Our History: An Epic Journey of a Lifetime
A captivating journey through the history of our planet, spanning over 4.5 billion years. It begins with the formation of Earth from a cosmic cloud of matter, where the Sun ignited at its centre and planets, including Earth, took shape. Earth's early years were marked by violent collisions, one of which created our Moon.
As Earth cooled down, a primitive atmosphere and oceans formed, setting the stage for the emergence of life. The origin of life, around 3.5 billion years ago, remains a fascinating mystery, but the earliest microorganisms paved the way by producing oxygen through photosynthesis, changing the planet's chemistry.
Life evolved and diversified, with multicellular organisms emerging around 2.4 billion years ago. The colonization of land by plants and animals opened new opportunities for evolution. Around 540 million years ago, the Cambrian explosion gave rise to a multitude of diverse and complex species.
Humans evolved around 2 million years ago and have had a profound impact on Earth's ecosystems and civilizations. The text concludes by highlighting the present-day challenge: human activity affecting the planet's climate, emphasizing the responsibility we have in shaping Earth's future.
