Description

New scientific evidence is changing how we understand the dinosaur extinction. The Chicxulub asteroid struck Earth 66 million years ago, but the impact itself may have been only the beginning. In this cinematic dinosaur documentary, we reconstruct what happened before, during, and after the asteroid impact that ended the Cretaceous Period. Discover how Chicxulub’s impact angle may have intensified the catastrophe, sending dust, soot, and sulfur compounds into the atmosphere and transforming Earth into a cold, dark world. We investigate the global heat pulse, impact winter, collapsing food chains, ocean acidification, hydrothermal activity inside the crater, the expansion of fungi, the Deccan Traps eruptions, and the possible Nadir impact structure beneath the Atlantic Ocean. Why did non-avian dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops disappear while birds, mammals, crocodilians, and other animals survived? And could life have begun recovering much sooner than scientists once believed? This is not simply the story of an asteroid. It is the reconstruction of a planetary chain reaction that changed life on Earth forever. Subscribe to Primordia for cinematic documentaries about dinosaurs, prehistoric life, evolution, mass extinctions, and the lost worlds of Earth. #Dinosaurs #DinosaurExtinction #Chicxulub
