Prehistoric!

Become a time-traveller and go back 4 billion years to explore our amazing prehistoric planet!

See volcanoes, asteroids and the fiery beginnings of our Earth. Witness the explosion of life on our planet. Get close up to Titlaalik, the very first creature to crawl on land and Rhizodont, the monstrous scaled fish. Fly with a pterosaur, hang out with apes, ride a mammoth - and then meet the very first humans and help to make an amazing cave painting.
