While most people are curious about how Earth was formed and more importantly, how it transformed into this habitable paradise, very few, have the patience to pore over complicated science books to find out. Now, thanks to this amazing video created by Germany's Kurzgesagt, our beautiful planet's entire history can be mastered in about seven minutes!
The short movie that begins with the formation of earth and goes on to explain how it evolved, also brings to light many of the mysteries our planet still holds close to its heart. In addition to being educational, the video is also a reminder of how fortunate we all are, to be living on this amazing rock that we call home!
Kurzgesagt, which means "in a nutshell" in German, is the brainchild of a group of journalists, musicians and designers whose mission is to make science cool, easy to understand and most importantly, beautiful!
