Chicxulub asteroid impact, illustration
Asteroid impact. Illustration of a large asteroid colliding with Earth on the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. This impact is believed to have led to the death of the dinosaurs some 65 million years ago. The impact formed the Chicxulub crater, which is around 200 kilometres wide. The impact would have thrown trillions of tons of dust into the atmosphere, cooling the Earths climate significantly, which may have been responsible for the mass extinction. A layer of iridium-rich rock, known as the K pg boundary, is thought to be the remnants of the impact debris

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the dramatic moment when a colossal asteroid collided with Earth, forever altering the course of history. The illustration depicts this monumental impact on the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, known as the Chicxulub asteroid impact. Approximately 65 million years ago, this cataclysmic event is believed to have brought about the demise of dinosaurs and numerous other species. The artwork vividly portrays the sheer magnitude of destruction caused by this collision. The resulting Chicxulub crater, spanning an astonishing 200 kilometers wide, serves as a haunting reminder of our planet's turbulent past. Trillions of tons of dust were hurled into the atmosphere upon impact, leading to a significant cooling effect on Earth's climate. This chilling consequence may have played a pivotal role in triggering mass extinction events across various ecosystems. A layer of iridium-rich rock referred to as the K-Pg boundary serves as tangible evidence for scientists studying this ancient catastrophe. It is believed to be remnants from the debris generated by this colossal collision. Through intricate three-dimensional computer artwork and astronomical expertise, Mark Garlick has masterfully captured both scientific accuracy and artistic interpretation in this awe-inspiring piece. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded not only of our planet's tumultuous past but also its resilience and capacity for rebirth amidst adversity.
