Origins : Major impact events that have influenced earth and human evolution.
Impacts of Planetary Bodies, Molecular Clouds, WIMPS, Cosmic Rays, Axions, Neutrinos, Muons, Comets and Asteroids
1.Our
Moon's creation from a Great Impact 4.50-4.52 Billion years ago. 2. Impact Event 3.8 Billion years ago, 3. Impact Event 3.47 Billion years ago. 4. Impact Event 3.3 Billion years ago. 5. Impact Event 3.2 Billion years ago. 6. 4 Major Glaciation Periods during the Past 1 Billion Years. Some may be related to Impacts. 7.The Alamo impact 370 million years ago - as factors to the Devonian double extinction 8. Impact Located at Bedout Dome off the Northwest coast of Australia.251 Million Years ago, WIMP Clump passing , and Volcanism- Associated with the Great Dying/Permian-Triassic Boundary Double Extinction Event 9. Impact Event 65 million years ago (the Cretaciuous-Tertiary boundary event associated with the extinction of Dinosaurs ) and located at Chicxulub Crater in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. 10. Impact Events 10 Million Years ago in Argentina and other places possibly associated with the end of the Age of the great apes. 11. Impact event 3.3 Million years ago associated with regional extinctions in Argentina. 12. Multiple Pleistocene Heat Pulse Events followed by Cooling in Greenland Ice Cores between 40K years ago and 11500 years go.. (Similar to the Younger Dryas Event and possibly related to similar cometary impacts).
14. Cataclysms in the late 3rd Millennium BC (2100-2400 BC), 15. "Smaller" Tunguska Impact Event over Siberia in 1908 causing 800 square miles of forest to flatten 16. Impact off New Zealand coast 500 yrs ago 17. Other Recently Observed Smaller Impact Events
