As noted in the latest edition of "Sky and Telescope," the geological evidence in the rocks going back about 200 million years shows that the earth is hit about every 60 millions years by a big one. The last hit was 63 million years ago and exterminated much of the planet's life, including the dinosaurs. It will happen again.

It will happen again.

Earth's wild days are almost over. We will never let a large asteroid hit Earth again. It isn't going to happen.

Don't think so

The Asteroid killed the Dinos Hypothesis has been debunked for sometime now, except in the media because it just sounds so cool
