Killer Asteroid
3The asteroid that extinguished the dinosaurs, striking Earth approximately 66 million years ago, was estimated to be about 10 kilometers in diameter. Hurtling through space at immense speed, it collided with our planet with devastating force, unleashing a cataclysmic event that altered the course of life on Earth. Upon impact, it generated intense heat, shockwaves, and a vast plume of debris that blanketed the atmosphere, leading to a global environmental catastrophe. This asteroid's impact is widely regarded as the primary cause of the mass extinction event that wiped out nearly three-quarters of all species on Earth, including the dinosaurs, and paved the way for the evolution of new forms of life.
