Significant Findings of a Platinum Anomaly Across North America from Possible Comet Impact

The chapter explores a recent paper's discovery of a platinum anomaly across North America, suggesting a potential comet impact. Detailed discussions with a scientist specializing in impact proxies like magnetic microspherules highlight the evidence supporting the asteroid impact theory, including platinum group elements, nanodiamonds, and magnetic microspherules. Visual aids and comparisons of impact proxy evidence from various locations emphasize the presence of cosmic impact events, potentially linked to an extraterrestrial impact around 12,900 years ago.
