The two branches of science that truly make you feel insignificant: Astro Physics and Geology. Yes, we are really that small, in every way possible to imagine.
Thank you sharing your lectures with us. I'm 68 and I'm watching because I would like to understand the forces and processes that formed this world. I normally watch on my TV but I'm using my computer this morning. From Pico Rivera, (LA).
hey there, I know your comment is a few years old, but the Internet likes to keep its fossiles, too. I'm sure by now someone else had informed you, but I hope this comment might help to inspire to go through some older comments: computer science is very advanced these days and crime never sleeps; thus it's best to keep ones own name and location as secretiv as possible. The worst of our kind that seem way to plentiful these days like to exploit easy information for identity theft and such. Keep safe, friend. And keep learning!
I live in an area where I can walk to the late cambrian and end in the mesozoic. There are trace fossils everywhere and I can see the remains of the eruptions that broke up Pangaea. It is an honor to be able to look at the traces of events of that magnitude
Can you imagine a Cambrian superhero series? Anomalocaris vs. the evil Dickensonia and his Ediacaran henchmen... er... hench-biota? hench-things? hench-worms? The characters need fleshing out, but I'm liking the idea. Marvel, are you listening?
He meant your skeleton will be embedded in rocks billions of years in the future. The soft parts of your dead body will have been eaten by microbes and rats many long millions of years before your fossil skeleton is dug out of the bedrock.
Hey,I just wanted to jump in and tell you how happy I was to see the most recent couple longer episodes. I had made a post a few weeks ago about how I loved the show but I felt that the length was too short and it needed more. You replied and let me know there were some longer form episodes coming. I know that it will change from episode to episode, but I just wanted to make sure you guys knew I really enjoyed the longer ones. You guys are an inspiration and I wish that we had these when I was younger. I have a nephew who loves these as well. He's a little too young to fully understand but too old for much of the children's content on similar subjects so I spend some time every week "translating" these for him into a kid friendly format - retaining as much of the information as possible but explaining it in a way that a 10 year old can really wrap his head around and digest. He really loved the episodes on the illustrated history of dinosaurs and when whales could walk. And I've enjoyed them all. It's great. Cheers.
Steven Utter I am sorry if the choice of words was strange. I just meant to show my appreciation for what they were doing and let them know that I remembered what they said and was still watching. I went ahead and edited it to be more clear.
Steven Utter there's no need to be rude! Feedbacks good, and everyone likes to know people are enjoying their content and format ❤️ if you don't have anything nice to say ... 😉✨
It's sad to see how much underrated this channel is. Such good content, yet only about 1 million subscribers. If they did same quality content on something else, say games etc. I think it would be 10x as much. People are drifting away from these. 😞😞
I would love to see Supercontinents and relative climate. I want to physically see how the continents moved with reference to what life forms were living on it during these periods. Thank you!
Love how up-to-date this material is. Mentions the possibility of life in the Hadean Eon, amd the emerging realization that dinosaur extinction likely had multiple causes.
I teach Earth Science and I’d Love some videos that focus on the methods used by historical geologists like paleomagnetism, ice core sampling, radio metric dating, etc. THANKS! Love this channel!
How does a species dna 🧬 just know to adapt and evolve? For example with the two fish where one of them just grew teeth. Like how did it know to do that?
The DNA does not "know" how to adapt. There is no intentionality in evolution. The adaptation comes about as a result of natural selection of certain genotypes generation after generation. If an animal is more fit due to its genetic makeup, it will have more offspring. And so on... There is much more to this topic than I can type. @@chrisfern4699
“I still miss those guys” - unquestionably my favourite funny quote in this video. I love your knowledge, enthusiasm and sense of humour, guys! Thank you for making those videos. You make a difference in this internet full of worthless crap! 🙂❤️😊
I'd love to see more of geology explored and explained. There are always small snippets here and there, but it's hard to find a comprehensive video series that is educational, informative and entertaining. How are different layers formed, what kind of minerals do you find in those layers, how to identify them, etc etc. Information about different minerals and crystal formations and variations, distinctive traits and ways to identify them. Thank you!
If you’re still really interested in this stuff I highly recommend googling open geology. There are multiple geology textbooks online that are completely free and can satisfy your curiosity. Geology is truly fascinating.
I'm currently reading "At The Mountains Of Madness" by H.P. Lovecraft, and all the plot about incredibly ancient times and beings just fueled my geological curiosity. I'm glad I found this channel!
