It begins like this. Two billion years ago, an amoeba. Wait, let's... let's back up.
I've skipped too many connections. Out of nothing,
in an instant... everything. An infinite cosmic orgy
of matter and energy, rubbing, bumping, and grinding together. There would be no galaxies,
no suns, no planets, no life without collisions
of heavenly bodies. Back to our amoeba. It engulfs a bacterium with unique powers,
and... voilà. Earth's first
photosynthesis-enabled organism. Maybe it was chance. Maybe it was inevitable. This one changed amoeba becomes the ancestor
of every living plant on Earth, which in turn floods the planet
with oxygen

Out of nothing,
in an instant... everything.
00:00:16.391 --> 00:00:20.562
An infinite cosmic orgy

rubbing, bumping, and grinding together.
00:00:23.094 --> 00:00:26.943
There would be no galaxies,
