Scenarios about 'chicxulub impact'
The Chicxulub impact refers to the collision of a massive asteroid with Earth approximately 66 million years ago in what is now Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. This cataclysmic event created a crater over 150 kilometers wide and is widely accepted as the primary cause of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event that eliminated roughly 75% of plant and animal species, including non-avian dinosaurs. In alternate history scenarios, modifications to this impact's timing, location, or magnitude often explore how Earth's evolutionary trajectory and human existence might have developed differently.
