In its long and epic history, Planet Earth has undergone a staggering series of cataclysmic transformations. Assailed relentlessly for millions of years by meteorites, our once toxic and hostile planet has been covered in water and in ice, has seen the rise and sundering of continents, the creation of an atmosphere, and, ultimately, the beginning of life. HOW THE EARTH WAS MADE plots this twisting course of Earth’s amazing journey based on recent findings by renowned scientists. Filmed in remote location across the globe – from the frozen wastes of the Arctic Circle to the furnace of the North American Coast and beyond where our planet still bears the scars of its violent history -- and using groundbreaking special effects, this compelling documentary tells a story of unimaginable timescales, world-shattering forces, radical climates, and mass extinctions.
Putting the “gee!” in geology, HOW THE EARTH WAS MADE is a rollercoaster ride through the entire history of our planet, thrusts viewers into the erupting volcanoes that created land and tore it apart, plunges into the oceans with the first complex creatures, and reveals the eventual and inevitable destruction of earth.
