Around 2.5 billion years ago, the entire atmospheric composition changed forever, thanks to one incredible microorganism: cyanobacteria. Cyanobacteria evolved photosynthesis, the process of using sunlight, water, and $text{CO}_2$ to create energy, releasing pure oxygen ($text{O}_2$) as a waste product. Initially, this $text{O}_2$ was captured by iron in the oceans, forming vast deposits known as Banded
