Virgilian Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 That's the best synopsis of the much-controversial finds I've yet read. Provides several of the rebuttal arguments in cogent context. Fascinating to consider that If the purported structures are indeed of biological origin, and they're at the older geologic age extreme postulated--4.28 billion years old--that means life was flourishing on Earth only 120 million years after the oceans began to form.

Well, if life was deposited by comets on Earth, I wouldn't be surprised. If that is true, life probably began earlier than the fossils in question. Keep looking! They're everywhere!
