這是我在網際網路上看到的我最喜歡的影片之一。(驚歎!)它將數十部科學紀錄片和特別節目的片段拼接在一起,並配上令人驚歎的音樂,youtube 使用者 UppruniTegundanna 首先追溯了人類的歷史,整合了技術和藝術的發展。然後它轉向精美地可視化了地球上最嚴重的幾次大滅絕,然後從頭開始——從大爆炸,太陽系和地球的形成,最初的分子以及我們所知的生命的進化開始。

它涵蓋了很多領域,而且做得非常好。準備好迎接連續 12 分鐘的激動和震撼吧。每次我看它都會有這種感覺,而且次數已經數不清了。

在這個影片和他的其他作品中,藝術家似乎真正領略了宇宙的宏偉壯麗。這段影片的核心是關於自然災害,接納滅絕和死亡是我們如何到達這裡的關鍵——以及我們竟然存在於此的真正敬畏。

Hannah Waters is a science writer fascinated by the natural world, the history of its study, and the way people think about nature. On top of science blogging, she runs the Smithsonian's Ocean Portal, a marine biology education website, and is science editor for Ladybits.

Hannah is a child of the internet, who coded HTML frames on her Backstreet Boys fanpage when she was in middle school. Aptly, she rose to professional science writing through blogging (originally on Wordpress) and tweeting profusely. She's written for The Scientist, Nature Medicine, Smithsonian.com, and others.

Before turning to full-time writing, Hannah wanted to be an oceanographer or a classicist, studying Biology and Latin at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota. She's done ecological research on marine food webs, shorebird conservation, tropical ecology and grassland ecosystems. She worked as a lab technician at the University of Pennsylvania studying molecular biology and the epigenetics of aging. And, for a summer, she manned a microphone and a drink shaker on a tour boat off the coast of Maine, pointing out wildlife and spouting facts over a loudspeaker while serving drinks.
