Two quick criticisms of this documentary and others like it... 1. The producers are always trying to create drama throughout their programs. Often they compress events that took millions of years to happen into what seems to be overnight disasters thus creating drama where there isn't any. Enough with the drama!!! We tune in to learn things. We don't have to be constantly tantalized with drama to stay tuned in! 2. Producers of programs like these always assume that Humanity has ceased to evolve and will live in something like our current form for hundreds of millions or even billions of years. Come on, guys - we've not been here as Homo Sapiens for even a quarter million years! Two hundred thousand years at best! Okay, my rant is done.

[@jupitersgodzilla7114]

On the second one i thought there was a difference between anatomically modern people and behaviorally modern people?

[@michaelskywalker3089]

The events on Earth are dramatic. Drama can depict real events as well as fiction, they are no less and in fact more relevant. The extinction events affecting thousands if not millions of species over the course of a few days is the most traumatic and spectacularly terrible events that happen on the earth naturally. They only have an hour to explain decades of planetary science. The entire point of documentaries is to illustrate and in fact dramatize the events and impact on the planet and it's inhabitants. Furthermore, they clearly explain that the drift of the continents continue today and will in the future along with change itself. As well, catastrophic events happen on Earth as well. As "dramatic" as the drift of continents seem the entire convection cycle involving the mantle, deep mantle, the core and oceanic subduction zones as well as the floating granite cratons is utterly fantastic.

[@michaelskywalker3089]

As well, because we as humans are "aware" of the processes of nature and are gaining more ability to influence our biological evolution the acceptance that we must evolve into something unrecognizably different is false (imo). We will gain the choice especially within the next hundred thousand years ( if we don't become extinct or irrevocably lose our technological capability!!!) as to whether we preserve the human race as it is now, let it evolve naturally or artificially enhance /create our species and new hominid or A.I. species. Personally, I guess that people will take all three of these trans-human and human preserving/enhancing paths simultaneously depending on the district.

At 20:00, the narrator says that as the European plate drifts apart from the American plate, eventually the Atlantic Ocean will be as big as the Pacific. True, eventually the Atlantic and Pacific oceans will be equal, but during this process, the Pacific is and will continue to shrink. California is getting closer to Japan. But then, at 48:02, we see Atlantic ocean shrinking, with the Americas drifting toward Europe and Africa.

[@amacuro]

It was explained in this video. At first the Atlantic will continue to expand and move Europe/Africa away from the Americas but here is the important bit i think you missed: the Puerto Rican trench will become a SUBDUCTION zone that will start eating Atlantic plate and reverse its expansion, bringing Europe/Africa towards the Americas for the final crunch.

Great documentary! But there is a pet peeve of mine expressed at 18:20 where he suggests that the pressure from the magma oozing out of the crack is what pushes the continents apart. Wrong! The convection current in the magma drags the WHOLE continent along by its bottom surface. That pulls open a deep crack, and lava comes bubbling out of the new void, filling it with solidified magma every time it pulls apart.

[@slehar]

He says it explicitly in 25:15 "the plates are pushed apart by the pressure of the new magma at the edges". That there is (with all due respect) wrong! A convection current is a circuit, rising - cooling - sinking - heating. It is driven by the difference in density between hot and cold - hot stuff bubbles upward, cooler stuff sinks below, and the rest of the magma shifts horizontally to balance the equation. Everyone gets this wrong!

[@lissaleggs4136]

Like "fix a flat" in a can

[@whuzzzup]

@@slehar I'm afraid, you are the one that is wrong. Yes everything is driven by convection (at least this is the most accepted hypothesis), but the actual driving forces that move the plates at the moment are "slab pull" and "ridge push" - the later being plates getting pressed apart from each other by the force of the upwelling.

Love that animation, so nice to see one done by real scientist. I could be missing something but I don't understand why there is a question where water came from, hydrogen and oxygen being so very common

[@matthewc5640]

Earth is/was too close to the sun for water to exist as a solid (ice) in space. It only forms ice past the snow line which lies between Mars and Jupiter. It can't further exist as a liquid without the atmospheric pressure either, but it's the distance to the sun that would have driven off any primordial water in the area from the solar nebula. It had to have later been delivered or possibly released chemically from hydrated minerals.

