  1. I had to consume this in many small chunks because it is sort of a feast of existential dread, but the overall take home (spoilers) is positive. We have lots and lots of terrible problems and also we can work together to solve them and manage them and survive them. There is hope. #Eons #PBS #JohnGreen youtu.be/74VvCEtMPcc

  2. #PBS's #Eons #series adds to my skepticism that #life has found just the right mix of #celestial and #geological #environment and ingredients to create and sustain life as we'd recognize it, and that beings we could potentially communicate with exist at this point in time and aren't long gone, or yet to come.

    I don't believe #Earth is the only place to ever have rich, abundant life, I do wonder on the timing of such existences given the vastness of #space and #time.

  3. Speaking of time, there sure has been a lot of it! How best to convey the idea of #DeepTime? I'm a fan of a good foldout #timeline, myself, and as far as I'm concerned, #paleoartist Clémence Dupont currently reigns queen over all others with her #ABriefHistoryOfLifeOnEarth. It's the largest single time chart I've ever seen, & it's double-sided, too! One side depicts the evolving earth and biosphere, while the other side has a proportional depiction of the various #eons!
