What is the earliest period in Earth's history?
The earliest period in Earth's history is the Hadean Eon, which lasted from about 4.6 billion to 4 billion years ago. This eon is characterized by the formation of Earth, intense meteorite bombardment, and the initial stages of planetary differentiation.
Why pieces of earth's earliest crust do not exist today?
Earth's earliest crust, which formed over 4 billion years ago, has been recycled through processes like subduction, where it is pulled back into the mantle. This constant recycling of Earth's crust, along with the effects of erosion and weathering, means that no original pieces of the earliest crust remain intact today.
What was the super continent that was on earth 2000 million years ago?
Perhaps you mean 200 million years ago? This supercontinent was Pangea.
What percent of time since earth was formed have humans lived on earth?
When calculated according to the 4.6 billion years since earth was formed humans have live in it 0.09 percent of the time.
Where did precious metals come from?
ScienceDaily (Sep. 7, 2011) - Ultra high precision analyses of some of the oldest rock samples on Earth by researchers at the University of Bristol provides clear evidence that the planet's accessible reserves of precious metals are the result of a bombardment of meteorites more than 200 million years after Earth was formed.
Why did the earliest rock samples date from 800 Million Years After Earth formed?
earth cooled suffciently
When did the earliest organisims appear on Earth?
Nobody really knows when the earliest organisms were on Earth. It was definitely more than a million years ago.
Why moon is called natural satellites?
Because it was not man-made. The moon was formed a few million years after the earth and almsot 4 billion years before our earliest ancestors.

What era was earth first formed Cenozoic Mesozoic Paleozoic or Precambrian PLEASE HELP?
The earth first formed at the beginning of the Precambrian supereon which spans a very large period of time from 4,567 million years ago, through to 542 million years ago.The beginning of the Precambrian where Earth formed is known as the Hadean eon, stretching from 4.7 Ga (billion years ago) and ended roughly 3.8 billion years ago.
What is the earliest period in Earth's history?
The earliest period in Earth's history is the Hadean Eon, which lasted from about 4.6 billion to 4 billion years ago. This eon is characterized by the formation of Earth, intense meteorite bombardment, and the initial stages of planetary differentiation.
What happen 800 million years after Earth formed to allowed rocks to form?
Earth cooled sufficiently

This constant recycling of Earth's crust, along with the effects of erosion and weathering, means that no original pieces of the earliest crust remain intact today.
What is the earliest span of time in earth history?
The answer is debated amongst geologists, astrologists and palaeontologists - the earliest period in life's history is the Archean eon, when the first proto-cells were thought to have formed. The earliest period there, is the Eoarchean - 4200 - 4400 million years ago. However, the earliest eon is the Hadean, which encompasses the formation of the Earth as celestial body 4600 million years ago, up to 4200 million years ago. The earth was formed by accretion (gravitational attraction of smaller bodies, to form a central object of greater mass, thus attracting more smaller bodies, and so on), within 10 - 20 million years, so, other than describing this period of Earth's history as 'Proto-Earth', there isn't really a way of classifying even earlier stages, unless you are willing to look into the stages of accretion in forming planets. (The earliest stage would probably be a 'proto-planetary disk' stage, which was itself formed as a by-product of the formation of the sun, followed by a kilometre-wide planetisimal, and then a Mars sized 'embryo', growing progressively. In this sense, the Earth and the Sun are descended from the same Giant Molecular Cloud, or GMC.)
When was the Yangtze river made?
It was formed by by the movement of earth's crust about 40 million years ago.

How many years ago was the Chicxulub crater formed?
The Chicxulub crater was formed around 66 million years ago when a massive asteroid struck the Earth, leading to the extinction of the dinosaurs and significant changes in the Earth's ecosystem.
