Death of the dinosaurs
Death of the dinosaurs. Artists impression of a pair of Tyrannosaurus rex succumbing to the savage onslaught of a global winter brought on by a comet impact with Earth. The dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago, along with thousands of other life-forms, at the end of the Cretaceous Period. The theory that the mass extinction was caused by a cometary impact has recently received support from geological evidence, though numerous other explanations for the death of the dinosaurs have been put forward. It is suggested that a comet hitting Earth would have thrown millions of tons of dust & rocks into the atmosphere, blocking the Suns light & causing a global cooling

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Death of the Dinosaurs" takes us back 65 million years ago, to a time when these mighty creatures roamed the Earth. The artist's impression vividly depicts a pair of Tyrannosaurus rex succumbing to the brutal onslaught of a global winter triggered by a catastrophic comet impact. The theory that this mass extinction event was caused by such an extraterrestrial collision has gained recent support from geological evidence. However, it is important to note that numerous other explanations for the demise of dinosaurs have been proposed throughout history. In this artwork, we witness the aftermath of a cataclysmic event where millions of tons of dust and rocks were hurled into our atmosphere upon impact. This resulted in sunlight being blocked, leading to widespread cooling across the globe. As we gaze at this thought-provoking image, we are reminded not only of the immense power nature holds but also how fragile life can be. Countless species perished alongside dinosaurs during this period known as the Cretaceous Extinction Event. Science Photo Library brings us yet another remarkable piece capturing both scientific knowledge and artistic interpretation seamlessly merged together. Through their lens, they invite us to explore and contemplate one of Earth's greatest mysteries - unraveling what truly led to the end of these magnificent giants who once ruled our planet with unmatched dominance.
