asteroid did not kill the dinosaurs
Nasa: 'Dino-Killer Asteroid Not The Culprit'
0 Comments12:59am UK, Tuesday September 20, 2011

Sally Arthy, US News Editor

The asteroid believed to have led to the extinction of the dinosaurs may not have been the culprit according to Nasa, the American space organisation.

While scientists are confident a large asteroid did crash into Earth 65 million years ago, it now appears likely the original suspect, the Baptistina asteroid, was not to blame.1dunno1

Re: asteroid did not kill the dinosaurs
New research by Nasa's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) seems to have ruled Baptistina out.

"As a result of the WISE science team's investigation, the demise of the dinosaurs remains in the cold case files," said Nasa scientist Lindley Johnson.

"The original calculations with visible light estimated the size and reflectivity of the Baptistina family members, leading to estimates of their age, but we now know those estimates were off.

With infrared light, WISE was able to get a more accurate estimate, which throws the timing of the Baptistina theory into question."

WISE surveyed the entire celestial sky twice in infrared light from January 2010 to February 2011.

Infrared light allows more accurate size estimates of asteroids than visible light.

Maybe they just "evolved" and did not die out as previously thought.

damn right. their cycle ended, they moved on to other worlds and made way for humans, the second beings on earth with individual source consciousness after the dinosaurs. our cycle will eventually end and the third beings will replace humans

Shit happened then, shit happens now. Didn't get them all though, alligators, crocodiles, sharks, whales, turtles, lizards, rhinos, hippos, insects and some birds, still here. Over the course of 65 million years, you can bet your ass earth has seen its share of doom. Earthquakes, comets, asteroids, solar, lunar, tsunami, volcano, ice ages, you fucking name it, life here has endured it. Species come and go on this spaceship, some are more resilient than others, but the ride is not infinite. Enjoy the ride.

Re: asteroid did not kill the dinosaurs
When I was in high school, there was this girl who's mom was batshit insane. She (and her mother) believed that the United States Navy was breeding dinosaurs in Africa.

She used to get into the most funny fucking conversations with the teachers I've ever witnessed.

it's really funny how many people jump on this nasa theory when on other days all the GLPers are like.. "nasa? SPOOKS! donotbelieveitaaahrunforthe hills!!!"

or in other words, no. reptiles did not evolve and decide to leave the planet into the hands of neanderthals. this is so stupid and far fetching and these nasa scientists are just reaching out because they are about to get laid off being part of the shuttle program that is now exctinct.

Re: asteroid did not kill the dinosaurs
That story had so many holes in it they have been looking for a safe exit. If the asteroid killed all the dinos why didn't it kill everything else? If it did kill everything then all life supposedly evolved since 65 mil years ago.

I thought it was understood now that some dinosaurs evolved into birds, especially the smaller ones.

The larger ones were already dying off before any meteor may have struck. The mainstream theory in recent years, as I've understood it, is that the large dinosaurs were already mysteriously dying off and had for a few million years, then something - probably the asteroid - finished them off completely 65 million years ago.

Because a lot of scientists are just as dogmatic as their counter-parts in religion.

They see religion as a threat just as much a religion supposedly see science as a threat - both want to be seen by the public as the Final Authority on Everything.
