Origins of life on Earth section - interesting new paper in Nature

[edit]

Discovery of stromatolite formation in post-impact hydrothermal lacustrine environments and its implications for early Earth

  • "Understanding asteroid-collision-generated extreme environments, including hydrothermal activity, is crucial for gaining insights into biological evolution on the early Earth. Here, we demonstrate that stromatolites—the oldest fossil evidence of oxygen-producing microbial life on early Earth—could have developed within impact craters, based on a detailed investigation of stromatolites and lake sediments in the Hapcheon impact crater, Korea."

My impression is that this warrants a new "Impact craters" subsection under Origins of Life->Prebiotic environments. DiodotusNicator (talk) 00:44, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
