And no, for all you “Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy” smartasses, the answer isn’t 42. Enjoy!

This is absolutely terrible. Don’t trust this video.

At about 3:03 it says: hidrogen dioxide – water.
Hidrogen dioxide is not water. It’s H2O2 as any high school chemistry student should know. Water is hidrogen monoxide, because only one oxigen molecule is present. (H2O)

If they can’t get this right, they might have got the other stuff wrong too.

This really shouldn’t be put up. It’s extremely vague about things and mostly outdated. Physicists haven’t determined the “story of life, the universe, and everything” and so I don’t know how the History Channel things that they managed to and then squeezed it into a four-minute video.

In the beginning there was nothing… and then it exploded?
