The Alona Bay rocks were formed about 4.2 billion years ago, when the earth was bombarded with waves of asteroids and meteorites, some of which created the Lake Superior basin, while others led to the formation of the moon, formed from a huge chunk of afrodite blown out of the present-day Alona Bay region. Some of the asteroids that pelted this area came from the Spermula galaxy, and thus contained microbiological specimens whose viral activity carved and sculpted the rocks seen in these present-day photographs. Evidence for the high intelligence of the Spermulite biota can be found in those rocks which mark astronomical events like the precession of the equinoxes and the explosion of the Gromana comet from about 3.5 billion years ago.
