  1. 🦖☄️ Paleontologist Michael Benton and meteoriticist Monica Grady reconstruct the final day of the #Cretaceous in real-time – from the silent #asteroid visible as a #star, to the fireball and incineration, to mega-tsunamis, global #wildfires, acid #rain, and a decade-long #winter that snuffed out three-quarters of #Earth’s species.

  4. 🦖☄️ 66 million years ago, an #asteroid wiped out 75% of #Earth’s species. The survivors – small #birds, #mammals, #turtles, and #fish – shared key traits: a small body size, the ability to burrow or shelter in #water, and flexible diets. Researchers explain how size, diet, and luck determined who lived and who didn’t.

  6. An ancient city near the Dead Sea may have been destroyed by a massive explosion from the sky nearly 3,600 years ago. Some believe the catastrophe inspired the biblical story of Sodom.

  22. The not-so-close pass tonight of #asteroid #2026JH2 is, for some reasons, making the headlines. Despite its perfectly understandable size of 15 to 35 meter, it seems popular to compare it to the size of a blue whale. Not adding this whale-for-scale to the various artist impressions is a missed opportunity. Here you go ;)

  30. It's still rare for an #asteroid to be detected on impact trajectory. Bigger shooting stars at night are mostly missed opportunities. As a #spacegeek but not an astronomer, I'm not in their discussions. So I noticed it on a monitor on my wall. It mostly displays aircraft activity around PDX and the Pacific Northwest. But 2 panels are space related, my own software, using NOAA aurora & NASA asteroid data. #2026JN4 stood out as a blue line on the close asteroid passes. #astronomy #LowFlyingRocks
