Scientific consensus: Giant asteroid killed dinosaurs - Page 2

This isn't a new concept. I remember as a kid hearing about how an asteroid killed of the dinosaurs. So just like Hollywood, the news media is out of ideas now, so they reprint old news?

Reading comprehension fail. Color me shocked.

This is the first time the scientific community has agreed that only one asteroid killed them all. It was believed by many before that it would take multiple strikes to cause that kind of catastrophic loss. Or another event all together.

The researchers wanted to settle disputes about what killed off the dinosaurs. Some theories have argued that it would have taken many meteorites to cause such a cataclysmic event. Another rival theory suggested that the mass extinction was a result of a massive volcanic eruption in India that took place around the same time as the impact.

Only one asteroid is what I heard many years ago. Where did I stutter? Assumption FTMFL.

They didn't do this study for you, they did it for the members of the science community that didn't believe the theory. False sense of importance FTMFL.

You still don't get it.

If you were sharper than a marble, your opinion might bother me.

Rider knows just enough to edit your posts. He doesn't understand science. Don't waste his and your time explaining it.
