impact was so immense that it triggered widespread wildfires, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. The resulting debris and dust ejected into the atmosphere blocked out the sun, leading to a global phenomenon known as an impact winter. This period of darkness and cold temperatures persisted for months, if not years, disrupting the global climate and severely impacting ecosystems. It is widely believed that this event contributed to the mass extinction of numerous species, including the dinosaurs, marking the end of the Cretaceous period and the beginning of the Paleogene period. Despite the devastation it caused, the Chicxulub impact also paved the way for the rise of mammals and eventually the evolution of humans. Today, the Chicxulub crater serves as a poignant reminder of the power and unpredictability of celestial events in shaping the history of our planet
