Looking for the cause of extinction of dinosaurs
A study, published in the journal Science, has elevated the position of proponents of the theory that dinosaurs were extinct because of a collision with the Earth of a massive meteorite about 66 million years ago. year.
>>>Extinct dinosaurs are not just meteorites
The extinction of the dinosaurs on Earth is explained by many hypotheses and no hypothesis is generally accepted.
The impact of meteorite with Earth is the decisive blow to extinction of dinosaurs.
Opponents of the cosmic hypothesis point out that since a giant meteorite fell to Earth caused the mass deaths of dinosaurs until the last primitive lizard disappeared from Earth took place in time to 300 million years. It was a time too long to be unbelievable, need to check again.
Scientists have applied modern methods to determine this time period, mainly radioisotope methods, and found that time was actually much shorter, only 33,000 years.
In their opinion, erratic climatic fluctuations in the past few million years brought them to the brink of extinction and the collision between the Earth and a celestial body dealt a decisive blow, causing all kinds of dinosaurs to disappear completely. Evidence in this direction is being confirmed to end the long debate.
