Honestly I think a human probably could live in the carboniferous. If the inuit can survive on a diet of mostly arctic marine mammals, with little to no plant matter, I think the right balance of terrestrial arthropods, shellfish, fish, primitive amphibians, and the few edible plants would also suffice.
@BigShrimpin_ 8 місяців тому
Especially since while the coniferous pine cones and similar aren't edible, the fruits within them are, that's what pine nuts are. To comfortably survive, the late cretaceous is probably best, but to just survive, you could probably scrape by in the carboniferous.
@aazhie 6 місяців тому
@@BigShrimpin_ If there's very little or no competition for the pine nuts, it would definitely be easier! Humans also can live off modern insects and seaweeds. If the ancient species aren't toxic, they'd make for a far more varied diet than just fish alone!
@studiesinflux1304 6 місяців тому
I also think the human would be able to live comfortably in the Carboniferous if they had a bunch of basic power tools. - Get protein from the sea life - Use a solar powered mill to crush indigestible stuff to extract some vitamins (as tea or juice) - Tap trees for sugars (although there may be a few steps between sap and sugar) -- Of course if you extend that with enough stuff from the present day or advanced enough tools, you’d defeat the purpose of the experiment because you’d just have a domed greenhouse and factory similar to what we think a Mars base would be.

But you could eat the pine nuts and cedar nuts, assuming the ancient species are non-toxic, like the modern ones. The pine needles will provide at least vitamin C. Other vitamins could be had, most likely, from fish. You'd be just fine as far as stuff to eat, in the carboniferous, most likely. The real problem would be avoiding being eaten.

Technically speaking, the farthest back you can go and still survive is a pretty debatable subject because, if you go back far enough, your immune system will be aeons ahead of its time; and, thus, you likely won't have resistances against many of the current viral, bacterial, and other microbial threats of whatever period you go back to, with a good chunk being extinct in your time, and the rest being very, very different from their modern counterparts.

No doubt doing this is a VERY bad idea from the standpoint of introducing microorganisms to time periods WAY before they should be on the scene. But, this is an interesting thought experiment from the standpoint of basic human needs.

@alexv3357 10 місяців тому
@@TheCriticom That's not how immunity - or evolution in general - works. Natural selection doesn't follow a linear or cumulative progression towards some distant ideal, and whether a pathogen is capable of attacking another organism's cells is fairly scattershot. Modern organisms are no more or less "advanced" than those of the past, just different. They're not like outmoded technologies or legacy software. If a modern human went hundreds of millions of years back to the past and interacted with enough organisms, they would likely find themselves on the receiving end of just as many infections as they themselves spread.
@Oberon4278 10 місяців тому
Your immune system already knows how to fight every infection. Even those that never existed. Okay not HIV, or certain other rare exceptions. But those require a modern human immune system to co-evolve with, so pre-human infections wouldn't have access to their tricks. You'd be fine.

If time travel to the past were feasible, wouldn't it be safer to be in orbit with the ability to land back on earth, thus avoiding any surface irregularities? It would be a shame to go back 4.5 billion years only to find yourself floating briefly in a lake of lava.

I mean, if we're being realistic, time travel would cause *you* to go back in time, not the world around you. It would also cause you to explode almost instantly, as human biology doesn't work in reverse. And if you really want to try to cause the entire universe (or at least the entire planet) to reverse in time, you would similarly cause it to explode, thanks to the reverse butterfly effect. Not actually something that would be practical.

This was the kind of thoughtful exploration of prehistory I was hoping to find in the tv series Terra Nova. In the near future, humans have overpopulated and polluted the Earth to the point the air is unhealthy to breathe. The only escape is time travel for a chosen few to this precise period of time, when the Earth has just become habitable to humans--but the dinosaurs got there first. Instead of thoughtful exploration there was family drama and conspiracy theories. My review: "Too many whiny teens, too few whiny-teen-eating dinosaurs." So I was happy to see a scientific look at this concept. The series had a great premise that left me wanting a real analysis of the question. Seeing as humans have destroyed the wonderful climate of the Holocene, the question of what conditions humans can survive is relevant for the future.

I'd honestly say a group of people would make things harder; more mouths to feed. Considering that the Maori managed to survive and thrive in New Zealand, which in the very early days of colonization (before all the forests got trashed, the wildlife pushed to endangerment or extinction, and many modern plants brought in) closely resembled the Late Cretaceous, that time period would be a safe bet. Even then they managed to hunt the Moa to extinction and ended up with lots of tribal conflict afterwards. And they did bring sweet potato, which did kinda end up like bringing a more modern plant into a very ancient landscape. I imagine any earlier than that and you would start to run into issues with gathering enough edible plants to sustain a large group of people, so my bet would be similar to the video's conclusion. A very skilled survivalist or small group could probably scrape by in the Carboniferous.

Considering how closely New Zealand resembled the Late Cretaceous upon its first discovery by humans, its almost certainly possible to thrive. Similar composition of many ancient gymnosperm groups (with a few species virtually unchanged since that time too) and a good sprinkling of some fairly ancient angiosperm groups as well. Not to mention a lack of mammals with large birds filling in most of the niches. The Maori did end up hunting all the Moa to death and broke out into lots of tribal conflicts afterwards so it certainly wasn't great with a large number of people. They also may have waited a couple centuries between discovering the land and sending out a colonization force, and when they did colonize it they brought a few much more recently evolved essentials with them such as dogs and sweet potato. So clearly, not the _most_ appealing land for human habitation without some intervention. Even so, they managed to make it work and thrive, with quite a few people too. Humans are adaptable.

Minor nitpick: the pH of pure water is 7; H represents free protons and p indicates that the value is the negative logarithm of concentration. Carbon dioxide dissolving into water would increase the number of free protons, but that would lead to a *decrease* in the pH. Otherwise, the wording in your script is downright beautiful in places.

The handful of animals that were left behind only did so because their biological adaptations allowed them to cling on to existence alongside humans. Not because they were being “sustainably hunted”.

Others have pointed out that the travelers would bring modern organisms with them. One really huge advance in evolution was antioxidants. The early photosynthesizers produced oxygen, but the same oxygen killed them. It was only with antioxidants in organisms that oxygen and life could really take off. If these genes were released into earlier ages, it could bring about complex life much earlier. I wonder if phytoplankton or algae released into the Archean eon could survive.

Pretty sure you could get by in the Paleozoic. You don’t *need* fruit. Ferns (the plant) are edible (don’t eat me). Pine needle tea is also very high in vitamin C.

Vitamin C is the big fruit issue, and there are some sources outside fruit. In modern times, tubers and other plant parts have some, so ferns might work. A few animal parts have some as well, if these existed in the paleozoic thy could work. Fill in any extras with whatever meat you can catch, algae, moss, fungi, etc. for a balanced diet.

You also forgot CO2 concentrations, which can be quite dangerous. If it weren't for that, you could probably scrape by at the end of the Middle Devonian, around 385 MYA. The earliest predecessors for seed plants were around then, along with plenty of megaspore producing plants, some trees, and even early tetrapods. It wouldn't be a pleasant survival but you'd get by. Taking CO2 issues into account, you would have to move it up to the mid Carboniferous, though the extra high Oxygen might not be great for you in the long term and if it was during a glacial maxima (the Late Paleozoic Icehouse was ongoing then) you might wanna stick to the tropics, and post Carboniferous Rainforest Collapse you'd have to stick to the few patches of rainforest left and manage resources carefully. Still though, food and shelter would be accounted for. Late Mesozoic is probably necessary for someone unskilled and for properly thriving though.
