Where Is The Asteroid That Killed The Dinosaurs And What If There Were 2 Killer Asteroids?
One unspecified day 66 million years ago, the impact of a large asteroid made our Earth-a planet so remarkably suitable for life-a dark and inhospitable place, hostile to most living things.
It became night and winter for very long years, and when the first rays of sunlight managed to filter through again, they illuminated vast uninhabited plains, forestless and ash-covered, and oceans essentially devoid of life.
In that desolation, fungi and algae shared their existence with a few other living things, such as small mammals and ferns.
Over millions of years, things improved, the climate returned to differentiation, and new species evolved, populating the Earth once again.
And it is probably because of that asteroid, and the devastation it brought to the Planet millions of years ago, that you are standing in front of a screen today reading what is basically our story.
But something doesn’t add up–how could such an event have left no trace, so much so that it was ascertained by the scientific community only a few years ago?
To understand this, let’s start with another famous example of an impact crater…
