Using the first two liks titled 'Deep Time', you can interact with a timeline of the history of the Earth and of life. It is free, in English and French, with no sign-up and no advertising.
You can zoom from the formation of the planet to the present day, discovering the events that shaped the history of life.
Every piece of information rests on scientific publications, cited in the card of each event. Biology and geology teachers in France already use it with their students