I'll also recommend The Shadow Out of Time on that subject. Although some of his ages are pretty off based on what we know nowadays. Still great as a cosmic horror story though.
humans are probably the single most adaptable species to ever live on earth. there is every reason to expect that whatever changes that come to the earth, our own doing or externally, we will survive it. i have seen models that suggest that the energy necessary to ensure our extinction rivals that necessary to simply eliminate the biosphere entirely. the thing about climate change that everyone fails to understand is that its a change. earth wont turn into Venus. it might get a lot warmer, ice caps may disappear altogether. we might even see tropical climates above the arctic circle again. but earth will still be habitable. well for a while anyway. change will beget wars. and it may be an unpleasant time. but there will be a new normal afterwards. one where humans will probably thrive, and new species will adapt.
What "level of destruction" are we bringing? Have you not listened to anything in these videos? We pale in comparison to what the Earth went through in the past, and for the amount of time it did so!
@@Spetsop I think that's what JangriBird means. Life will go on because we'll never be more destructive than gelology. so all we have to do is keep an eye on nature and make sure we deal with any genuine bulshit like the death of the sun or maybe an even bigger asteroid.
Thanks for this video. Until now, the various "named chunks of time" were just something I tried to remember which animals and events were in. I had no idea that they were classified into such a satisfying hierarchy of scales! It's much easier to organize and understand this information now that I know that I realize epoch and period aren't interchangeable terms. Learning about Geologic Time has made geology significantly more interesting to me :D
What a great way to describe. Like us who has never been able to have lesson about this but now it became so interesting. Thank goodness, UA-cam is not boring anymore. Thanks a lot to all people who work on this from the bottom of my heart.
Awesome video! It's absolutely mind boggling to think of all that has existed before us and all we cannot possibly know. So, thank you for helping us learn what is known.
Started as a student in Geoscience in 1967, a few years before Plate Tectonics was fully accepted. During the early part of my career as a Petroleum Geologist in '79, the concepts of Sequence Stratigraphy became the norm. Then, in 1984, 3D Seismic was invented and made imaging the subsurface so much better. It was a great time to be a Geologist. Enjoyed the video presentation of Geologic Time - it's a difficult topic to cover well in 12 minutes, but you did a great job!
I am unable to express in enough words just how much I loved this and these styled videos!! Really enjoy having this host. Funnily enough, around the time he asked us if we needed to cool down (around 9:30-ish), I most certainly did on account of having laksa while watching 😂. Thanks again for another intriguing and informative video PBS Eons!!
Thanks for providing a history of the evolution of geologic time. Most people have no idea. I love how you touched on primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. Only the quaternary is the only one left.
I would like to thank all of you for deciding to watch truly educational and fascinating videos that not a lot of people watch these days and I thank you for choosing this over some prank video.
I would love to see an episode covering the Cenozoic in more detail. And a similar one on the Paleozoic would also be awesome. I feel like what paleontology education most people get, if they get one at all, is Cambrian Explosion ... dinosaurs, dinosaurs, dinosaurs, dinosaurs ... something fuzzy about mammoths and ice ... today!! (tadaa!) Already I feel like you covered the Cenozoic and Paleozoic in more detail in this video than I got straight through until my undergrad Geology classwork. It would be absolutely amazing to give either era a more detailed look like I know the PBS Eons team can. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for these; it always cheers me up to see a new episode when I'm feeling depressed. Puts perspective on the futile feeling I get when I once again fail to find employment. :3
What amazes me is the fact that life forms seem to "disappear" or get wiped out but then eventually life evolves and returns again, out of no where seemingly
Life was never really wiped out of the Earth actually. In every single extinctions there must be some organisms (even if it's just 1% of all of the organisms that lived at that time) that survived and persisted that extinction and eventually evolve into something else and finally paved the way to the new life we know today. We have to thank those of our persistent ancestors whose survived those series of extinctions 😄 they paved the way for the livable ecosystem we know today.
@@arvantsaraihan5777 Yep. It was probably sponges that were able to survive Snowball Earth twice 600 million years ago that kept the spark of life going on our planet. That spark was able to explode into countless forms of life.
I love these videos that give a brief history of Earth, but I think it would be really cool if you guys did specific videos about extinct species, including interesting facts about their behavior, diet, and overall characteristics. I understand that not a lot is known about many prehistoric creatures, but I'd love to find what there is to know. Thanks for all the great videos!
civilizations comes and go, extinction comes and go, we know what came before us, we don't really know what will come after us, loving this channel, great stuff.
