Chicxulub Impact - V9
Asteroid impact. Illustration of a large asteroid colliding with Earth on the Yucatan
Peninsula in Mexico. This impact is believed to have led to the death of the
dinosaurs some 65 million years ago. The impact formed the Chicxulub crater, which is
a...

Earth Past and Present
Artwork showing the Earth now (right) compared to how it might have looked around 2.4
