Nearly 3.4 billion years ago, there were microscopic bacteria, which are considered to be the earliest form of living organisms on earth. Because the earth's atmosphere did not have any oxygen at that time, these organisms survived by feeding on sulfur.

What is 15000 MYA equal to?

15000 MYA means 15000 Million Years Ago, or 15 billion years ago, longer than the approximate age of the universe (13.8 billion years). MYA can also be represented by the SI value "Ma" meaning mega-annum, so that 15000 Ma = 15 Ga (giga-annum).
