Oldest and Newest Places on Earth

It all begins with a simple question: Is it possible to travel to the oldest and newest places on Earth? Joe Scott looks into it, and it turns into the trip of a lifetime, actually billions of lifetimes, spanning 10,000 miles and 4 billion years. The journey reveals the story of a planet constantly remaking itself and the fragility of the life that inhabits it, forcing consideration of the ephemeral nature of our present world and the incomprehensible nature of deep time. Encounters with rocks spark an existential crisis, all conveyed through Joe Scott's trademark wit and humor.
