Earth's Timeline

Students have been working in groups to research data on the following subjects relating to the history of the biosphere: temperature, composition of the atmosphere, plate tectonic, paleobiology, geological periods, crucible events. They then incorporated them into a timeline, showing the relationship between geology, biology, earth chemistry and sometimes even extra terrestrial influences (gravitational pull, asteroid strikes, etc.).


On this 4.5 meters timeline representing the 4.5 billion years of Earth's history, 40 000 years of human history was represented by a single vertical line, the width of a human hair. This will be our next object of study.
