I was thinking about how old we must be in comparison to other bastions of life in the universe.
The first stars formed, died, and released heavier elements necessary for life into the universe. Once the next series of star births came around, life became a possibility (certanty with the size of the universe). So my question is. How Early could life have started? I mean when did the first main sequence stars all die off and allow for the next main sequence stars to have the possibility for life (I only what information pertaining to main sequence stars because they make up most star matter and are therefore the most pertinent)? Is Earth probably one of the first sets of worlds with life or have other planets filled with life probably come and gone with their stars?
