What intrigues me more than origin location is how rapidly science has progressed. Just 100,000 years ago Neanderthals were running around. While earth is 5 billion years old.
So modern humans have been around for only about 0.00002 fraction of earth’s age. Will humans survive the remaining life of earth of 99.998% of earth’s remaining life?

The origin of anatomically correct humans through mDNA dating has been pushed back to 300,000 BC. So the question arises, what were we modern humans doing for the 293,000 years before ‘modern history’ began?
