What If Dinosaur Killing Astroid Hit Earth Today?

If a dinosaur-killing asteroid, similar in size to the one that struck Earth 66 million years ago, hit the planet today, the consequences would be catastrophic. The impact would release an enormous amount of energy, equivalent to billions of nuclear bombs, creating a massive shockwave that would devastate everything within hundreds of miles of the impact site. The explosion would ignite wildfires across continents, trigger massive tsunamis, and send vast amounts of debris and dust into the atmosphere, blocking sunlight. This would lead to a "nuclear winter," drastically cooling the planet and disrupting global weather patterns. Agriculture would collapse, leading to widespread famine. The loss of sunlight would halt photosynthesis, causing ecosystems to collapse, and many species, including humans, would face extinction. The global economy and infrastructure would be shattered, plunging humanity into a survival crisis. Although advanced technology might allow for some mitigation, such an event would challenge the very survival of human civilization.
