Ger inspired by Science – Learn about the history of life and dream of utopian civilizations.

When we think about alien civilizations we tend to look into the vastness of space, to far away planets. But there is another incredibly vast dimension that we might be giving too little thought to: time.
Could it be that over the last hundreds of millions of years, other civilizations existed on earth? Indigenous technological species that rose and died out? And that they or their artifacts are buried beneath our feet? What does science have to say about this and what are the implications for us?

yyyyaaaayyy
excuse my ignorance but there would be a possibility that there is intelligent life and a civilization in the depths of the sea, if the whale and dolphin were mammals that adapted to the sea, there would be no probability that a hominid would have done the same and adapted to the sea It would be great to see a video like this! Your videos are the best
Was that a JoJo reference?!
@Outlaws for life probably not I’m not sure
Can you please do a video about how plannets like earth are created
Leave it to this channel to always have the most well researched fascinating topics. Mad respect for their consistency.
not THAT well reaserched. bob lazar is not lying about the origin of some of the tech at area s4
Leave it to this guy to not have a mustache
These guys and infographics are the most interesting, reliable, and worth while Chanel’s on yt
You again
stop comment botting lol
“Just assuming something happened, because we don’t have evidence against it, is a trap we should avoid.”
This is my favorite quote from this video.
Modern Megalodon believers: “Im going to pretend I didnt hear that”
Indirect proofs: proving negatives since Ancient Greece.
I like that this thought experiment did a lot to address the challenges of bias in case studies, even without being explicit to the topic. A lot of assumptions (e.g.what to study) are not beneficial to empirical investigation, but turning an assumption into a valid hypothesis for study is simply scientific. Wie immer, danke schön Kurzgesagt <3
My favorite lovecraft stories were always the ones that dealt with ancient non-human civilizations on earth that existed millions of years ago. It really sparks the imagination to wonder about all the things that could’ve happened in the millions of years that we werent around, and also what horrible things couldve possibly brought an end to those civilizations.
I’m thrilled to see this topic on Kurzgesagt. The more we understand our past, the more we can understand who we are on the deepest level.
Tartary video next
They really take quality over content to heart. The production value and research that goes into each and every one of these videos is absolutely amazing! Keep it up Kurzgesagt
The infographics show – quantity
Kurzgesagt – quality
@Mishan 🅥 dude what the heck don’t go criticizing these guys they probably do waaaaaaaay more than you
@Don’t read my profile picture ok
dont read my name
@Don’t read profile photo ok
It’s definitely good to note the genetic progression that led to our own incredible intelligence. It’s hard to estimate the probability of our specific brain mutations that have given us the opportunity to progress so rapidly but it would be key to recognizing how other organisms might come to the same complexity.
“We shouldn’t use our imagination to trick ourselves into thinking we know anything about our blind spots.
Just assuming anything happened because we don’t have evidence against it, is a trap we should avoid.”
Well said!
@faith in his blood Take your superstitious nonsense elsewhere.
@Deconverted Man IRONIC
@faith in his blood exactly what nonsense are you spewing here – none of that has anything to do with the video, the quote, or anything else. this is so incoherent. so detached from reality that I think you are a bot – programed to spam channels with rot
@faith in his blood ironic
It really is something many people don’t realize is just how old the earth is in comparison to us. We are, in the grand scheme of time, a young thing. I even told my friend that there could of been civilizations before humans and the only reason we don’t know of them is cause virtually little survived that showed they existed. While its purely speculation, its a fun idea to ponder.
