The First Life on Earth

Life is a defining characteristic of the Earth. It hasn't just emerged on this planet, it thrives in every last corner. Today, there are hundreds of trillions of organisms alive, spanning across millions of species - and that is less than 1% of the total number of living things that have ever called this place home. In this video, we will go back to the beginning, when the Earth was a fiery ball of molten rock, to look at how life emerged on Earth, with the very first cells.
