Thecleverly insightfulanimated video seriesKurzgesagt took on the onerous task of animating a brilliant timeline of the 4.5 billion years it took for the Earth to evolve into its current form, with every second representing a million years. This animation, which encompasses each of the Earth's four known geologic eons (Hadean,Archean,ProterozoicandPhanerozoic) and the various eras, periods, epoch and ages in between in a colorful and informative fashion, is an hour long and the longest they've ever done.
