".. In Gesteinsproben und Sedimenten aus Bohrkernen fanden die Forschenden Hinweise auf mikrobielle Aktivitäten. Demnach bildete sich in der Zeit nach dem verheerenden Einschlag wohl ein See im Krater, der günstige Bedingungen für Leben bot. .."

As the sun sets on a young earth four billion years ago, the tide comes in. 🌅 The world looks alien with black water thick with metals and the toxic orange atmosphere looks alien. Cyanobacteria are busily growing atop one-another and producing oxygen that will one day make way for other life.

I worked on this shoot over the course of a year while living in Australia.

@JohnMashey @johncarlosbaez in further defense of the honor of #NewJersey, here is one of my favorite hidden spots, an outcrop from the Cambrian filled with #stromatolite fossils

Watching #FrozenPlanet2 last night, saw the segment about #stromatolite life in #Antarctic lake. Amazing! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzEVeFBXfNg
