Diverse microbial life existed on Earth at least 3.75 billion years ago, suggests a new study led by UCL researchers that challenges the conventional view of when life began.
For the study, published in Science Advances, the research team analyzed a fist-sized rock from Quebec, Canada, estimated to be between 3.75 and 4.28 billion years old. In an earlier Nature paper, the team found tiny filaments, knobs, and tubes in the rock which appeared to have been made by bacteria.
However, not all scientists agreed that these structures – dating about 300 million years earlier than what is more commonly accepted as the first sign of ancient life – were of biological origin.
Now, after extensive further analysis of the rock, the team has discovered a much larger and more complex structure – a stem with parallel branches on one side that is nearly a centimeter long – as well as hundreds of distorted spheres, or ellipsoids, alongside the tubes and filaments.
The researchers say that, while some of the structures could conceivably have been created through chance chemical reactions, the “tree-like” stem with parallel branches was most likely biological in origin, as no structure created via chemistry alone has been found like it.
These new findings, according to the researchers, suggest that a variety of microbial life may have existed on primordial Earth, potentially as little as 300 million years after the planet formed.
“This means life could have begun as little as 300 million years after Earth formed. In geological terms, this is quick – about one spin of the Sun around the galaxy.”
“These findings have implications for the possibility of extraterrestrial life. If life is relatively quick to emerge, given the right conditions, this increases the chance that life exists on other planets.”
Readers are well aware that humans evolved from Carp, and that Carp evolved from Vultures, and that Vultures eventually evolved into Kangaroos in Japan before swimming to the Outback. This isn't even up for debate at this point. It's just common sense.
But the big question is where did Carp come from? Well, a new scientific theory (by yours truly) has concluded that Carp actually evolved from lava rocks that were given life when the Hekla volcano in Iceland erupted roughly 3000 years ago. This eruption had so much heat that it literally brought lava rocks to life, and they eventually became the bottom feeding cousins of humanity: the Carp.
The Carp became erect when they were washed ashore during a Tsunami. It was during the time of the great flood, and their fins became legs in a period of weeks, thanks mostly to photosynthesis and osmosis. And their desire to not be stuck in the mood. It was our first known example of will to power.
Contrary to popular belief, God didn't really play any roll in creation. People are just obsessed with misinformation on the internet, and they will literally believe anything.
Let's be honest, if you think that there is some kind of grand design to all of the perfection in nature, then you're probably a Trump supporter clinging to your Bible. Because we know the origin of life came from rocks. And that everything was just a big coincidence that ultimately resulted in the cognizance of the human consciousness.
Science is going to have an answer for pre-big bang at some point. Science will also be able to clone the human consciousness and metaphysically transplant it back into the bodies of fish. It'll be a form of reverse evolution, in which science turns back the clock and goes back to the beginning, when we were all rocks.
Eventually, science will take us back to pre-big bang so we can study the state of nothingness. Hopefully Stephen Hawking's brain will be there, encapsulated in a moon rock, so he can finally know the answer to man's ultimate question: to know the mind of God.
