Earth during the Siderian period

Earth during the Siderian period

A hyper-realistic depiction of Earth during the Siderian period, over 2.5 billion years ago: barren rocky landscapes, vast iron-rich deserts with reddish hues, shallow primordial oceans tinted green by dissolved iron, thick atmospheric haze with a reddish-orange tint due to low oxygen and high methane, no land plants or animals, only simple microbial mats visible at the water’s edge, a dim sun low in the sky, distant volcanic activity, emphasizing ancient geology and early Earth environment, in realistic detail.
