Abstract

The origins of the Earth and moon and the evidence for the first ocean are discussed. We explore answers to the following questions: Were there any continents 4 billion years ago? What would the view from a beach look like 4 billion years ago? How large were the first tides? Was the first ocean salty? What color was the first sky? When did life first arise in the ocean? During its early history, the Earth became a snowball; was the entire ocean ever frozen solid? What is the “albedo effect”?

It could not have been any closer to Earth than three times the Earth’s radius, which is known as the Roche limit, the minimum distance from the center of the planet that a satellite can orbit without being destroyed by the severity of the tidal forces.
