Watching the End of the World

What would we see if we could journey through time, from Earth's birth up to its death? Join us today on a voyage through time, from planetary creation to the blossoming of life, from the first civilizations to the planet's ultimate demise. An educational video written & presented by Prof David Kipping Fun fact! We used clips from 21 different films to make this video, trying watching through a second time and playing a quiz to see if you can get them all (answers below!).
