And the clues that unlock the mystery can be found scattered across australias sunburnt face. Im richard smith, and this is an amazing country. Ill show you that every rock has a history, every creature a tale of survival against the odds. Join me on an epic journey across a mighty continent and far back in time. Of all continents on earth, none preserve the great saga of our planet and the evolution of life quite like this one. Nowhere else can you so simply jump in a car and travel back to the dawn of time. In this episode, the beginning of it all. From a cosmic maelstrom, a planet is born. This is no paradise, but somehow, life gains a toehold, then is nearly frozen out. This is the tale of the first australians, how they survived and flourished. From australias ancient stones comes the story of our world. Australias first four billion years awakening, right now on nova. Major funding for nova is provided by the following boeing where the drive to build Something Better inspires us
