Diplodocus lived during the Late Jurassic period, around 154-152 million years ago.
Sponges are one of the earliest forms of multicellular life on Earth, with fossils dating back to over 600 million years ago during the Ediacaran period. This makes sponges one of the oldest living animal lineages on the planet.
Ancient pottery reveal magnetic field changes from long ago. By studying the alignment of magnetic minerals in the pottery, researchers can reconstruct past magnetic field intensity and direction, providing insights into the Earth's magnetic field history.
Scientists estimate that around 5-10 million people were living on Earth 9000 years ago, during the Neolithic period, based on archaeological evidence. This was a time when human populations were starting to transition from a nomadic lifestyle to settled agricultural communities.
The Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. Life appeared on Earth about 3.5 billion years ago. The Earth would have been about 1 billion years old at that time.
The idea that processes occurring now on Earth are much the same as those that occurred long ago is called uniformitarianism. This principle suggests that the same natural laws and processes that operate in the present have always operated in the past to shape the Earth's surface.
some early fossils suggest as long ago as 400-450 million years ago. There is of course some debate over the specifics, however nonetheless.... a long long time.
