As mentioned in part three of this article, a future realisation that the Australites may actually have precipitated within the past 10,000 years would certainly hit hard. Yet even this hardly…

According to the popular media, no other bolide on record is known to have caused so many casualties. Have any more violent impacts occurred within human memory?…
