Synopsis
2.7 billion years ago, a significant evolutionary milestone occurred in Earth's primeval oceans when a specific species of bacteria developed a mutation enabling it to harness solar energy, producing oxygen as a by-product. This increase in oxygen levels transformed the environment, paving the way for the emergence of more complex organisms. Among these was Myllokunmingia, an early chordate whose development marked a crucial step in the evolution of life, as its heart began to beat, signaling the rise of advanced life forms.
