Science and History: The History and Future of Everything is all about Time.

This video does an excellent job discussing the our recent history and the technological age.  It then goes on to demonstrate ancient history and does a really great job at helping us comprehend how long that was.  In the video we then move on to Prehistoric history and the current theories about how old the Earth actually is.  The video doesn't stop there though, it keeps going into the history of the Solar System, Galaxy and Universe.  After think this video is almost over, we get into the future history of the Earth, Solar System, Galaxy and Universe.

In order to enjoy watching this video though you might have to suspend your belief system about creation and let your students know that these are all the theories, hypothesis and ideas that have been generated with our human understanding.  The video itself is really good.
