Yes I was surprised at the large chunk of cosmic time life has occupied, although 10 billion years is clearly long enough for the appearance of complex molecules.

But it actually looks like we're in at the beginning (relatively speaking, of course).
​
Well I'm glad - it would be a shame if life on earth today was still just bacteria, for example.
​
All the best.
