A Speculative Genesis 100 trillion trillion BC- 3,000,000,001 BC: Our universe is born; our solar system (and Earth One) forms; Earth is destroyed and replaced with Earth Two (the Moon also appears); Earth Two battered by asteroids, comets, and biblical scale tidal waves; Mars may harbor life; the first intelligent species in the universe and our galaxy may arise now Sponsor this page

The Signposts Perspectives: 100 trillion trillion BC- 3,000,000,001 BC Table of Contents

Approximately 100 trillion trillion+ BC- 13,563,000,000+ BC: The predecessor of our universe may offer up a bizarre reality at this time to any who could explore it

Approximately 13,837,000,000+ BC- 13,563,000,000+ BC: A monstrous, slow motion collision between two walls in the fifth dimension takes place

The big bang

Approximately 13,837,000,000+ BC- 13,563,000,000+ BC: Something apparently initiates the Big Bang explosion, which will eventually develop into an entire Universe

Approximately 13,837,000,000 BC- 13,563,000,000 BC: The Big Bang explosion brings our Universe into being

Approximately 13,836,900,000 BC- 13,562,900,000 BC: The 'Primordial Era' of the Universe ends

Approximately 13,836,700,000 BC- 13,562,700,000 BC: The Universe is a fast expanding, fluid-like glob; inside the growing body a humming sound reflects its writhing internal circulation; Atoms form; The Universe becomes visible to any theoretical inhabitants (space becomes transparent; previously space was opaque)

Approximately 13,835,700,000 BC- 13,561,700,000 BC: 'Ghost' dwarf galaxies, perhaps made largely (90-99%) of dark matter, are now forming

Approximately 13,637,000,000 BC- 13,363,000,000 BC: The very first small clusters of stars may be forming

Our galaxy takes shape

Approximately 12,000,000,000 BC: Perhaps 125 billion galaxies have formed in our Universe by now; Some 300 billion black holes may exist at this time, and represent the majority of massive solid objects in the void (most other matter may be in dust and gas form now)

Approximately 12,000,000,000 BC - 11,000,000,000 BC: This is the peak of quasar activity in the universe; Black holes already populate the universe by now

Approximately 10,000,000,000 BC: The Milky Way galaxy collides with (and absorbs) an alien dwarf galaxy

Approximately 8,000,000,000 BC - 4,000,000,000 BC: The expansion of our Universe appears to speed up now for some reason

Approximately 5,000,000,000 BC: Most of the galactic clusters in the universe may be more or less complete in their formation by now

Approximately 5,000,000,000 BC: Our young Sun is an unruly and dangerous star at this time

Our solar system (including Mars and Earth version one) forms

Approximately 5,000,000,000 BC- 4,600,000,000+ BC: A massive proto-Jupiter may splinter to form Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus-- then throw Neptune and Uranus into orbits much further from the Sun

Approximately 4,600,000,000+ BC: The formation of Mars is more or less complete

Approximately 4,600,000,000 BC: The formation of Earth One/Waterworld is more or less complete

Earth version one (Waterworld) destroyed; Earth version two (plus the Moon) created

Approximately 4,500,000,000 BC: Earth One/Waterworld is completely destroyed by collision with another planet; Earth Two and the Moon are formed

Approximately 4,500,000,000 BC: Mars is affected by the collision between Earth One and Orpheus

Continents, oceans, and life may all be present on Earth two-- at least sporadically

Approximately 4,400,000,000 BC: Liquid water (perhaps oceans of it) , solidified rock continents, and surface temperatures of around 100 degrees C offer surprisingly hospitable conditions on Earth at this time-- at least inbetween catastrophic asteroid and comet impacts; Life is perhaps appearing and then being extinguished again repeatedly by the wild fluctuations in conditions

Boiling Earth

Approximately 4,000,000,000 BC: The oceans boil; Extremophiles may be living below the Earth's surface; Earth's Moon's internal geology turns dynamic

Target Earth

Approximately 4,500,000,000 BC- 3,850,000,000 BC: Earth Two suffers a near constant bombardment with asteroids during this period; Regular bouts of Biblical scale flooding and catastrophic tsunamis batter the planet

Approximately 4,300,000,000 BC- 3,500,000,000 BC: A possibly warm Mars may be dotted with lakes of liquid water

Approximately 3,900,000,000 BC: For perhaps 100 million years around this time, the Earth, Moon, and perhaps other planets as well suffer massive bombardment from space, perhaps due to the recent formation of Neptune and Uranus; Mars may be warmed to such an extent by gases from comet impacts added to its atmosphere that liquid water can exist on its surface

Approximately 3,800,000,000 BC: Drops of primordial seawater are perhaps being trapped in the geological strata of Greenland

Approximately 3,800,000,000 BC - 2,500,000,000 BC: 95% of the Earth's surface is covered by water, and the planet may be tilted 70 degrees off vertical

Surface life on Mars

Approximately 3,500,000,000 BC: The frequency of asteroid and comet impacts on Earth is slowly decreasing at this time; Life may exist on the surface of Mars now...

Approximately 3,000,000,000 + BC: The very first intelligent lifeforms in the Universe (and our galaxy) may be emerging now
