  1. hadean eon

    The Hadean ( hay-DEE-ən, HAY-dee-ən) is a geologic eon of Earth history preceding the Archean. On Earth, the Hadean began with the planet's formation about 4.54 billion years ago (although the start of the Hadean is defined as the age of the oldest solid material in the Solar System, found in some meteorites, about 4.567 billion years old). The Hadean ended, as defined by the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS), 4 billion years ago.Hadean rocks are very rare, largely consisting of zircons from one locality in Western Australia. Hadean geophysical models remain controversial among geologists: it appears that plate tectonics and the growth of continents may have started in the Hadean. Earth in the early Hadean had a very thick carbon dioxide atmosphere, but eventually oceans of liquid water formed.

  1. hadean eon

    The Hadean Eon refers to the earliest period of Earth's history, approximately 4.6 to 4 billion years ago. This time period begins with the formation of the planet and ends with the first signs of life. The eon is characterized by a hot, molten surface and heavy meteorite bombardment, and it's believed that both the Earth's moon and its atmosphere originated during this time. It's named after Hades, the ancient Greek god of the underworld, reflecting the hostile conditions on Earth during this period.