[@EdLion35CT]

[@Shuffler703]

This is an old video. The ridge is not pushing plates apart. The weight of the old plate drawing down into the subduction zone pulls the plate apart at the ridge. The magma then fills in the gap. Rock at the ridge is not heavy. Rock at the subduction zone is compressed with age and sediment. It is heavy.

[@steelcityterps]

Shuffler703 okay Napoleon

[@derekobrien4703]

Nope, the "conveyor belt" mantle currents are doing the pulling; since the oceanic crust is far thinner than the continental crust, the rifts generally are in the ocean, hence the oceanic ridges that are recent volcanic features. The Mid-Atlantic ridge, with Iceland a prominent feature, is a good example. The exceptions are the rift valleys, such as the East African rift where there are three-way plate stretching taking place - the African Nubian plate, the African Somali plate and the Arabian plate - tearing the crust apart.; it appears that there is a "super-plume" of rising heated mantle material driving this situation. The "conveyor-belts" carry the plates to their destination, whether it be in subduction zones, crested by volcanic island arcs, or in plate collision where upthrust mountain chains develop, such as the Himalayas, Andes, European Alps, and US/Canadian Rocky Mountains.

[@phoenixshade3]

Derek O'Brien Actually, shuffler703 is right. It's called "slab pull", and it is the strongest of the three main forces driving tectonic motion. (The other major forces are ridge push, which is not caused by upwelling magma but rather by gravity attempting to "flatten" the mid-ocean ridges; and slab suction, which is caused when part of the subducted slab breaks free and sinks into the mantle, inducing a current which pulls on the remaining slab.) The "conveyor belt" idea is just wrong. Continental motions are *faster* than lateral motions in the mantle. It doesn't convey the continents; in fact it creates *drag* on them.

[@whuzzzup]

@@phoenixshade3 Thank you for the comment regarding ridge push. I had the 'old' idea and did not know it was because of the lithosphere sliding downwards.

[@ryanvalk7841]

so if the land that began at the bottom of the sea and ends up at the top of the mountian then wouldnt we find the oldest core samples of rock be at the top of the mountain

[@deltabluesdavidraye]

Ryan Valk pretty much

[@paulamattingly4461]

No, the ocean crust is the youngest rock as it is what subducts and melts in trenches. Continents are too light to subduct and so push together creating mountain ranges. Iirc, the oldest ocean crust to date is only Jurassic age or 65 million years old. And once mountains begin to push up, they immediately begin to erode. There have been three mountain ranges, for example, where the American Appalachians are now. The Appalachians are also the oldest mountains on Earth. Pretty interesting stuff!

[@jeffreyevans3160]

the sea floor can end up at the top of the mountain , but the sea floor still has older rock beneath it (usually) . it just all uplifts together . sometimes the layers of rock can uplift in some areas and not in others . the uplifted layers can fold in places . sometimes these folds can actually fall over . that is where you might be able to find younger rock beneath older rock .

Theory: On how water got here, and the biblical firmament described : I don't know why all the narratives say that scientist don't know how the water got here. And when they mention ice rocks from space, they describe it as a separate sequence after the molten rocks cooled. I ask, well why would not all the ingredients for waters have been there in the beginning along with all the other stuff? My thoughts are that when all the material from the blown up star came together with gravity pulling more stuff in, there was also the Oxygen and Hydrogen among all of the elements. During all the violent action and heat and electromagnet reactions, water vapors formed of the gases and rose above the heat of the earth up into space where it would freeze and hold as a sheet of ice surrounding the earth. Any that would try to fall wouldn't get very far as the heat would not allow it. This is how I decipher the "firmament" of the heavens. The ice wall surrounding the earth would hold in excess gasses from escaping and would become our atmosphere when the earths magma settles and cools. At that point the ice firmament would be so refined that it would have been like a clear glass bubble. Touching on the great flood in Genesis. When God opened the heavens, this is when the ice wall would finally be able to fracture and collapse. Hurtling from space at a high velocity, the ice melts by the friction of the atmosphere, and the 40 days and 40 nights of intense rainfall floods the earth to give it the oceans.

