Faint young Sun paradox | Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
“Theoretical models of the Sun's development suggest that 3.8 to 2.5 billion years ago, during the Archean period, the Sun was only about 70% as bright as it is today. Such a weak star would not have been able to sustain liquid water on the Earth's surface, and thus life should not have been able to develop. However, the geological record demonstrates that the Earth has remained at a fairly constant temperature throughout its history, and that the young Earth was somewhat warmer than it is today.” - Anthony Citrano
Imagine what a comma could do: faint, young sun! - Anthony Citrano
