Documentaries
Whole stories, from beginning to end, in under an hour.
The Entire History of the Universe
If the whole history of the universe fitted into a single year, the Big Bang would happen on 1 January and all of recorded human history would fit into the last 11 seconds of 31 December.
The Entire History of Earth
If the whole history of the Earth fitted into a single day, the dinosaurs would arrive at 10:47 pm, the asteroid would strike at 11:39 pm, and we would appear with less than six seconds to go before midnight.
The Entire History of Humanity
If the whole history of our species fitted into a single day, farming would arrive after eleven at night, and the pyramids, Rome, the printing press and the Moon landings would all fit into the last 22 minutes.
The Entire History of Ancient Egypt
If the whole history of ancient Egypt were a river 3,000 kilometres long, with each kilometre one year, the Great Pyramid would stand at kilometre 540 and Cleopatra just before the sea. Cleopatra lived closer in time to us than to the workers who built the Great Pyramid.
