Wow, sharks @439mya, Polaris @70mya. They're more than 6 times older! This is NUTS!
What's even crazier is sharks are even older than trees!
Interestingly, Sharks became a thing around the same time that massive fungi structures that looked like trees existed.
So there could be planets where mushroom forests are dominant like one might see in the science fiction televisual dramas.
worship the 🍄, for Toad has spoken.
