New study finds dinosaurs weren’t declining before asteroid impact; a biased fossil record misled decades of paleontology.

Not far from College Station, Texas, we saw an echo of the event that, 66 million years ago, radically changed life on Earth.

For decades, scientists have debated what wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago. The usual suspects? A massive ...

It’s a long-debated issue, but now researchers say the idea Dinosaurs were in decline before the Chicxulub asteroid struck 66 million years ago could be due to fossil collection practices.

Davide Bonadonna Diversity is central to one of the biggest questions paleontologists have about dinosaurs. Namely, were these ancient creatures already on the decline when that fateful asteroid ...

Researchers have proposed many origins for a gravity anomaly in Wilkes Land, East Antarctica, but the latest evidence suggests the subglacial hole is an impact crater measuring 315 miles across.
