Dinosaurs were killed by 2 meteorite strikes..

and not one.

Previously, scientists had identified a huge impact crater in the Gulf of Mexico as the event that spelled doom for the dinosaurs.Now evidence for a second impact in Ukraine has been uncovered.

Story from BBC.

Two strikes, Holmes?” asked Watson, understandably upset.
“Yes, Watson, consider the evidence,” replied Holmes. “We have much to learn from the ferns…”

I think it’s a little early to call it a consensus view. People are always trumpeting their discovery as the real dinosaur killer (look at all the vulcanologists and the Deccan Traps). I’d say “new evidence suggests” and wait a bit to see how it pans out.

Pretty interesting though.
