Charles Darwin’s scientific work transformed the way people think about life on Earth. From his childhood in England to his pivotal ocean voyages, he took every opportunity to study the natural world. And he helped shape a new understanding of how life forms change over time.

It also shares a look at his field research, collaborations, and scientific breakthroughs.
