What Really Killed the Dinosaurs?
published by the BBC
This article from the BBC describes some of the controversy in the theory that the mass extinction of the Cretaceous period was caused by a meteorite impact. The crater thought by some to be the site of the impact may actually be much older than the Cretaceous event. The article is a follow-up to a BBC television program.
