Why dont any of these videos ever show the true geography of the Earth during the ages of dinosaurs and meteor impacts. Continental drift is very important when imagining these events and allows people to understand better the destructive implications when when these events happen. If these meteors did impact approximately at the same time they were very close together instead of having the Atlantic ocean between impact areas. 66 million years ago S. America and Africa were very very close to each other

Groundbreaking is a very good choice of word.

It also could have hit the Earth 1,000 years, or 50,000 years after the larger impact.

India was in the middle of the indian ocean at the time and plotting it out, india impactor, Nadir, Columbia, and Chixulub, you could trace a line from just south of the equator, across the globe in a line to Chixulub, from southeast to northwest.

Nice to hear other theories about extinction event

3 interesting facts about birds and at least some dinosaurs. 1. Birds and dinosaurs had lighter stronger bones enabling easier flight in birds and giant sizes in dinosaurs like the saurapods. 2. Birds and dinosaurs had more efficient lungs enabling easier flight in birds and huge size in some dinosaurs. 3. Birds and perhaps at least some dinosaurs have smaller more efficient nureons enabling toddler level intelligence and self awareness in some birds and perhaps at least some dinosaurs had intelligence. What may have been the difference and why mammals eventually inherited the Earth is that dinosaurs and birds lay eggs which small hungry mouse like mammals post impact apocalypse may have fed on preventing an eventual repopulation. Mammals having live births was probably more successful in producing offspring that survived. Even nowadays in some islands the appearance of rats from arriving boats decimate ground roosting bird populations through egg eating.

I always had the theory that a cooling climate post impact did the most to kill off the dinosaurs. The Earth at the end of the Cretaceous was very warm, with virtually no ice and subtropical forests stretching up to the northern US. The old view was that the dust from the asteroid blocked out the sun, which killed plants, but I don't think that would do as much damage as we think. I think the dust high up in the atmosphere blocked out radiation from the sun, which caused a global cooling the likes of which we haven't seen since, at least not until the Last Glacial Maximum. The cooling climate not only killed off the tropical plants which dominated the Cretaceous ecosphere, but caused mega-droughts which further killed off most plants. The large herbivores died out, while the smaller avian dinosaurs and mammals survived because they required less food. The ensuing cold climate would have reduced the range of egg laying dinosaurs, which needed more heat to insulate eggs.

Because Earth surface is constantly remade, the proofs we have are mostly on the Moon, and there are plenty, telling us the Chixulub impact is among the tiniest we can still see on Earth, there were multi-impacts way larger than that, hopefully, most of them happenned before the start of life on the planet. For your question, with Chicxulub... we don't know yet, this second crater is a possibility that needs confirmation. Because we wasn't there with our telescopes, we will never know how many bodies if this is a multi-impact. We could only know about the bodies larger than 30m if we find the said craters (still there or got melted under the crust ?). How could we count the rock that missed Earth despite being hypothetically with the same group as Chicxulub ? How could we count the dust that came with the larger bodies, vaporized in the atmosphere upon entry ? How could we count the rocs that impacted Earth elswhere, but not massive enough to make a crater that would last 65 millions years ? How could we count the 1km wide meteors that landed in the same location as Chicxulub, but melted along the others due to the big one ? We weren't there :( Several ? maybe. If so, how many ? Yes !

It should be noted that study of the 12,000 year ago event would be more significantly more accurate in data points.

If an object with more mass struck the Earth it may well have punched straight through the crust leaving an open wound oozing lava for a long time and eventually largely self healing the crater and obscuring the evidence of the impact. Perhaps this explains the Siberian and Indian traps.

