    OK, the hypothesis suggests an impact (singular). But what if there were multiple smaller impacts instead over a short space of time? We tend to think in terms of big, dramatic disasters, and yes, they can happen, but more often than not, a lot of change is driven by lots of little things all happening at once, or over a short span of time. Our bias towards big dramas may have us looking for completely the wrong thing in the wrong place!

    I do not know if an extraterrestrial impact occurred near the time of the Younger Dryas. However, the extinction of the megafauna around that time was not caused by an impact.
    Most people are shocked when I tell them that surface gravity on PART OF the Earth’s surface was increasing from a lower level at that time. My two books ‘Ice Age Extinctions, A New Theory’ and ‘The Gravity Theory of Mass Extinction’ explain how a gravitational gradient around the globe has happened in the past.
    Briefly, when a large surface mass on the Earth moves to high latitude (e.g., sea water to ice), and therefore closer to the rotational axis of the Earth, something must happen to conserve the angular momentum of the Earth. That something is the offsetting of the Earth’s core elements from centricity which results in a gravitational gradient; lower surface gravity in one longitudinal region and a commensurate increase in surface gravity antipodally.
    This happened during every glacial period lowering surface gravity in a region. This process reversed during every following interglacial period causing extinctions due to the increased surface gravity.
    The question is why was it so devastating in the last interglacial period (20K to 14K years ago)? The graph of temperature during this period does show a greater increase in temperature during the final interglacial. However, a graph of the amount of polar ice melted during this and prior interglacial periods would be of value.

    The more the science and technology evolves, the more sceptical i grow of our known archeology and geology. The charcoal spike we created in merely 150 years of time is nothing on an earth geological scale. But totally different than most natural events. I don´t jump on board of controversial "lost civilization" theories right away but i have agree with ideas like saying if we were hit now by a cellestial object who knows what would be left behind a couple of hundred years later, maybe nothing at all. So proposing we could explain things that long ago just by looking at layers of soil without knowing the other context is at best hypocritical.

      Because that level of extinction of nearly all megafauna species, including the large predators, would require that these stone age hunter gatherers killed mostly for sport instead of for food and resources. Why would the people who allegedly just crossed a land bridge from Siberia into North America suddenly go blood thirsty against all of the largest and most dangerous animals, the toughest of prey, when they didn't do that in Eurasia? Why wouldn't these blood thirsty tribes wipe out all the other tribes and move back into Africa and make all of their megafauna extinct too? I mean, these stone age weapon makers wereso good at hunting they were able to kill of an entire continent's megafauna, why wouldn't they have done the same on the previous continent's they inhabited? The real desperation is when people just blame humans for everything even perceived as negative when it comes to the environment.

    An impact crater doesn't need to exist. If many fragments were to enter our atmosphere and explode as many airbursts, the destruction would be worse than a single impact of similar mass. That's why nuclear bombs explode at elevation. More energy is distributed to a wider area. This has been documented many times.
    We move through the Taurid meteor belt twice per year but this debris belt doesn't have an even distribution. We may have passed through a higher concentration of larger comet debris more than once, which rained down and exploded. There might have been larger meteors, along with the airbursts, that did make an impact on the Canadian ice sheet, where a crater was muted into soil and later buried as the glaciers melted away. The Carolina Bays are thought to be formed by ice ejecta and point to Michigan and Canada as the impact origins.
    The fact that researcher still point to a missing impact crater as proof of no extraterrestrial source of a Younger Dryas catastrophe is disingenuous at best.

      No geologists thinks the Carolina Bays are impactor pr ejecta marks.

    No way could subduction remove a crater that quickly, this lossy goosy 'it could always be an impact if we just find the crater' is really unscientific. We have way too much fetishizing of impacts from the pop culture fallout of the KT impact theory, which almost cetainly did NOT the cause that Extinciton. It was the flood vulcanism which has coincided with eache of the 5 great mass extinctions and in proportion to the severity of said extinctions. The nice thing about flood vulcanism is that a million cubic kilometers of lava deposits dosn't get erased by errosion even after billions of years so can't go around hypothesizing them out of thin air.