The "Continental Drift Theory" was adopted by another consensus of scientists on the work of Abraham Ortelius in 1596, that Alfred Wegener in 1912 expanded upon by connecting animal and plant life and geological rocks to the continents along the Atlantic Ocean and was rejected by scientist by lack of evidence of any motive mechanism. Then came Arthur Holmes with his mantle convection theory and the scientist accepted his Plate Tectonics Theory where the spreading of the seafloor was validated in the late 1950s and early 1960s, but we know less about our seafloor than we do about space. This Continental Drift Theory relies upon the Atlantic Ocean spreading and Subduction of one side of a Continental Plate going underneath another Continental Plate someplace else, and Mountain Ridges pushed upward, that by theory the Earth's size remains the same. While there is no evidence of the North American Plate, Eastern Eurasian Plate, African Plate and Antarctic Plates being "Subducted" to account for the spreading of the Atlantic Ocean. There is just too much "Theory" and not enough Evidence to support the Pangea and other "Supercontinent" theories that have the rest of the Earth covered in water, breaking up into our current Continents and some islands - but not those created by volcanoes - that have vast areas on them with flora and fauna fossils from Salt Water in high elevations - as indicated around 35:35 minutes in the video - where his theory is that the American Continent was thrust upward. While that theory does not fit the North American Seaway (NAS) lasted 60 million years and became mostly dry land 70 million years ago by fossils of flora and fauna and where the vast Shell Oil Fields in the NAS are found, The White Cliffs of Dover are also fossil evidence of 150 to 60 million years ago fits the Ocean Level of the NAS 1,300 to 70 million years ago that have different elevations. But the not around the Grand Canyon around 6,800 feet, fossils for flora and fauna are 1,200 to 470 million years ago, doesn't support that the area of the Grand Canyon increased in elevation. What it does support is that our Earth was covered in water back to the time of 1,200 million years ago (1.2 billion years) when the fossils at the Grand Canyon were living above sea level. Everywhere around Earth is evidence where the action of water eroding mountains is found at high elevations, suggesting a Smaller Earth with deep oceans before any of the first microorganisms existed. The Expanding Earth Theories are that our Ocean Floors have been expanding between the Continents this lowering the Ocean Level with each Expansion of the Ocean Floors at different times for over 4.543 Billion Years. As pointed out above we know more about space than of our Ocean Floors when these Continental Drift and Tectonic Plates Theories were adopted. We did not have Submarines or deep water testing equipment that could go to the depths of the most of the Ocean Floors nor the techknowlogies to sample the Rock Formations - underneath the sedimentary layers of silt and decaying matter - to map the Ocean Floor Rocks and date them. This has been done since the 1960s and these dated rock formations give a clear picture of an Expanding Earth. An Animation by Scott Adams - the Dilbert cartoon guy - took these geological dated formations and created several videos showing how on a timescale the Earth Expanded. This answers all the problems those Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics fail to answer. Instead of the Continents Rising, the Widening of the Ocean Floors lowered the water that covered the Earth. What now needs to be done, is to match those Expansions to the rings on mountains where water caused erosion and to the fossils records. Because as the Oceans Expanded to lower the Sea Level there were also several Icehouse Glacial Maximums and Hothouse Glacial Minimums that covered different amounts of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. It explains the "Snowball Earth" 715 Million Years Ago having Glaciers to the Equator by a smaller sized Earth. Compared to the Pangea Supercontinent Theory " formation 335 Million Years Ago that continued to about 175 Million Years Ago it "began to break up" but the theory includes that the India Plate began collide with the Asian Plate just 35 Million Years Ago...can all be seen in an Expanding Earth that also includes mountain ranges being formed.

