Frans Lanting explored the relation between nature and science, from Earth’s earliest beginnings to its present day. Work alone or with a group on this guide and show us what you learn about LIFE as you explore the Space.

Stromatolites at dawn, Shark Bay, Western
DID YOU KNOW? Stromatolites are formed in shallow water and provide ancient records of LIFE on earth by fossil remains that can date from more than 3.5 billion years ago. Stromatolites occur widely in the fossil record of the PRECAMBRIAN ERA, but are rare today.
Find the Cambrian Explosion on the timeline that runs along the exhibit walls. What other kinds of life existed before the Cambrian Explosion (Precambrian Era)?

In this exhibit, Frans Lanting took photos of nature that could reflect time and its origins. There are many ways you can tell how much time has elapsed by observing nature.
You can count the rings on an exposed tree stump. The number
of rings indicates the number of years the
tree lived. Thinner rings represent colder years
whereas thicker rings represent warmer years.