This guy is correct. I've done multiple demonstrations and models proving that a single 10km asteroid hitting the ocean could not do this. It would take a second asteroid roughly 23km in diameter to make the crater we see today. Mind you most scientists would never admit to being wrong. Do the math yourself. A 10km asteroid traveling roughly 17k Kmph at such high heat would have been partially vaporized upon impact of the water. Not to mention having to go 100km into that water before impact to earth. So my models and demonstrations show that with roughly 12 to 24 hrs of the first impact came a second impact of roughly 1.6 greater size than the first. If you take into account where the crater center and size with included continental drift the calculation comes withing 50km of the known center of the crater. With a second impact happening while the sunami is spreading outward this also accounts for such a large ashcloud and the tectonic shift. Less or equal to the distance of total depth of water vs the asteroid. Which in turns activates violent volcanic activity around the globe. This accounts for much of the ashcloud and depth that's been found around the globe. This blocked out most of the sunlight for nearly 2.5 million years and caused the great extention. Did it destroy the planet. No. We're here. Life found a way. Could it happen again. Absolutely. Look at how many asteroids have hit the earth since man has been mapping the stars. We just like to think that we're that good. Truth bomb. We're not. We're still at the mercy of the nature and the stars. So. Stay true to your faith and your family. And remember. Keep an eye on the sky like Dr sky. You just never know.

That's not how it works : atmosphere is not thick enough to change the direction of any falling body of that magnitude from the sky, and no, not because they were spinning in opposite directions relative to Earth surface, one towards the east and the other the west, that has any meaningfull effect in the resulting distance between the craters. If a duo of meteor or comet hit Earth at the same time, and the craters are 3000km apart, one logic reason is both bodies were already appart by at least 3000km before entering the atmosphere, like orbiting one another at a distance of 4500km. To have a two body objects reach incredible speed relative to the other and have the velocity to go different ways entering the atmosphere, you either need them to be very close, like a 10km orbit radius (which is not the scenario of your point : you will theorically see both bodies going in different directions, but the crater impact distance won't exceed the max orbit radius, ie a few kilometers) or having one body being utterly massive, like Earth's Moon. A little more complex : Earth orbits the Sun at 30km per second. So, for a dual body coming in one after another, it takes 100 seconds for Earth to wander enough to get hit elsewhere, roughly 3000km away from the first impact. That means, for two meteor speeding at 30000km per hour to take one minute 40 sec between both impacts, they should be appart by 833.33km. This, to demonstrate despite having all body hitting Earth at the same angle and on the same path (orbit), it takes a few hundred kilometers between the meteors on a collision course to create craters thousand miles apart. This is not your two body system, but we will get there. Even more complex, when a multiple body system approaches a large body, the large body disrupts the system and disorganise the orbits inside that system. Practically, each body of the smaller system progressively abandon the inital local orbits to enter one unique orbit around the massive body they are approaching. This results in *each body aligning one after another* (with some discrepancies). This ultimately negates the assumption of spinning duo before entering the atmosphere, it won't happen. Now, imagine the system contained some orbits appart by 4500km. Nearing Earth, you have aligned rocks ~3500-4500 km apart. And 4000km is an impact interval of 480 seconds, 8 minutes during which the Earth could move (dodge) by 14400km, more than twice its radius. Chances are the second rock missed Earth (and will likely come back some astronomical time after, small or huge, like next decade, or 300 millions years later). One can point out Earth is not a flat plan or a cube, meaning 3000km linear on an azimuthal projection is somewhere between 3500 and 6000km actual Earth distances, roughly but you get the point : it takes even less than 833.33km of consecutive body hits to have craters more than 3000km apart, and depending on timing, the second meteor could land on the opposite hemisphere (19000km away), precess the first impact after nearly orbiting the entire planet before hitting (fly over some 32000km and land closer, like 8000km the opposite direction), or even miss entirely. The whole point is, orbit and atmosphere has no meaningful influence on where the craters are (or aren't). What is relevant is the configuration and distance between the bodies, and the trajectory of the system (and not each body) relative to Earth. The penetration vector (angle) during the couple seconds they enter the atmosphere will be the same if they hit at the same time, maybe a difference of half a degree, but, roughly, they will be the same. If they hit at different times, like several minutes apart, yes, the angle will be different, not because of their initial orbits, but because Earth had time to move, bent the system trajectory, and present a different surface orientation relative to the penetration vector, making the visual angle of entry very different, at that location from the point of view of someone on ground zero.

