Older than bones. Drones from land masses that don’t exist anymore. There is rock in the Appalachian mountains without coal seams, because many formed in places before the land biomass that made coal and oil existed. They contain layers of fossils from ancient whales back to small crustaceans. 480 million years ago trilobites were being heft out of the sea by the Appalachians. The Appalachians existed for 20 million years before bearing witness to a million year long meteor shower from the L-chondrite debris that gave the earth temporary rings. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tja@programming.dev 8 points 2 days ago This is th e best comment I've read on lemmy for a long time.
