Description
- Overview:
- This film traces the uncovering of key clues that led to the stunning discovery that an asteroid struck the Earth 66 million years ago, triggering a mass extinction of animals, plants, and even microorganisms. Each act illustrates the nature and power of the scientific method. Representing a rare instance in which many different disciplines (geology, physics, biology, chemistry, paleontology) contributed to a revolutionary theory, the film is intended for students in all science classes. Supporting materials are provided.
