Timelapse of the Entire Universe is a 2018

John D. Boswell. Inspired by the Cosmic Calendar, the 10-minute film is a hyperlapse of the universe from its start to current humanity, with every second representing 22 million years, with the entire humanity represented in a short time, using current knowledge. The film was originally released on Boswell's YouTube channel Melodysheep on March 7, but it was eventually taken down due to a copyright infringement regarding Morgan Freeman's voice. A revised version was uploaded 3 days later, on March 10, 2018. A year and 10 days later, a follow-up, Timelapse of the Future
, was released.

The

stellar mass black hole, a region where not even light can escape its attraction, making its gravitational singularity
invisible to outsiders.

Throughout the universe, conflicts between energy and gravity repeat every time, making a star die as a

Earth is initially in the

, representing the entirety of humanity, is shown in just a fraction (1/24) of a second.

Production

The methodology used in Timelapse of the Entire Universe.

In 2012, a short, one-and-a-half-minute film by Boswell, Our Story in 1 Minute, is published. It is a shorter version of Timelapse of the Entire Universe, specifically in one minute and 29 seconds, and used closed captions to evoke reflection on humanity. It also used imageries from this film.[1]

Boswell stated that the film "shows how young we really are and how ancient and vast our universe is."[2] The film was inspired by the Cosmic Calendar by Carl Sagan, in which Boswell later implemented it by creating a stripe similar to of the Cosmic Calendar. Research for the creation of the film was started on the Wikipedia article "Geologic time scale." Every second represents 22 million years in the film.

Boswell is supported by computer scientist Juan Benet, which makes his company

R&D
lab, credited.

Release
