Dinosaurs have lived on Earth for 160 million years. And how did they completely disappear? Scientists explain that 65 million years ago, a meteor of approximately 10 kilometers fell on the planet. The impact would have been so violent that it opened a crater 200 kilometers long. A sort of thick dust cloud blocked the sunlight for six months. The Earth cooled, plants couldn't do photosynthesis, and animals didn't have anything to eat. Result: all dinosaurs died.
