At left, Luis and Walter Alvarez stand by the rock layers near Gubbio, Italy, where unusually high traces of iridium were found at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary. Was this evidence that of an ancient supernova or an ancient asteroid impact? at 4:25 PM EDT. By Nick Mordowanec. Staff Writer. For the first time, researchers have been able to show hard data that a large injection of sulfur impacted TheCretaceous period ended with the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-Pg) extinction event, when a 6-mile-wide (10 kilometers) asteroid collided with Earth, leaving an impact crater more than 110 miles (180

Dustmight have been responsible for the deadly dinosaur-killing global winter that came after an asteroid slammed into Earth 66 million years ago, finds a study published on 30 October in Nature

Theangle allowed the asteroid’s impact to eject a large amount of dust and aerosols into the atmosphere. “The film is about the last day the dinosaurs lived on Earth – and the minute-by
Evidencesuggests an asteroid impact was the main culprit. Volcanic eruptions that caused large-scale climate change may also have been involved, together with more gradual changes to Earth's climate that happened over millions of years. Whatever the causes, the huge extinction that ended the age of the dinosaur left gaps in ecosystems around