Outstanding video as always! :)

On the Sweden case, the third piece went to Finland. Lappajärvi crater. It’s likely the biggest of the three actually as its largest in Europe.

I personally have my own little theory about that extinction event. I suspect a shoemaker-levy like scenario did occur and the Chicxulub impact was just the largest of the impacts. That Nadir crater is likely another one and I personally suspect there would have been 1-2 impacts on the Cocos plate and a couple on the Pacific plate as well. The one(s) on the Cocos plate might have already subducted under Mexico by now, but there is a possibility of seeing if there is any such craters on the Pacific plate still. Having said that, there is an interesting mostly circular structure with a large raised rim and a raised central area just off the Mexican coast at (20.260852, -106.001625) that peaks my interest. (though that could easily be volcanic in nature, given the plate boundaries nearby...) So, if my hypothesis is right, there ought to be a crater to find somewhere between Chicxulub crater and Hawaii (large area to consider, I know...) There is an interesting structure in that region of the pacific plate that has a near perfect circular structure that feels out of place and could be an interesting place for someone to do a subsurface scan on. The circle center is roughly located at (24.564862, -127.114101) for those that are curious. (I'm no expert geologist though, so I could be wildly off about this hypothesis...)

We don't know when it comes to the planet (or planetoid) body, we can't see a non glowing body in the dark of the sky. However, about your star, or a small wandering black hole that should emit at least a tiny whole bunch of radiations, there is none going away from us or kind of orbiting us. We are aware of a star that made a fly by, near the solar system (by near, it means very far away you could spot it with naked eye as a star dimmer than normal stars we have today), but it was billions years ago. So, noone can entirely disprove the large cold dead body whatever it is lurking out there outside the Oort cloud. But our model of known comets orbiting Sun closer than they should tells us there is no body larger than Mars out there, if any, because a body larger than that would have caused much much much much more comets and rocks bombarding our inner Solar system. The point is, ONE large body fly by from an outer system, billion of years ago, disrupting the system, and it took one of that rock billion of years to finally impact Earth after countless attempts, some 65-66 millions years ago... maybe. But you don't need an outer system planet to get there, our Solar System and the remains of its unstability is enough. It's not because a large object displaced a large comet that it will impact Earth as its prime target. That's 0.0000000001% likely. You would need occurences of such event everyday for the last billion years to raise that probability at a very realistic likeliness, because, before the Earth, there are multiple bodies that serve as our shields : the Sun, Jupiter, Saturn...

That it was, and is a relic from an impact event seemed evident to me, but then, I'm no scientist, so who knows. I've recently looked at it again, and it still looks like a good candidate to me, but nobody seems to be the least interested. Take a look and see what you think. It's at the Southern tip of South America. The impacting object appears to have stuck a glancing blow and bent the Southern tip of South America, as well as the Northern tip of an Antarctic peninsula to the East. It appears to have pushed up islands on both sides of the trench it dug as well as a chain of islands at it's Eastern termination. Whether it glanced off the Earth back into space, or sank into the core, I wouldn't hazard a guess. The gash measures about 550 kilometers wide near the curved peninsulas.

There are simply too many variables to pin a singular cause on dinosaur extinction, not the least of which are impacts like Chicxulub. The Deccan basalts may have played a role in the extinction of the dinosaurs. Nadir may or may not be included. "Roughly 66,000,000 years" leaves a lot of maybes in play. Cheers....

There is no consensus if the Nadir Crater is a crater at all. It might be connected to underseas volcanic activity. It is located directly next to active seamounts driven by hydrothermal vents of volcanic origin. Regarding the Chicxulub Crater, 66 million years ago the Yucatan Peninsula didn't exist yet. Half the crater was in open seas in present day Gulf of Mexico. The other half was in a shallow sea with thick layers of Limestone. The actual Yucatan Peninsula did not form until much later.

Impact creater must follow gravational field path so which must be visible in day light before colloid. No straight line path in solar system since it still revolve sun before impact. Nice video....
