"100 Million Years of Earth's History in Mesmerizing Animation"

A new animation showcasing Earth’s evolution has surfaced in a new paper published in the journal Science. The animation was created using a new model, which highlights over 100 million years of history on our planet, including topographical changes – the creation of oceans and mountains – and sediment activity caused by erosion. The model showcases Earth’s evolution using a mesmerizing animation that is impossible not to appreciate. The hope is to create a tool scientists can use to understand the past and how Earth has changed.
