

    Since 1,250,000 years pass each second in this video, it would be so awesome if a sequel to this video would portray the past roughly 1,250,000 years in one hour, with about 350 years passing each second!

    I’d watch the heck out of that. But it’d probably take them another four years to make

    honestly it would probably feel like it’s moving just as fast, at least relative to human history! 350 years ago was the 1600s, which already seems like a really long time ago. in the last 150 alone we’ve had two world wars and went from horse plows to electric cars. humans move incredibly fast on a whole earth scale

    That would defeat the point of this video in my opinion. We glorify human history to such an extent that we forget that in the eyes of the universe we are just a blink of an eye.

    That much work put into this and it only felt like 10 minutes, the music was amazing too and the vid was overall really relaxing and great.

    I would love to see all of human history condensed into a similar span of time. I feel like it would be an interesting contrast to see all of what fit into that last tenth of a second or so.
