The Permian Period: When Earth Became a Planet From Hell | Science Documentary

The Permian Period: When Earth Became a Planet From Hell | Science Documentary There was a time when Earth came closer to total biological collapse than at any other moment in its history. During the Permian Period, the supercontinent Pangaea stretched across the planet, creating a world of extreme heat, expanding deserts, suffocating oceans, and ecosystems pushed to their limits. Strange predators roamed the land while life struggled to survive beneath an increasingly unstable climate. In this Science Documentary, we explore how the Permian world transformed from a thriving ecosystem into the setting of the greatest mass extinction ever recorded. This Science Documentary reveals the rise of Pangaea, the deadly effects of climate collapse, the Siberian Traps eruptions, and the catastrophic chain reactions that nearly erased life from Earth. Join this Science Documentary as we uncover the darkest chapter in our planet’s history.
