Where did the meterite that killed all the dinosaurs land?

Question

I thinks the gulf of mexico

Answer 1

Flora,

I'm no Big Bang expert, but I have read enough that I can clarify some things for you. Just because I effing HATE it when people turn an answer into their personal creationist soapbox. The asker did not even MENTION the Big Bang. What did you do, copypaste a pet answer? "I don't have the slightest idea because I can't be arsed to look it up. But always remember, Jesus is your Saviour. G'day."

"in the beginning there was nothing, and then nothing went bang."

Wrong. the fact that scientists are unable to determine what was before the Big Bang does not mean that there was NOTHING. On the contrary, there was EVERYTHING from Saturn to fleas to Google Maps. If I examine the stomach content of someone, and it's all murky brown smelly stuff, I won't be able to say what they ate, but does it mean they fasted? h**l no.

"In a big bang, all the planets and stars in the Universe would be equally dispersed, not clumped in galaxies the way we see them."

And I suppose if I threw a grenade in a bucket of paint, I'd find the room whitewashed to an even thickness... gotta try that next spring, it sure beats brushing. Random density variations were exacerbated by gravity. Remember "unto everyone that hath shall be given"? It's the same with gravity, only without the weeping and gnashing of teeth.

"And because of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, if the universe was infinitely old"

And where does it say that the Universe is infinitely old? 13.7 billion years are not forever. The stars didn't all switch on in the same moment like a Christmas tree.

"The Big Bang didn't occur any "where" because before the Big Bang there was no "where," no space, no time, no energy...nothing. Yeah, it's hard to get your head around such a concept."

Whereas the concept of a being who exists, simultaneously and eternally, as a mutual indwelling of three persons, the first of which sired the second by means of the third ingravidating a virgin, is easy as pie. I don't know whether to introduce you to the concept of potential energy, or ask what is the big issue for you. Because this concept that you admittedly find so hard is just science's way of saying "let there be light" - and it gets even closer if you look at the original Hebrew rather than the English translation. If things had happened as in Genesis 1:1-4, do you think there would have been a time, or a space, before God created the universe? Did you even know that the proposer of the Big Bang theory was a Catholic priest?

And just so that the asker does not feel ignored... the meteorite fell in the Yucatan peninsula, forming the Chicxulub Crater. Sorry for hijacking your question, but it needed doing.

Answer 2

Yeah, near southern mexico... there are satilite images of craters left behind on Earth that I have veiwed before.... this thing is huge! I'll see if I can find it and post the link. It was the Yucatán Peninsula. I can't remember where i found the really b/a image I saw before of it, but here are a couple links...

Answer 3

you can't prove that dinosaurs existed. did you ever see one? i'm not talking about old bones, they can make anything from a few old cow bones

Answer 4

It fell out of the sky and hit each and every dinosaur in the head - it hit a trex first and then bounced and hit a stegosaur in the head and then bounced and hit a brontosaur in the head and... well, you get the idea. It killed every dinosaur one at a time like this and when it finally landed, we had Mount Rushmore complete with the face carvings.

Dinosaurs exist to this day, though. Those who escaped the great meteor head bounce killing went into hiding. As time passed, dinosaurs adapted and learned to hide in new places. These days, for example, they hide behind the sofa and in the closet.

Answer 5

Yes the gulf of mexico that is the biggest one but no one is sure what wiped out the dinosaurs

Answer 6

this is actually just one of many theories, it has never been proven conclusively

Answer 7

Correct! However this is just a theory. The dinosaurs may have all killed themselves because there was nothing to watch on TV.

Answer 8

pangea in the eurasia area

Answer 9

Well if you look at the Big Bang from an Atheistic prospective, in the beginning there was nothing, and then nothing went bang.

I believe that "In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth", and He did this about 6,000 years ago.

Scientist are coming up with more and more evidence that the Big Bang couldn't possibly have happened. There is just too much scientific evidence against. In a big bang, all the planets and stars in the Universe would be equally dispersed, not clumped in galaxies the way we see them. And because of a law called the Law of Angular Momentum, all the planets and moons in our galaxy would be spinning in the same direction, but that's not the case. And because of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, if the universe was infinitely old, everything by now would be one temperature. Let me give you an example. You walk into a room and see a cup of coffee on the table. I say be careful, the coffee is real hot. You ask me whose coffee is it, and I say I don't know, it's been there for 400 years. You may be laughing, because you know that's not possible, but it's the same with stars, eventually they cool off.

The Big Bang didn't occur any "where" because before the Big Bang there was no "where," no space, no time, no energy...nothing. Yeah, it's hard to get your head around such a concept, but our science has no way of observing or researching any "time" before the Big Bang.

Answer 10

First tell me what a "meterite" is.

Answer 11

at your mom's house

Answer 12

it hit the Yucatan peninsula. If u need any info on it, go google it

Answer 13

wrong Flora, it is from OUR perspective that something came from nothing, just as being on the birthing end of a ultramassive black hole would provide.

Sorry, now back to big rocks from the angry gods.

Answer 14

yeah eitherthat or somewhere near arizona i think...

Answer 15

There was no meteorite that killed all the dinosaurs.

Answer 16

That is ONLY a theory.  So there is no proof and no actual meterite.  IF it did happen,  it was so long ago that no evidence remains.  The shape of the earth and the continents have changed greatly since then.

A large percent of scientist do not believe there was ever a meterite that killed off the dinosaurs

Answer 17

Yucatán Peninsula.
