Today I flew over the Chicxulub crater left by an asteroid that struck the earth 66 million years ago. The asteroid slammed into the earth on the northern tip of the Yucatan peninsula, killing off most, if not all, of the dinosaurs.
Just think, had I left just slightly earlier (geologically speaking) that asteroid would have first hit my plane, wiping out me and all on board.
Whew!
