This description of the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs is probably the best piece of writing I've read in a while. That was beautiful. pic.twitter.com/13iLrLrMe2

I’m kind of obsessed with the Chicxulub impact crater. Enjoy!
“… a rock larger than Mount Everest hit planet Earth traveling twenty times faster than a bullet.”
I just can’t get my head around what that would look like.
I suppose the best place you could have been on that day was ground zero. Vanishing in a nanosecond probably the best option.
