Chicxulub strikes back ! Mass extinction in real time

The last day of mankind and Cenozoic is coming. The red comet discovered last summer is the twin of the impactor who wiped out dinosaurs 66 million years ago. Same mass, same size, same impact location. Chicxulub impactor was probably an asteroid, but a comet is more beautiful. The comet has simply to be bigger than an asteroid to release the same impact energy. Here the impact parameters : diameter : 17 km density : 2630 kg per cubic meter velocity : 25 km/s impact angle : 60° Source : you’re right, this is the updated version of my first impact simulation released one year ago. Better rendering, enhanced maps quality, and new features, such as the firestorm induced by the atmospheric reentry of the impact debris. Maps have been produced using Rstudio, and the pre-impact visuals come from Space Engine. ------ TIMECODE ------ 0:00 Introduction 8:30 Skip #1 11:41 Skip #2 13:49 Impact ! 23:09 Los Angeles hit by the Earthquake 27:38 Ejecta heat wave begins 31:08 Destruction of New York 35:08 Amazon rainforest burns 36:27 First nuclear power plant destroyed by the blast 43:39 The earthquake reaches the antipodes of ground zero 57:38 Mexico City destroyed by the blast 58:38 London and Paris are burning 1:00:19 All America is burning 1:03:08 Miami destroyed by the blast 1:06:20 One billion dead 1:07:09 End of thermal radiation 1:11:38 Orlando an Austrin blasted 1:21:39 End of the impact earthquake 1:24:23 2 billion dead 1:54:39 Ejecta cover all Earth 1:56:27 5 billion dead 2:02:59 end of the firestorm 2:12:07 New York flooded by the tsunami 3:20:08 Western Europe flooded by the tsunami 4:32:08 The tsunami is going out of Atlantic ocean 5:15:37 The heated air generated by the thermal radiation is mostly dissipated 6:00:07 Conclusion ------ SOUNDTRACK ------- Denis Villeneuve Dune - Dream of Arrakis Mass Effect - Sovereign theme Cryo Chamber - Dark dungeon music Cryo Chamber - Songs from Abandoned Space Stations and Alien Temples Cryo Chamber - Winter Dungeon Music Arctica & DeepDark - Mystical Path (Ambient, Dark Ambient, Space, Drone) Space Ambient Mix 33 - Frozen Dreams by The Intangible Mass Effect 3 - Leaving Earth ------ MOVIE SCENES ------ Terminator 2 Knowing Indiana Jones 4 the Day after tomorrow War of Worlds ------ SOURCES ------ crater simulation : Nuclear war alert : Comet Telos Impact : Earthquake makeup : Miracle Planet : Russian radio chatter : - Impact simulator : - Tsunami wave height and velocity: - Earthquake wave propagation velocity: - Post impact climate change : - Atmospheric reentry heat load: ------ PALEO-MAPPING PLAYLIST ------ ------ INSTA ------
