starting in the 1980s many scientists argued that life got its start in scalding, mineral-rich waters streaming out of the deep sea hydrothermal vents evidence for hot start included studies on the tree of life which suggests that most primitive species of microorbs alive today thrive on hot water

earth was formed around 4.54 gya approximately 1/3 of the age of the universe, by accretion form the solar nebula, volcanic outgassing probably created the primordial atmosphere and then the ocean, but the early atmosphere contained no oxygen
