Storyline

This extraordinary series is a sweeping account of the rise of Earth’s continents. They are the product of a grand waltz of plate tectonics and the continual evolution of Earth’s crust. As landmasses assemble and separate, they fuel volcanoes and spark earthquakes, building mountains and tearing valleys. We see the Earth, eons in the making, through the eyes of geologists and other scientists.

    I have never really delved that much into geology, but when I was in muddle school, I remember looking at a map of the world and noticed something odd: when looking at all of the land masses it appeared to me that, like a jigsaw puzzle, some of the pieces looked like they, at least in at one point in time, fit together.

    I remember mentioning it to my teacher only to be told "You would think, huh." I never asked again but it stayed with me all these years. Imagine my curiosity when I happened upon this series while looking for some kind of documentary to watch. I figured I'd watch the first episode to see if I liked it to determine if it was for me or not. Though the order of episodes in that service was different from the order list...
