  1. ☄️ NEW: About 66 mil. years ago a #space #rock struck near #Mexico’s #Yucatán Peninsula, leaving a thin global clay layer as its only trace.

    High-precision #nickel #isotope measurements identify the impactor as a #CO #chondrite, an unusually rare carbonaceous #meteorite. Its low #sulfur content suggests airborne fine debris, not sulfur, may have caused the #extinction.

  6. Heat-trapping #asteroid dust may have incinerated the #dinosaurs within hours
    Global radiation pulse may have ignited vegetation and killed exposed animals
    When the asteroid hit, it vaporized, creating the 200km-wide #Chicxulub crater underneath the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the vapor cooled in the atmosphere and condensed into droplets of molten rock that rained down with the force of a bullet, generating a lot of heat. The rest became fine dust.

  16. Study: #Dinosaurs were charbroiled after #Chicxulub impact
    According to a new paper published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, the impact would have produced an immense cloud of dust that superheated the upper atmosphere, charbroiling living organisms unable to take shelter and igniting widespread wildfires.
    “We’re in the realm where we might be essentially killing off everything within that first hour or two.”

  21. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: ☄️🔥 A recent study from #Purdue suggests fine dust from the #Chicxulub impact trapped heat in the upper #atmosphere, effectively charbroiling exposed organisms within hours.

    Post-impact dust would have delivered 17 times the lethal #radiation dose for #humans, igniting #grass and #lichen across the #planet.
