Buy ETF now for the first time?

Is now a decent time to buy my first ETF (SCHD)?

I know the market is in chaos. Im 26, and not in the market currently. I know it is very low compared to a month ago. But if I have some spare money, and am willing to put some money in for the next 40 years to not be touched, would now be a good time?

Even if the market continues to go down, every 10 year period since its existence there has been growth from what I am aware. And now that it is cheaper, should I wait or go in?

Thank you for your time and input.
