How did life conquer this hostile world? Take an evolutionary journey that one day lead to us. Over the millennia this harsh new world was invaded by a few pioneering forms easy evolved to a multitude of animal designs able to cope with the extreme life on land. Our family, the mammals, is just one of the results. Every living thing is linked by the branches in the tree of life, because all life started in the sea where temperature hardly changes and water protects against a pull of gravity and the burning sun. The sea was the first laboratory of life. And for more than three fourths of life history it was home to every living thing. This was mostly gentle area for soft body creatures like jellyfish. Jellyfish are 95% water and have no skeleton at all. Water suspends all life in the three dimensional world. For hundreds of millions of years plants could only exist in the sea. One group of sea creatures had just the right kit to get up and go – the arthropods – with their hard-jointed outer skeletons.
