Home: The Story of Earth

Looking down at our planet from space, we see how thin the layer of precious air is. This remarkable atmosphere makes Earth a home for life as we know it.

In the epic journey from the mineral-heavy early seas to the life-nurturing oceans and river systems of today, the story of this living planet is carried by water.

Fossil finds and satellite imagery have allowed us to paint pictures of the terrestrial realm with entirely new palettes, offering a pathway to potential solutions for the challenges we face.

Humans are one of the most influential species of all time, but our endeavours have had conflicting impacts on the planet.
