Timeblazers Jen and Sam go way, way back in time to the Yucatan Peninsula and witness the disappearance of dinosaurs, due to, as most believe, a large asteroid hitting the Earth. Next, they travel to Ancient Rome, when Mount Vesuvius erupted in the year 79 A.D. Then they travel to the year 1666, when the Great London Fire burned most of the wooden buildings down, but ended the Plague. Next, in 1912, they learn about the sinking of the RMS Titanic.
