DID AN ASTEROID REALLY KILL THE DINOSAURS?

Planetarium program


65 million years ago the last of the non-avian dinosaurs vanished from the fossil record. Scientists have discovered evidence that an impact from an extra-terrestrial object occurred at this time. Is it possible that an asteroid collided with the Earth and wipe out T. Rex, Triceratops, and rest of the dinosaurs? Find out in this dynamic presentation.
