According to modern scientific theory, all the remaining dinosaurs went extinct during or shortly after the asteroid hit the Earth 65 million years ago.No evidence of a large meteorite
hitting the Earth.
Life did not start after the dinosaurs were wiped out. Life on Earth started billions of years before that. The asteroid wiped out a large portion of life on earth, but not all of it. Some things survived.
The K-T (Cretaceous and Tertiary) boundary event thought to have been caused by the impact of a large meteorite forming the Chicxulub crater as well as very large scale volcanic activity (in this case the large igneous province known as the Deccan Traps) is a very good example and is thought to have been responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs.
What happened when an asteroid hit the Earth is debatable but many scientists believe that this is what may have wiped out the dinosaurs. Some people believe that the asteroid created a dust cloud that covered the planet and caused a winter that froze most life.
It was first discovered by Giaseppe Piazzi on January 1,1801
Scientists usually refer to this as an asteroid, not a comet. It's the asteroid that caused the Chicxulub crater.
Some people believe that the dinosaurs died by a meteorite, but some people believe that most of the dinosaurs were already wiped out when the great mass of rock and ice (meteorite) hit Earth

I Think they died by a big Metor came crashing down and wiped out the Dionsaurs dead now they are R.I.P # R Rest # I In # P Peace
apparently yes. but they were wiped out by a massive meteorite millions of years ago,
The dinosaurs were probably wiped out by the flood of Noah's day.
No-one is 100% sure what wiped out the dinosaurs, but currently the most widely accepted theory is that a meteorite hit the Earth, causing huge ash clouds to block out the sun. With no sun, the plants died out, and with no plants, the herbivores, and then the carnivores, also died out.
Yes. It is the Chicxsulub crater, partially touching both the Gulf of Mexico and the Yucatan Peninsula. It is the place where the meteorite that wiped out the dinosaurs crashed, some 65 million years ago.
scientist think that a huge meteriod hit earth some dinosaurs died.the merteriod killed all plants the meats eaters died of hunger and the plant eaters died of hunger too.the meat eaters died because their food wich was the other dinosaurs died.the plant eaters died because the plants died of the metriod
A meteor.
The correct spelling of the word "dinosaure" is dinosaur. Dinosaurs once roamed the earth up until about 66 million years ago. A large asteroid impacted Earth at this time and wiped out most life forms, including dinosaurs.
You go nowhere.In a typical year there are between 18,000 and 80,000 meteorites of 10 grams or more, which strike earth. But death from meteorite strike is pretty rare: according to the Jet Propulsion Labs (JPL) there have been no deaths caused by meteorite strike in the last 1000 years.On the other hand, if it is really big meteorite, then there may not be anywhere on earth which is safe. It is believed that the mass extinction that saw the end of the dinosaurs was due to a meteorite impact. Most larger species were wiped out.
A large asteroid impacted the earth 65 million years ago, creating the Chicxulub Impact Crater, and killing the dinosaurs.
