  • My tiny brain likes the catchy music

  • Excllent summary !

    ---New Discovery (September 22, 2011?) announced that particles can travel faster than speed of light---

  • not saying that there isn't a god, the universe just wouldn't have needed one.

  • great video, but it probably should have been mentioned that the self-replicating molecule, DNA, encodes for proteins such as those that make up microtubules which give rise to cell structure as mentioned. So the transition from self-replicating molecules, to self-replicating molecules that function to create other molecules that aid in the replicating ability of that molecule, like microtubules, should have been mentioned.

  • how does temperature relate to electromagnetics as described in the beginning? With quarks forming baryons, eventually forming atoms with the recruitment of electrons

  • This video is so great! Thanks.  Sharing.

  • well done... but no God? hehe kidding...

  • just to point out, do correct me if im mistaken, before the sun 'runs out of fuel', the last element to be formed is iron....

  • hmm cant understand how and why the cells started self replication or is there more elaborate work done by anyone who explain that

  • the quarks animation in the beginning - where is it from? I so want to find it in high quality for an art project! Love this video!

  • @Gaia1986 Hey thats froma documentary called "The Elegant Universe"

  • men, I ve been looking for this video for months... Finally found it. Origins...that was the name...

  • You don't need to do anything to this video it is the best it possibly can be. It is about your past not Youtube or biblical texts, lol great stuff though. You will have a great influence on people in your lifetime I can tell just by this series. You will make a lasting impact on the world.

  • Great, thank you so much. You know, it's kind of ironic that sometimes I feel like it's people like you and other's who have left comments who for all I know could be from half way across the world seem to understand me more than a lot of people I've known my whole life. I wish more people would open their eyes and come out of the box. Thanks again!

  • Missing endosymbosis tho lol, its ok tho, this is really a fantastic series of videos!

  • That's funny you mention that. I just read a book on symbiogenesis. I'll have to work that in somehow.

  • brilliant!

  • actually, what i meant to say is that the video makes me think about those kind of people... the video itself is great. A lot of hard work and research put into it. Great job!

  • The thing I find most moving about this video, and its series, is that there still are people out there, who favor religious and supernatural explanaitons for how we came to be, they deny our fantastic natural heritage and the true wonder that is abiogenesis and evolution. It's just sad that these people, in a truly medieval way, still look for belonging and comfort in a deity, all the while disregarding humanity and labeling it 'sinful', when really the only comfort can be found between us.

  • ADD to this! Evolution of Microsoft, iPods, put some Latin stuff in so in 5000 years, we know how to communicate all those old languages. Include info on how humans pronounce words. Include Biblical stuff - New & Old Tes. All holy books. History of the Internet. How YouTube works.

  • Amazing, did you make this video yourself? you should work for discovery channel.

    Seriously!

  • Thank you, and I know what you mean about quarks. Unfortunately, it's hard to find video of actual quarks lol. The entire (parts I, II, and III) contains video clips from probably about 100 different dvds, mostly documentaries.

  • This is a fascinating history of the Universe. However, It would be better to portray the quarks spinning around each other, making a sphere, rather than three vibrating balls inside a sphere, which would give a better understanding of how everything is structured. Other than minor deficiencies like that, this is a very emotional, personally felt depiction rather than an impersonal textbook portrayal.

    Is this from a television program, or is it edited from different sources into this?

  • does anyone know how the opabinia regails got extinct.

  • I've always thought portraying atoms as nucleons made out of spherical protons and spherical neutrons with spherical electrons orbiting them like they're satellites around planets, has always been a bad way to do it. It's a bit misleading.

  • Stumble Win

  • Yes, the first 3 songs are by Sigur Ros ("Svefn g Englar," "Salka," and "Glosili") and the 4th is "Finale" of the Kingdom soundtrack

  • the song is Svefn-g-englar by sigur ros

  • Very cool.  What is the music? Who performs it?

  • This is science fiction!Complex and highly specialized creatures appeared abruptly and with out pre transtional forms in the cambridge explosion, if the geological time columm is correct then this accured 500mya. Involking the magic word evolution doesen't cut it anymore, there has to be a scientific plausible pathway, mutations do not increase information and molecular homology is a theory in crisis punch key words [problems with molecular homology] see what scientist are saying 4yourself

  • au contraire. its pretty easy for me to understand how an explosion in forms occurs. nothing worth dwelling on really.

  • Id love to hear more about it please continue.

  • no, not enough room here in youtube to elaborate matters like those. lets just say its a simple consequence of a critical mass (amount, rather), emergent properties and unclaimed biotopes.life burst all over the place because it could, later it sorted itself out and time chiseled the species down to a slim ideal. entropy etc. take a look at the night sky.take another look at it 50 billion years from now.similar principle,but ignoring evolution and mutations however. that's all im gonna say here.

  • Hey buddy are you high or somthing, I mean you are kidding me right? Ill give you credit, you have a great imagination.

  • Great response, you really came up with some hard logical arguments there. Let me guess: you're into Intelligent Design or some other obscure POV aren't you ?

  • Saying "mutations do not increase information" is weakest and most pathetic strawman attack possible in this context (new species arising). Because: how the effing hell would new species appear if not by mutations and selection dude? Oh man...

    You're the one who's high mate, and I don't mean your IQ either. You must believe aliens visited our planet and artificially created all those species then. Haha. I love youtube.

