100 Greatest Discoveries - Origins And EvolutionThis show attempts to explain our deep psychological questions such as, why we exist, why we try to stay alive and how we try to understand planets, other ecosystems, environment and species.

From explaining the misconceived bacterial sludge to deep sea chemosynthesis, or from the theory of comets, volcanoes and an explosion bigger than all nuclear forces, this documentary, hosted by Bill Nye, is an important summary of popular and common science theories.

This documentary discusses such topics as Charles Walcott’s analysis of the Burgess Shale; the Linnaean classification system; Darwin’s theory of natural selection; Donald Johanson’s "Lucy"; Mary Leakey’s Laetoli footprints; and Michel Brunet's Toumai skull."

    Darwinism is a religion and not science. A bird that changes beak is still a bird, or a moth that changes color is still a moth. There is no evidence of one species changing to another species, like a whale changing to a bear. False prophesy.

      If I don't understand something I try to learn about it rather than proclaiming it to be wrong. That way I don't look stupid.

      There are plenty of excellent books on evolution that explain it really well. There is tons of evidence that supports evolution, considerably more than in Darwin's time. This ranges from the fossil record to genetics and much more. It's a fascinating subject and well worth learning about it.

    I couldn't watch,,, i guess the documentary is removed from youtube. I think SeeUat Videos should start hosting the documentaries on there servers instead of presenting the users with link to vimeo or youtube.

    Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!

    If we had but 10 Bill Nyes in the public eye, we'd have a helluva lot less ignorance.

    a)Extinction and evolve... seems work hand in hand as we still have the bears, giraffe, beast, and among others... a line may just have fade away... or a branch just fell off.
    b)Neutrino and the "Serpent"... buried in the rock to never developed or evolve as cursed by God.
    c)On meteorites, we have Hawaii in the middle of the ring of fire...
    d)Chimpanzees and the Aliens... equals Lucy, the bipedal. :o)
    e)Well, we are living in a present day, so I still go with the 'story' of Adam and Eve'. :o)
