Impact of cosmic impacts
Speaker: Ferenc Ivanics, President of the Bakony Astronomical Association
What happens when our planet collides with a large piece of cosmic rock? How can the extinction of dinosaurs be linked to these catastrophes?
Is every major impact an extinction event? Where are the best-known impact craters on Earth?
Why is the German Ries grid interesting? What can we learn from its analysis?
How can we protect ourselves against a potentially dangerous celestial body?
In our presentation we will seek answers to these questions, among others.
After the programme, the BCsE meteorites will be presented.
Free admission to the event
