This is the voice of high midsummer’s heat.
The rasping vibrant clamour soars and shrills
O’er all the meadowy range of shadeless hills,
As if a host of giant cicadae beat
The cymbals of their wings with tireless feet,
Or brazen grasshoppers with triumphing note
From the long swath proclaimed the fate that smote
The clover and timothy-tops and meadowsweet. C G D Roberts, The Mowing

This is the K-T boundary. And because it’s such a thin sharp line we know something dramatic must have happened here. Some catastrophe. And until recently we had no clue whatsoever here. And it remained a total mystery. So as soon as you find 10,000 times more iridium at the very moment when the dinosaurs disappeared, you know somewhere on Earth a very big impact must have happened by an asteroid or a comet ... You know something hot happened, and hot is associated with an impact. Professor Jan Smith
