The protein atmosphere, also called the primordial protein atmosphere or albumen atmosphere, formed according to Rudolf Steiner during the earth's evolution through the formative influence of the music of the spheres, after the earth condensed to a liquid state after the sun's exit during the Lemurian period. This process was promoted by the compressing forces of the moon, which had not yet separated from the earth at that time.

„Now the time came when the sun peeled out of the earth again. The finest matter and entities formed an independent world body so that our earth orbited the sun. The emergence of the finest matter was connected with a condensation of the remaining matter. On the one hand the finely luminous body of the sun emerges, on the other hand the matter of the earth becomes much denser. It comes into a watery state, denser than our sea water, for it also contained everything that is solid today. With the becoming liquid a new element appears. To the extent that the water appears, the music of the spheres, the sounds of the world, works out of the cosmos and out of the earth. It is not such music as today, which is propagated through the air. The development of the earth is now under the influence of the world music. Matter emerges as individual substances from the undifferentiated, great matter. The earthly substances begin to dance under the influence of the world music. This is the differentiation of matter into organic matter, for example into protein. Thus organic matter, the protoplasm, came into being under the influence of the world music, similar to the Chladnian sound figures today. These substances, protein-like, glutinous matter, are pushed into the earlier lines of force of the human germ. The cells, which today are regarded as the first in the history of the development of organisms, came into being much later. They were only born from certain beings. The atom, too, is never the original, is always that which falls out of the whole. The whole is never composed of the cells. The whole process was promoted by the fact that the moon was still in the earthly body. The three human races that went through these times are the Polar, the Hyperborean and the Lemurian. Then the moon separated from the earth.“ (Lit.:GA 98, p. 215)
