Earth - The Making of a Planet

Join us today on Far Future Horizons as we take an incredible photographic odyssey thorough time and space to record every major event in our planet’s four and a half billion years of history.

Pangaea Ultima and the End of Man

Today on Far Future Horizons we continue our Two Hundred and Fifty Million year time odyssey with Clash of the Continents (Part 2) - The End of Man.


In the second part of Clash of the Continents we join our intrepid astronaut as he explores a future Earth drastically altered by geological forces into an utterly alien landscape. He will cross the vast desert of the super continent of Pangaea Ultima in search of traces of humankind and its once great cities. But, with all humanity’s landmarks dissolved away his only hope is to find a fossilized city that has survived nature’s implacably powerful forces. Perhaps he can find New Orleans, which would have been buried under the Mississippi Delta. What will the evidence he finds reveal: further evolution, or the destruction of our species?

This and other exciting National Geographic Channel documentaries can be purchased on DVD from their online store.

Stone Age Apocalypse

Human evolution is believed to have begun some six million years ago. Yet, despite the passage of so much time, the diversity of the DNA genetic code of all humans is minute.

Some Seventy-five thousand years ago, something apocalyptic occurred that left relative few humans alive to carry on the species.

The cause of this bottleneck is now believed to have been a massive volcanic eruption on the Indonesian island of Sumatra.

A super-eruption from the site of Lake Toba in Sumatra blasted out more than two hundred cubic miles of ash over an area of over a million square miles.

Today on Far Future Horizons we present two documentary features concerning this prehistoric mega disaster: Naked Science - Stone Age Apocalypse and PBS NOVA’s Mystery of the Megavolcano.
