Scientists have pinpointed the origin and composition of the asteroid that caused the mass extinction 66 million years ago, revealing it was a rare carbonaceous asteroid from beyond Jupiter, according to a new study in Science. 📄: scim.ag/83F

New evidence points to the giant space rock that killed the dinosaurs being a carbonaceous chondrite, an ancient and rare type of meteorite. By me for @NewsfromScience science.org/content/article/…

Dino-killing asteroid came from beyond Jupiter

Trace metals found at extinction layer implicate rare, carbon-rich type of meteorite

Huilin Jin, a current member of our team, has been doing great work extracting fossil micrometeorites from rocks dating hundreds of millions of years! These "grains", although tiny, could provide large amounts of knowledge on the Earth’s ancient dusty interplanetary environment!

What do meteorites have to do with climate change? @VeroTollenaar, @HarryZeko et al show that ~5,000 meteorties become inaccessible per year as they melt into the Antarctic due to climate change go.nature.com/3U9knwV
