The Manson Effect in Iowa

Sat, Mar 14th 2020 at 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

The history of any part of the Earth, like the life of a soldier, consists of long periods of boredom and short periods of terror.
British Geologist Derek V. Ager


The Manson crater is an impact crater near the site of Manson, Iowa where an asteroid or comet nucleus struck the Earth during the Cretaceous Period, approximately 74 Ma (million years ago). It was one of the largest known impact events to have happened in North America. Previously it was thought to have led to the extinction of the dinosaurs until isotopic ages proved that it was too old.