Hi, I know you have seen a thousand of these comments but this is my humble contribution..(watched all Enos videos) Thank you :-) I don't want to sound basic, but I am grateful you are making videos that help those of us without access to scientific history to understand the critical transformations of ancient time. Many schools in certain counties ban teaching of these brilliant discoveries in paleontology - even today (2021). PBS please continue this river of knowledge. Kallie is awesome! but Blake is my boi!! You both make me want to KNOW :D
I'm going to add my voice to the ones saying we love the longer videos. This has become now one of my favourite videos on your channel, not only because of the lenght, but also because of the topic. I wonder, after you do the one on periods, could you make some about epochs? Or maybe ancient ecosystems like the one on Hell's Creek (the one they're doing for Saurian the game). Anyway, awesome content. Thanks :)
To think of modern homo sapiens sapiens as index fossils for the future really was a humbling concept. It has shaken me up. It makes me want to rethink everything. And isn't that what education is about. This is a phenomenal, phenomenal series. I am so grateful to everyone involved in bringing this fruition.
I love this series and look forward to it each Monday. In college I took a geology class in which e got to examine some fossils. There was a crystallized bone to a now extinct cephalopod that actually had bones. I've been incredibly fascinated by that ever since. What do we know about cephalopod evolution? Is there enough of a story there to make an episode?
6:08 now that’s a word you can hear 🎶 the Cambrian Explosion 🎶 Thanks for Bill Wurtz for that earworm, I’ll never be able to hear “the Cambrian Explosion” without hearing that little jazz riff and seeing that multicolored splash of text.
Love this video. The length is great and the content even better. My only complaint with this channel is that you guys always showed the geological time periods upside down (with the oldest time periods on top and the youngest on bottom). With this episode you finally flipped it correctly. I hope you stick with that! Great stuff. Keep it up!
This is an early edition of what must be the best of its kind. As an educational resource it must have been the route map for maybe millions of educators. By linking geology, biology and chemistry (with occasional forays into elements of astrophysics) you really hit the 'sweet spot' of how seemingly disparate 'subjects' are fundamentally connected and this is a massive help in the education of early to mid teenage students. If I have one gripe it is that some presenters speak too quickly and unless subtitles are baked into editions much of the value can be lost. The English is clear enough but US English does have a tendency to be 'rapid-fire'. Accent is not the problem but speed and emphasis and some presenters appear to have a more Canadian tone with more sentence contours and vocal paragraphs. With the compliments of a very old retired teacher who cannot help but still teach...............
Paleozoic ended with an extinction event, Mesozoic ended with a meteor, and they Cenozoic ended with nuclear warfare destroying the planet with deadly radioactive elements such as uranium and plutonium.
@@tliltocatlalbopilosa1513 I've read somewhere you could look at lifeforms in the desert to puzzle out how organisms would evolve in radioactive environments. Dehydration and strong sun is something that affects dna in a similiar way
Whooops. Today I learned the difference between aardvarks and anteaters. That one is on me. (They both exist during the Phanerozoic Eon so at least I got that right) -Seth
PBS Eons holy crap there’s a difference, I always thought anteater was just a fun and silly nickname for kids that couldn’t pronounce aardvark correctly… like me
I love this! I would love to know more about the Proterozoic eon and the boring billion years. I doubt they are actually boring, eukaryotes evolved during this time.
I feel extremely lucky to be living in this specific part in time when science allows us to find some of these things out.

I just discovered this channel. I'm loving it
Great Video :) Really love the longer ones, and host is awesome !
I am truly humbled by that last remark on how our bodies will be the next markers of our time on this rock. Love this channel so much!
Totally wiped my forehead because there's some iridium on the left side

I love this channel it really teaches me a lot of facts about periods and what they are broken into also the history of earth.
As a geologist student: fantastic video!
Hi, I know you have seen a thousand of these comments but this is my humble contribution..(watched all Enos videos)
Thank you :-)
I don't want to sound basic, but I am grateful you are making videos that help those of us without access to scientific history to understand the critical transformations of ancient time.
Many schools in certain counties ban teaching of these brilliant discoveries in paleontology - even today (2021).
PBS please continue this river of knowledge.
Kallie is awesome! but Blake is my boi!!
You both make me want to KNOW :D
I'm going to add my voice to the ones saying we love the longer videos. This has become now one of my favourite videos on your channel, not only because of the lenght, but also because of the topic. I wonder, after you do the one on periods, could you make some about epochs? Or maybe ancient ecosystems like the one on Hell's Creek (the one they're doing for Saurian the game).
Anyway, awesome content. Thanks :)
To think of modern homo sapiens sapiens as index fossils for the future really was a humbling concept. It has shaken me up. It makes me want to rethink everything. And isn't that what education is about. This is a phenomenal, phenomenal series. I am so grateful to everyone involved in bringing this fruition.
The planet is littered with our bones (graves). Whomever finds our remains will have full specimens. Crazy to think about.
Thank you for making this video, really help me to understand the whole process in a very interesting way.
