THE BIRTH of the EARTH

4.6 billion years ago, the Earth was formed. Volcanoes' made rain: The ocean began. The Earth was like a giant steam bath. Over 300*. Meteorites showered the Earth, bringing essential minerals to Earth. Then one day a giant meteor hit the Earth making debris; the debris got caught in our galactic swirl and could not leave: This was the birth of the moon!

It shook the Earth to the core. The moon stood closer to the Earth allowing huge waves to go crazy. Everything was so turbulent that molecules began: Thus the double helix began. Land came out of the sea from plate tectonics. Baron landscapes that were full of sulfur. A toxic soup that would destroy animals & plants today.

The human DNA carries all the genetic chains to make life. The orgin of life had to begin with basic molecules. As they floated on the ocean they made their way to the beaches. Like tide pools. The light, shallow pools allowed heat. Chemicals began to form. The most impressive of all: DNA. The oceans have amino acids and the DNA replicated themselves. What these were still remains a mystery!

Hydrogen sulfite from the Earths core. Bacteria that feed on it was the first complex lifeforms. These were from the oceans deep.

Oxygen was a poisonous gas.

A half a billion years ago began to collide making huge towering peaks. Making the Himalayas. This produced wind, rain that make oxygen. However 2 billion years later the atmosphere began to cool. These environmental changes stimulated life.

There are siano bacteria (blue green algae). This can reproduce without sex cells, allowing it to reproduce. Allowing them to absorb photosynthesis. This was the beginning.

Oxygen produce waste. The cell nucleus was born! All animals including humans share the same cell structure. The mitochondria help the cell breathe. live bacteria live inside amoebas. The cell is the foundation of all life; our life depends on it. The mitochondria produces energy.

It took 21/2 million years for something to go beyond basic life. Life in the seas was very diverse. Creatures very strange looking. Now millions of animals live; because of the single cell. This is life; it happens regardless: We do not control it: it is us; we are it! This is the Earth! The complexity of it all is just mind boggling. I tried to make it short and sweet and simple too! Then their is our human bodies. Their are more cells in one human body that their are galaxies in the Milky Way! We are such complex animals which we think that we are simple but we are not. Our own bodies are as complex to understand as the Earth we come from. We are mini Universes!
