The history of life, the universe and everything - visualised

This is a great visual tool . . .

How do you show everything that has ever happened? Everything. This visualisation from the Chronozoom project takes the biggest of big data - the universe itself - and makes it manageable, bringing videos, graphics and words together to picture the globe. If you roll over the scale at the top of the chart, click on origins of the modern world, jump to threshold and see just how we fit in.
