New NASA Maps Show A Bad Day On Earth

Posted by timothy on from the that-is-a-bad-day dept.

Stephen Lau writes "ScienceDaily has an article talking about the new NASA maps that reveal the geography of the North American continent in amazing detail. One of the maps provides strong evidence of a 112 mile wide, 3000 foot deep impact crater which they believe was the comet/asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs and more than 70% of Earth's living species 65 million years ago."

      In other news:
      recently published satellite maps show the 3000 feet deep, 112 miles wide crater subsequent to the explosion of a NASA webserver during the second slashdotting in two days.

    After being posted at slashdot, a huge impact crater where the photojournal server once stood could be seen via a huge red splotch on the mrtg graph for the nasa.gov domain.

    What a horrid sight to behold. The smell of smoke and melted silicon could be inhaled for miles around. :P
