The Cosmic Summit | Life on Earth 4.2 Billion Years Ago: New Evidence from Ancient Rocks @cosmicsummit | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Recently we've obtained data that goes back to 4.2 billion years and the oldest rocks that formed at that time have unequivocal and ambiguous signs of microbial life. These now exist as rock formations that are exposed in places like southern Australia nowadays. This gives speculation for life being on Earth around this time period. What are your thoughts?
