The latest research claims that the dinosaurs became extinct after a meteorite hit the earth 65 million years ago in the late Cretaceous period entirely due to "bad luck." New research believes that if the meteorite impact on the earth in the late Cretaceous period had been earlier or delayed
About 66 million years ago, the dinosaurs, which once ruled the earth for 200 million years, suddenly became extinct; the current authoritative explanation is that an extraterrestrial asteroid hit the earth, causing dust to cover the sky and acid rain to cover the earth, cutting off the food
Research led by China's Capital Normal University found that the Mireosaurus, which lived 150 million years ago, had teeth when it hatched. Researchers said in a report published in the professional journal "Current Biology" that as the young dragons grew, they may have switched from carnivor
It can be said that humans are quite familiar with dinosaurs. Whether it is the dinosaur skeleton fossils at the Natural History Museum in London, the dinosaur world in Hollywood science fiction films, or the detailed introductions in school textbooks, from the age of dinosaurs to the extinct
What would daily human life be like without numbers? hard to imagine. What about the animal world? Research over the past few decades has found that animals have the same "number sense" as humans and can use the concept of numbers in life; this number ability is not based on language abili
Scientists say they now have clear support for the theory that an asteroid struck the Earth and wiped out the dinosaurs. The cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs and most of the animal species on Earth has long been debated in the scientific community. Some scientists believe that an aste
A latest British natural science research found that the reason why modern snakes can successfully survive and reproduce around the world must be thanks to the meteorite, an alien object that hit the earth 66 million years ago and exterminated most species, including dinosaurs. Scientists say
It was a disaster we could hardly imagine. 66 million years ago, an asteroid with a diameter of 15 kilometers hit the earth. Its power was equivalent to 10 billion Hiroshima nuclear bombs. The radioactive fireball reduced everything within hundreds of miles to scorched earth, and the impact c

Tyrannosaurus rex was extinct tens of millions of years before we humans appeared on the earth. It is unlikely that we will see tyrannosaurus again in the foreseeable future. Unlike the basic idea of the movie, scientists are very sure that we cannot clone it yet. Dinosaur. The biggest re
Today, everyone knows about dinosaurs, but 200 years ago, people did not know that there were species like dinosaurs in prehistory, let alone that during the Mesozoic Era, 245 million years ago, dinosaurs dominated the earth for 180 million years. . Interestingly, the discoverer of the dinosa
The mystery of the extinction of the dinosaurs 66 million years ago has always been a hot issue of concern to the world. The academic community has proposed a variety of hypotheses, including the famous asteroid impact hypothesis. The reporter learned from the Institute o
Since the discovery of dinosaur fossils by scientists and archaeologists in the 19th century, we have had a long-term understanding of these extinct ancient creatures. But paleontologists still need to unravel many misconceptions about dinosaurs because of inaccurate depictions of
