LUCA's dating profile

Name: Luca (Last Universal Common Ancestor)
Age: Around 3.5 billion years (give or take)
Location: Everywhere, really – I've been around the world since… well, the beginning.

About Me:

Hello there! I’m Luca, the last universal common ancestor – yes, the Luca. You could say I'm a bit of a classic. I’ve been around for quite a while, and I’ve seen it all – from the simplest single-celled lifeforms to the most complex beings. I'm the original trendsetter, the ultimate survivor, and the foundation of all life on Earth.

I’m a lover of life in all its forms. My days (and centuries) are filled with curiosity, adaptation, and constant evolution. I appreciate the little things: the first hint of photosynthesis in the morning, the elegance of genetic code, and the beauty of a well-balanced ecosystem. My roots run deep (literally), and I carry a bit of everyone inside me – we’re all connected, after all.