Luv, luv, luv your science documentaries. Kudos! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love this series and look forward to it each Monday. In college I took a geology class in which e got to examine some fossils. There was a crystallized bone to a now extinct cephalopod that actually had bones. I've been incredibly fascinated by that ever since. What do we know about cephalopod evolution? Is there enough of a story there to make an episode?
6:08 now that’s a word you can hear 🎶 the Cambrian Explosion 🎶
Thanks for Bill Wurtz for that earworm, I’ll never be able to hear “the Cambrian Explosion” without hearing that little jazz riff and seeing that multicolored splash of text.
This was a brilliant episode. Loved watching this ❤️
Just came across these videos these are amazing! Thank you for all your hard work!
Blake is an awesome host! Really liking this series so far =)
Wow this is such an intense amount of detail so quickly, brilliant, have to rewind a few times though.
Love this video. The length is great and the content even better. My only complaint with this channel is that you guys always showed the geological time periods upside down (with the oldest time periods on top and the youngest on bottom). With this episode you finally flipped it correctly. I hope you stick with that! Great stuff. Keep it up!
This is an early edition of what must be the best of its kind. As an educational resource it must have been the route map for maybe millions of educators.
By linking geology, biology and chemistry (with occasional forays into elements of astrophysics) you really hit the 'sweet spot' of how seemingly disparate 'subjects' are fundamentally connected and this is a massive help in the education of early to mid teenage students.
If I have one gripe it is that some presenters speak too quickly and unless subtitles are baked into editions much of the value can be lost.
The English is clear enough but US English does have a tendency to be 'rapid-fire'. Accent is not the problem but speed and emphasis and some presenters appear to have a more Canadian tone with more sentence contours and vocal paragraphs.
With the compliments of a very old retired teacher who cannot help but still teach...............
Paleozoic ended with an extinction event, Mesozoic ended with a meteor, and they Cenozoic ended with nuclear warfare destroying the planet with deadly radioactive elements such as uranium and plutonium.

@@tliltocatlalbopilosa1513 I've read somewhere you could look at lifeforms in the desert to puzzle out how organisms would evolve in radioactive environments. Dehydration and strong sun is something that affects dna in a similiar way
@@tliltocatlalbopilosa1513 Radiotrophic fungi, already a thing :)
Used this video in a UA-cam tutorial - love it! PBS Digital rocks!!
I really like the longer videos. Maybe do a video on the changes of the continent, to the 7 we have now.
Or is it 8? Could we add Zoolandia to the mix???
😁😁😁😁😁
5:41 ...this made my day... I can't tell you why, it's just... beyond awesome 😀
Just another perspective, if you compressed earth's history into one day humans appear roughly 0.5sec before midnight
I love all your videos! I love the way you summarized the gts, it was so much fun!
When the science teacher plays this and everyone in the class start yelling when he says "hell" 3:44
That was very informative, I think the magnitude of it though for me was a bit much but has led me to finding a series of this. Fascinating.
can we get a look at the evolution of plants?
Just a awesome recap of Earths History!!! Thank You 🙏
GodDAMN, this channel rocks my socks
I’m glad I have something to look forward to and love watching videos like this!
THIS IS HUGE AND AMAZING VIDEO :) I must say thank you for making this video :)
I love this videos about Geology and Biology and everything together.
5:38 this is not an aardvark...
Whooops. Today I learned the difference between aardvarks and anteaters. That one is on me.
(They both exist during the Phanerozoic Eon so at least I got that right)
-Seth
PBS Eons holy crap there’s a difference, I always thought anteater was just a fun and silly nickname for kids that couldn’t pronounce aardvark correctly… like me
Is that like the "this is not a pipe" painting?
Aardvarks with guns!
They'll let anyone buy them in the US, even prehistoric time-travelling aardvarks. Sad.
The best bedtime channel
I love this! I would love to know more about the Proterozoic eon and the boring billion years. I doubt they are actually boring, eukaryotes evolved during this time.
Thank you so much for making this channel
This is the video my science teacher just sent us to watch while in quarantine
same
Same!
Best overview of the topic I have seen until now
I like big time and I can not lie!
You otha brothas can't deny
Huh?
wichitazen they are referencing the song “i like big butts”, correlating the previous comment with said song accordingly :)
….I swear I just saw another comment of yours with the same format but on a video about bugs, bet you can guess what the change was
I absolutely loved this episode. I learn more from this channel than I do in geography class.
6:09 🎶 Cambrian Explosion 🎶
T H E S U N I S D E A D L Y L A S E R
So much for the bibull...
Thanks!
🎶not anymore there's, a blanket🎶
k this role play is pretty funny🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥💯💖
Hey china's back together oh wait now its broken agaaaiiin.
Any time I start watching eons, I binge for WAAAAAYYYY too long.
