Been a while since I last posed anything but hey check it out I made this a few days ago!
I said this was my sketch account so you guys get to see the thumbnail idea sketches for this art work! I also made a speedpaint of this artwork!
All of these are centered around the idea of the green comet that is passing by for the first time in 50,000 years! It all gave me the idea to do a kind of somber artwork where Marcy is thinking of her past.

On February 1 and 2, Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) will reach its closest point to Earth (0.29 AU/ 27 million mi/ 44 million km). The comet might be visible to the eye alone. You'll need a dark-sky site. And you can always use binoculars or a telescope to spot this green visitor from the outer solar system. Read about the green comet.

Welcome back, C/2022 E3 (ZTF)! Here's what you missed:
The "green comet" was discovered on March 2nd, 2022, by the Zwicky Transient Factory, and February 1st, 2023, will be its closest time to the Earth and visible to the naked eye!
The last time C/2022 E3 (ZTF) passed this close to Earth was 50,000 years ago. What was that Earth like?
Looking at 48,000 BCE, the Earth had humans! In fact, it had more kinds of humans than it does now. Homo neanderthalensis, our cousins the Neanderthals, were present mainly in continental Europe, and Homo floresiensis, sometimes called Hobbits, lived on the island of Flores, Indonesia. And the Denoisovans, Homo denisova, were covering Asia.
Homo sapiens were at the beginning of our Holocene period, part of the Upper Paleolithic (Old Stone) Age. We had spread from East Africa into the rest of the continent and Asia, along the southern coast, and were just starting to get into Oceania and Europe from Asia.
These people had temporary settlements in the form of campsites but no permanent ones. Art in the form of music, carvings, and paintings was abundant. We were hunters, gatherers, and even sometimes fishers, and our stone tools were starting to get more specialized. We had bow and arrow technology, as well as spears. Both our tools and our art were starting to grow distinct from those of Neanderthals. We had control of fire for a very long time at this point and cooked our food, which differed from region to region.
The Emiran culture in the Fertile Crescent (Lebanon, Palestine, Israel, Syria, Jordan, Arabia), the oldest known Upper Paleolithic culture, exists. Very little is known about them except for their distinct stone-knapping style.
We'll never know if any of the early humans of any species, or this earliest culture, watched the stars. And if they did, we could never know if they watched close enough to see C/2022 E3 (ZTF) pass by--without binoculars or a telescope, it's just a small smudge. But the sky was darker back them. So I think they probably did see it, just like us.

Tips of how to find comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) can be found here
I should note here that the numbers I used have low precision. The comet did not pass by precisely 50,000 years ago rather than 50,010 or 49,090 years ago. Likewise, our methods of dating human presence and activity are limited in precision and are reliant on bones or material culture being preserved, which doesn't always happen. I picked things that we're pretty confident happened around the time period, which is the best anyone could do.