  • I dont subscribe to panspermia but some in exobiology do, but you raise a good question about "how the effing hell would new species appear if not by mutations" from molecue to man nobody knows, if it was scientificaly testable, this post and a million others like it would not exist, debates in universities around the world would not exist on this subject. There are many pre eminent scientist who dont subscribe to macro evolution.

  • Dawkin's considers it possible.

  • panspermia explains how organic molecules got to earth in a great variety and amount. not any kind of cambrian species diversication.

    im pretty sure its what i said. complexity threshold + new emergent properties allowing new styles of predating and "eating" and also new territories finally being able to be claimed, such as the deep see etc, due to an increase in oxygen and organic particles for example (unclaimed biotopes/ecological niches part of what i said).

  • Who are you responding too? Dawkins considers it possible that aliens laid life on earth. Howver, the aliens themselves would have to be evolved. As far as organic molecules... read a bio book, organic molecules can be make from inorganic ones. It was discovered by mistake and debunked vitalism.

  • youtube keeps bugging the answers.

    who cares if dawkins considers it possible. it still hasnt got anything to do with what we were talking about. its an entirely different topic. not that it not interesting though.

    thanks for the tip about reading books. i did that a lot when i studied biology at a university. its true that organic molecules can be synthesised from inorganic building blocks.

  • "What evidence do you have for this?"

    It's more of a logical hypothesis. It's being ambiguous for a reason though. No reason to jump to a magic act. I as a Christian view Intelligent Design ideals as a mockery of my God's creation.

    "the Big Bang isn't matter flying apart in space - it's space itself expanding"

    The expansion is accepted as being enabled by the collision of hadrons.

  • "Tiny, vibrating strans of energy ..."

    What evidence do you have for this?

  • There is no evidence for this, as you probably know. It is just theory at this point and based on the suggested size of these strands, they would be too small to see, so it probably always will be theory.

  • This is quite beautiful. Not only do you convey accurate scientific information (okay, string theory's speculative but the rest is all very good science), you manage to put it across in a beautiful way that makes me feel connected to the Cosmos. I feel like this is my real story and not just something I can read in a textbook. Thanks for making science as beautiful as it should be. :)

    Off to watch parts II and III...

  • Thank you, its nice to know other people appreciate our past as much as I do. And yes, although the video portrays how I personally came to be, I'd say about 95% of the video is the same for all of us... so we all have alot in common :)

  • Things puzzles me about the Big Bang theory. If matter cannot travel faster than light then shouldn't all the matter in this universe be compacted in a smaller area seeing the age of the matter here is younger than the universe. Also if the galaxies were formed from gravity then wouldn't gravity still be pulling matter inward towards the black holes in their centers? Astronomers have found that the stars are all moving away from their black holes, opp. to theory. So how can Big Bang be accepted?

  • Space and time did not exist prior to the big bang. They were created by it. And at the moment of the big bang itself, there was no matter, only pure energy. This energy later became matter. In response to the second point, many objects, as you know, do get pulled into black holes, others have enough velocity to fly past the holes gravitational pull. Only in situations where an objects velocity is perfectly offset by a black holes gravitational pull do orbits and large scale systems form.

  • Your video was great. Many valid questions cannot be answered with the current BB theory. Like old galaxies some 100 billion light years away, matter in our galaxy is not even that old and yet old galaxies are found at the extents of our universe, not hot gas and radiation like theorized. Do you think the new evidence will even change the old theories?

  • What cueking said.

    But you say astronomers have found stars are moving away from their black holes; I think you're confusing the fact that galaxies are flying apart (i.e. the Big Bang and the expanding Universe) with stars moving apart within galaxies. They aren't; galaxies are too strongly bound by gravity to expand.

  • Also, the Big Bang isn't matter flying apart in space - it's space itself expanding, like a balloon blowing up. Think of dots on a balloon - they move apart as the rubber expands, but they don't move through the rubber. So don't think about the speeds of matter and energy through space - space is expanding at the same rate everywhere, so the speed at which matter and energy are "moving away from us" depends only on their distance from here - and remember it's SPACE expanding, not stuff moving.

  • Wouldn't the dots also expand along with the rest of the balloon? What your saying is that the space between the dots expand and the dots on the balloon get smaller? Are you sure? Look up 2DF Sloan Sky survey. What is causing the expansion against gravity. LOL, I bet your going to say dark matter. Well okay then dark matter must be between earth and the moon too because the moon moves away form the earth by a couple of inches each year, right? Does the earth move away form the sun too? Explain.

  • I don't quite get what you mean. Galaxies aren't expanding, neither are stars, planets, solar systems, or clusters of galaxies. These are all tightly bound together by gravity and stay the same size throughout their lifetimes. The expansion of the Universe is very weak and only becomes apparent on VERY large distances where gravity can hardly be felt, i.e. between clusters of galaxies.

    The expansion is being caused by a combination of the momentum outwards from the Big Bang and (continued)

  • and dark energy (not the same as dark matter - dark matter actually holds things TOGETHER with its gravity, not causes expansion!) It's not hard to hold it up against gravity if the density of the Universe is less than the cosmic "critical density," which it seems to be.

    The Moon moving away from the Earth is something very different from the expansion of the Universe. There are probably several videos about how it's caused on YouTube, but the gravity is too strong between Earth and Moon for..

  • the expansion of the Universe to win out over gravity on such a small scale.

  • Ok, fuck string theory.

    Other than that, a great video. Good, music, good graphics. Can't wait for part 2.

  • Thanks, part II should be up in about 45 mins