Part 1 I found it far too important to not stop and comment on this subject. And more specifically, an opportunity to express an opinion as to the true and accurate description of the mechanism involved. It’s interesting when you consider how much the standard model is dependent on the mantle having a convection regime. The great Arthur Holmes is credited to its acceptance in geology and the suggestion it could be the missing energy source to drive the tectonic plates. But, he also readily admitted it could be wrong. To date there is no direct observable evidence of the mantle having an up welling of lower density material resembling a convective cell or even a conveyor belt type of mantle movement beneath the tectonic plates. The standard model is only speculative in these regards. But even more importantly, the surface observations over the years have continually presented evidence of a mechanism of plate movement far different than what convection could provide. The mantle appears instead to be a solid state material that is 2,900 km thick, with pressures so great that at only 100 to 250 kilometers carbon can be squeezed into a diamond matrix. There are now a growing number of researchers who are skeptical of the standard model’s over-dependence on such an overly simplistic idea. Prof. Don L. Anderson of the Caltech seismological lab., had with many other geologists made critical assessment of the standard model. authors.library.caltech.edu/25038/122/Chapter%201.%20Origin%20and%20early%20history.pdf New Theory of the Earth Anderson, Don L. (2007) New Theory of the Earth. Cambridge University Press , New York. ISBN 9780521849593. @t "Because of the combined effects of temperature and pressure on physical properties, shallow stratification may be reversible - leading to plate tectonics - while deep dense layers may be trapped at depth." "Conventional (Rayleigh- Benard) convection theory may have little to do with plate tectonics." Convection is so poorly defined that it is difficult to consider it even a viable working hypothesis unless there is some direct observable evidence that it can make anything resembling a prediction of observation. Carlo Doglioni, the geophysicist and former president of the Italian Geological Society, and since April 2016, the president of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology has published some very remarkable papers in regard to mantle dynamics and plate tectonics. www.dst.uniro...antle_Dynamics_ MANTLE DYNAMICS AND PLATE KINEMATICS Carlo Doglioni, La Sapienza University, Rome, Italy Roberto Sabadini, University of Milan, Italy ". . . . . none of the proposed models of mantle convection can account for the simpler pattern in plate motion we observe at the surface, nor has a unique solution been proposed for how material in the mantle convects. At the moment there is no way to link mantle dynamics and plate kinematics at the surface, considering that the mantle and lithosphere are detached. The Atlantic and Indian ridges are in fact moving apart with respect to Africa, proving not to be fixed both relative to each other and relative to any fixed point in the mantle. This evidence confirms that ocean ridges are decoupled from the underlying mantle." This remarkable observation above expresses the reality of the situation. Geologists need convection to be a viable solution to plate movement, but after 90 years, its existence, let alone its functionality, remains unanswered in the standard model. www.electroplatetectonics.com/

[@jamesthomas8481]

I believe in your observations and research greatly. Additionally I think the ice shelves are moving like an ice cube on a wood surface. At some point there is a layer of liquid that forms from contact and pressure which then allows the shifting of these shelves. Similar yet slower and more precisely driven by our land massed plates that I believe are riding on the molten earth. Do you agree or disagree?

What about tyres.....do they decay? Just curious......

[@ForOdinAndAsgard]

+Arnab Biswas Yes tires decay over time but the speed at which is very dependent on how much sulfur is in there and whether or not it is a natural or synthetic rubber. High sulfur natural rubber decays fastest, low sulfur synthetic the slowest. Most tires we normally use start with drying out eventually loosing all flexibility (low sulfur synthetic). A simple chalk cover and keeping them out of direct sunlight can extend shelf life for about 5 to 10 years. Once under your car tear and wear will get them going for tops 4 years but if you wanna be safe you change every 2 years. Driving the wrong tire for the conditions you are driving in will ruin your tires and their life expectancy can be halved. It is therefor not uncommon car owners often have more than one set. I myself live in the Netherlands so I have 3 sets. A winter, a summer and an all seasons for the spring and autumn. The winter and summer I renew every 4 years* and the all seasons every 2 years (*or earlier if needed). There is mostly a colored line in your tire on which you can check your wear and tear else you can check with a caliper. One time so far I had too replace the winter premature for a close call on which I hit the curb badly to avoid disaster. Only victim, my right rear tire but when one goes you need too replace at least the corresponding one on the other side. At the garage they had a very good discount so I changed all four anyway once there and got a free outlining (needed too because the hit had put my right rear tire almost 1 and a half degree out of the lead). I am the proud owner of a Mitsubishi Mirage 1992 coupe imported into Europe. Lovely sportive and female. 130 hp on a body of slightly less than a metric tonnage. Roundabout 8 seconds to the 100 km/h. Yeah, yeah there are faster cars but look at that year. 1992! Getting parts is still easy so she will drive some more. She is mostly compatible with the first Mitsubishi Lancers except for plating and the glass canopy (If I break my front shield I am pretty much fucked). She was meant to fill the market space in between the Colt and the Lancer together with a hatchback and sedan version but never came into production for the European market. She was originally only released in Japan, Australia and the United States of America. Not much were build either so she has become quite rare, especially here in the Occident. PS: read the manual of your car manufacturer, there is a list in there with the recommended tires for every possible condition and minimum profile height (for your caliper).
