Time and History of Life of Earth and People

  • Human is Born/ Origin of Earth

  • Go to University/ Oldest rocks

    Oldest known rocks are found on Earth's surface 3,800 millions of years ago, at the same amount of time it'd take a person to turn 17.39 years old
  • You get married/ oldest fossils

    3,500 million years ago, the oldest fossils of prokaryotic cells appear, the same amount of time you would turn 23.91.
  • Kids go to highschool/ atmospheric oxygen inreases

    Around 2,700 millions of years ago, the concentration of atmospheric oxygen begins to increase at the same span of time it'd take you to send your kids to high school at the age of 41.3.
  • Send your kids to college/ oldest fossils of eukaryotes

    At the age of 45.65, that same span of time would be when the oldest fossils of eukaryotic cells appear.
  • Mid-life crisis/ oldest fossils

    When you have your mid life crisis at the age of 54.35, oldest fossils of eukaryotic cells appear 2,100 millions of years ago
  • Diamond wedding anniversary/ oldest eukaryotes

    Around 635 million years ago, oldest fossils of eukaryotic cells appear and develop, along with your 60 years of marriage anniversary when you're 86.19.
  • 88th birthday/ diverse algae

    On your 88th birthday, the time span was the same as diversification of algae and soft-bodied invertebrate animals appear around 542 millions of years ago
  • Move out/ land colonization

    You move out of your house when you turn 89.4, the same time there's a colonization of land by diverse fungi, plants, and animals about 488 millions of years ago.
  • Nursing home/ diversification of plants

    You move into your nursing home as you turn 90.3, as 444 millions of years ago there's a diversification of early vascular plants
  • Meet your neighbors/ diversification of bony fish

    After you settle into your nursing home, you meet your neighbors when you turn 90.9. 416 million years ago at this same time there's a diversification of bony fishes and the first tetrapods and insects appear.
  • Get a walker/ amphibians dominate

    As you age, you have trouble with everyday things like walking, so when you turn 92.19, you obtain a walker. at a similar time 359 millions of years ago, extensive forests of vascular plants form, first seed plants appear, reptiles originate, and amphibians dominate.
  • travel one last time/ radiation of reptiles

    When you turn 93.5, you decide to travel out of the state one last time. Similar timing 299 million years ago,there's a huge radiation of reptiles, most present-day groups of of insects originate, and there's an extinction of many marine and terrestrial organisms.
  • Personal nurse/ mammals originate

    251 million years ago, cone-bearing plants dominate the landscape, dinosaurs evolve and radiate, and mammals originate. When you're 94.5, you hire a persona nurse to help you with your everyday life.
  • Oxygenated/ dinosaurs diversify

    When you turn 95.6, you have trouble breathing so you receive an oxygen tank. Around 199.6 millions of years ago, gymnosperms would continue as the dominant plants and dinosaurs are abundant and diverse.
  • move out (again)/ flowers appear and dinosaurs go extinct

    As you turn 96.8, you plan to move out of your nursing home and start packing your things to give away. Around this time 145.5 millions of years ago, flowering plants appear and diversify, many groups of organisms (including most dinosaurs) become extinct
  • hospitalized/ radiation of mammals

    This is the time of your life when you need to be hospitalized, as you turn 98.5 years old. Around this time 65.5 millions of years ago, there's a major radiation of mammals, birds, and pollinating insects
  • medical help/ flowers dominate

    When you are 98.78, you begin to receive a lot more medical help than you have been getting. 55.8 millions of years ago, angiosperm (flowers) dominate more and there's a continued radiation of most present-day mammalian orders.
  • death/ primate groups

    Sadly as you turn 99.26, you die. Around this time 33.9 millions of years ago, many primate groups originate.
  • mourning/ earliest direct human ancestors

    Near the time of your death as you would have been 99.5, your family and friends mourn and probably go through the 5 stages of grief. Similarly 23 Millions of years ago, there's a continued radiation of mammals and angiosperms, and there's found the earliest direct human ancestors.
  • Will is read/ bipedal ancestors

    When you would have turned 99.8, your family is reading your will. 5.3 millions of years ago, there's an appearance of bipedal human ancestors.
  • planning of funeral/ ice age

    When you would have been 99.94 years old, your family is planning your funeral. Around the same time 2.6 millions of years ago, an ice age is occurring and there's an origin of genus Homo.
