Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis

Imagine a world plunged into chaos, as fireballs rain from the sky and massive floods reshape the landscape. This isn't science fiction, but a controversial theory about Earth's past. The Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis suggests that around 12,800 years ago, our planet collided with a comet or asteroid, triggering a global cataclysm. This impact may have caused rapid climate change, mass extinctions, and even the collapse of early human civilizations. While hotly debated among scientists, the evidence is compelling: from nanodiamonds in ice cores to widespread geological features that hint at a cosmic collision. Join us as we explore this fascinating hypothesis and its potential implications for our understanding of Earth's history and the rise of human civilization.
