Beneath Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula lies the Chicxulub crater, a 180-km-wide scar formed 66 million years ago by a 10–15-km asteroid striking at 20 km/s. The impact unleashed energy equal to billions of atomic bombs, causing global wildfires, tsunamis, and a dust-filled “impact winter” that ended non-avian dinosaurs. #ChicxulubCrater | Historical Chronicles

The Chicxulub crater, a vast scar hidden beneath the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, is the testimony of a catastrophic event that altered the course of life on Earth. Approximately 112 miles in diameter, this crater was formed 66 million years ago, the result of the impact of a huge asteroid or comet. This cosmic event is directly linked to the mass extinction that decimated the dinosaurs and most terrestrial species. | Unsolved Mysteries & Paranormal Activities

El cráter de Chicxulub, formado por el impacto del meteorito que extinguió a los dinosaurios, tiene unas dimensiones colosales: Diámetro: aproximadamente 180 kilómetros (incluso algunas estimaciones lo extienden a 200 km). Profundidad original: alrededor de 20 km, aunque con el paso de millones de años se ha ido rellenando con sedimentos. Para ponerlo en perspectiva: Es tan grande que cubriría por completo ciudades enteras como Londres, Nueva York o Ciudad de México. Es uno de los cráteres de im

Buried beneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico lies the Chicxulub Crater. Formed 66 million years ago, the 150-kilometer-wide impact site marks the location where a 10-kilometer asteroid collided with Earth. The force of the collision released energy equivalent to 10 billion Hiroshima bombs, unleashing devastation on a global scale and setting the stage for one of the largest mass extinctions. The immediate effects of the impact were apocalyptic. The explosion generated shockwaves that triggered

FactoAura on Instagram: "This video shows the exact place where a massive meteor struck Earth 66 million years ago, near today’s Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. The impact created the Chicxulub crater, measuring about 180 kilometers (112 miles) wide, making it one of the largest impact sites on our planet. The collision triggered global fires, huge tsunamis, and years of darkness that cooled the Earth and led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. From this single location, life on Earth changed forev
