History Channel - How the Earth Was Made Series 1 - BluRay (2009) Part 8 Yellowstone

From a seething ocean of radioactive, molten rock to a refuge for life as we know it, Earth has undergone a staggering series of cataclysmic transformations in its long and epic history. Assailed relentlessly for millions of years by meteorites, our once toxic and hostile planet has been covered in water and in ice, and seen the rise and sundering of continents, the creation of an atmosphere, and, ultimately, the beginning of life. HOW THE EARTH WAS MADE plots the twisting course of Earth's amazing journey. Using groundbreaking special effects and traveling to remote locations where our planet still bears the scars of its violent history, this compelling documentary tells a story of unimaginable timescales, world-shattering forces, radical climates, and mass extinctions. HISTORY journeys back in time to show the creation of Earth s land masses, the birth of the first complex creatures, and devastating extinctions–before speculating on the future when all life becomes extinct. Spectacular on-location footage, evidence from geologists in the field, and clear, dramatic graphics combine in this stunning 13-part series from HISTORY to show how immensely powerful, and at times violent, forces of geology have formed our planet. Investigate with HISTORY the origins of some of the most well-known locations and geological phenomena in the world. From the Great Lakes to Iceland, the San Andreas Fault to Krakatoa, HOW THE EARTH WAS MADE travels the globe to reveal the physical processes that have shaped our planet. With rocks as their clues and volcanoes, ice sheets, and colliding continents as their suspects, scientists launch a forensic investigation that will help viewers visualize how the earth has evolved and formed over millions of years. Locations covered in “How the Earth Was Made” include Hawaii, a remote island chain brought to being by the movement of super heated magma deep within the earth, to the Marianas Trench, a spot in the sea deeper than Mount Everest is high, where the ocean floor disappears into the centre of the earth. Experience all 13 episodes of this landmark series for the first time on Blu-ray.

Yellowstone is the world's first national park, and three million people visit the park each year. It was established in 1872 due in part to its unique geology. This National Park houses one of the most dangerous geological features on Earth, a hidden super-volcano overdue for a massive eruption. Despite all of the evidence indicating volcanism at Yellowstone, no smoking cone now exists, and it likely was destroyed during an ancient eruption. The presence of rhyolite indicates an explosive eruption in the past. Areas far from the park such as Meadow Creek, Wyoming display thick deposits of obsidian and tan-colored volcanic ash. Such large amounts of volcanic material indicate that Yellowstone once experienced a titanic volcanic explosion, something larger than anything ever observed in human history. This colossal eruption covered much of the western United States in volcanic ash. One ash layer studied in California provided a date of 640,000 years for the last supereruption. In the past 16.5 million years, the volcano has mysteriously moved hundreds of miles to its present, and active, location. Is this sleeping giant beginning to stir?
