Always remember, if nature doesn't hit us with another asteroid soon, some asshole with some spare rocket engines strapping them on a bunch of asteroids will certainly make sure it happens. Our species is fucked, asteroid warfare is even cheaper than nukes.

How can carbon dating be that precise?

Quote HistoryQuoted: How can carbon dating be that precise? Carbon-14 dating is typically for stuff 250k years or younger. Ballpark. They use different isoptopes for real old stuff. They also know the geology in certain locales, and that the giant geologic unconformity at that stratum is the geologic horizon for the extinction event. Then they look at the fossil assemblage that sits immediately on that horizon, and go from there. ETA - 50k years max for carbon dating. |

 KT Asteroid Impact |

Posted: 12/15/2021 6:23:07 AM EDT
[#28]
Quoted: This event is sometimes viewed as the true Big One, but there were two larger impacts. Each one blasts earth's flora and fauna back many millions of years. In terms of bolide size, there have been numerous larger impacts from the early Archean onwards. One discovered - though buried - crater (~300Km in size) in Antarctica is antipodal to the location of the Siberian Traps at the time that eruptive sequence began. It also impacted at the time of the initial magmatic pulse's break-through and is considered to be a trigger for the event. The Wilkes Land collision would have resulted in Mag 12 earthquakes whose seismic waves converged at the Traps areas. Localized faulting of the lithosphere would have let the first round of melt break through to the surface and begin the flood basalt deposition process associated with the Traps. Phase 2 of the event is what caused the Permian extinction due to enormous release of CO2. This was accomplished by igneous intrusions into coal-bearing strata and the resulting combustion of thousands of cubic miles of the material. There are a number of other confirmed impacts larger than Chicxulub but they sit outside the periods where life had established a stronghold. Nonetheless they probably didn't do the planet any favors. Wilkes Land is also thought to have initiated the breakup of Gondwana via rift generation, much as the Barberton Greenstone event is suspected of giving rise to the mechanism that drives current plate tectonics. |

What I find fascinating is that the atmospheric pressure was much more dense back then. You could actually have foot long dragonflies and mega insects because of this. I would like to see an accurate time traveler show where the characters go back to this dinosaur age and get fucked up because of the massive air pressure.

What I find interesting is that by the time the dinosaurs were wiped out, there were already fossils of dinosaurs that were older to them than most we have today. The early dinosaurs had gone extinct more than twice as long ago for them as the most recent ones to us. In other words, the dinosaurs killed by the Chicxulub impactor were much closer to us in terms of years than they were to the early dinosaurs. The Triassic-Jurassic extinction event which is largely unexplained, took place about 135 million years before the end of the dinosaurs. In fact it was more than twice as distant in the past as the measly 66 million year ago event.
