Ceres Probably Formed Farther out in the Solar System and Migrated Inward - Universe Today
When Sicilian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi spotted Ceres in 1801, he thought it was a planet. Astronomers didn’t know about asteroids at that time. Now we know there’s an enormous quantity of them, primarily residing in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Scientists may have found fragments of THE asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs
Paleontologist Robert DePalma has done it again.
In 2019, DePalma and colleagues found that a massive surge of water must have fallen upon Tanis as a result of a vast earthquake triggered by the asteroid impact, rapidly depositing sediments that covered all sorts of animal remains, including fish, a turtle impaled by a stick, and a leg that ...

Idaho & Montana Share A 600 Million Yr Old Hidden Asteroid Crater
Millions of years before Idaho could be located by its current planetary coordinates, scientists hypothesize the landmass was part of a supercontinent located within the modern-day Antarctic Circle .
How many of you have ever heard of the Beaverhead impact site? The crater is one of the planet's largest, and takes up space in both Idaho and Montana, according to data at craterexplorer.ca . Thousands of acres of woodland now cover the impact zone.
The asteroid is scheduled to make its close approach on May 27, when it will come within around 2.5 million miles o… https://t.co/IaLp2qg6gY Newsweek (from New York, NY) Thu May 19 02:54:18 +0000 2022
