00:00Do you know the origin of Galactus and how a brilliant scientist became a devourer of worlds?
00:04Well, he wasn't always that cosmic giant who devours planets.
00:07Galactus was once an ordinary person named Galen from a highly advanced planet called Ta,
00:11which existed in the multiverse before ours.
00:13Galen was a scientist and astronaut until one day his people discovered something terrifying.
00:18Their planet and the entire multiverse would be destroyed by a gigantic cosmic explosion,
00:22the famous Big Bang.
00:23Galen and some astronauts decided to fly directly toward the explosion,
00:26believing they could escape everything.
00:28But everything went wrong.
00:29Everyone died except Galen.
00:30He merged with the consciousness of the universe itself and was reborn as Galactus.
00:34He remained asleep inside his ship for billions of years, slowly transforming.
00:38And when he awoke, he felt an infinite hunger,
00:41a hunger that can only be satisfied by entire planets.
00:44His own ship became his armor and he transformed into the feared devourer of worlds.
00:48At first, he even tried to consume empty planets, but that wasn't enough.
00:51Then he began devouring worlds full of life.
00:53And that's why he granted powers to his heralds,
00:55so they could choose the best planets for him to devour.
