Excellent!

If I could make a mandatory listening list for humans, this would be on it. It’s good for us to remember the incredibly long time the Earth has been here and all the different ways the Earth has been, and how short human history really is.

Please market this!

I absolutely loved my walk through space and time, it opened up more questions in my mind than answers; questions that we should all be asking of ourselves. I only came upon this through happenstance on the App Store, and of course will share it with others, but I would urge the developers to market this further as there is more value on this app than any other I have on my phone!

This is one of the best apps I have ever downloaded. I recommend it to all my friends. It’s incredible to get a reference point for the age of the earth and evolution of life that has occurred within it. Take this walk, you won’t regret it!
