Birth of Planet Earth Appropriate for grades 5th – 12th and up Narrated by Richard Dormer. Birth of Planet Earth tells the twisted tale of our planet's origins. In the fiery beginnings of our young solar system, worlds were born and obliterated. A young sun vented its rage. Chaos reigned. How did Earth survive against all odds? This eye-opening film tracks the perilous path our planet took in its early years. The film employs advanced, data-driven, cinematic-quality visualizations to explore some of the greatest questions in science today: How did Earth become a living planet in the wake of our solar system's violent birth? What does its history tell us about our chances of finding other worlds that are truly Earth-like? Produced by Spitz Creative Media, NCSA's Advanced Visualization Lab, Thomas Lucas Productions, Inc. , in association with Tellus Science Museum. Runtime: 25 minutes Trailer
