What Dinosaurs, Pyramids, and the Atomic Bomb Have in Common - Inspired by Collisions video: Check out Collisions: A Physicist's Journey from Hiroshima to the Death of the Dinosaurs, by Alec Nevala-Lee at https://bookshop.org/lists/scishow-recommended-reading. This video was made possible by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. To learn more, head to https://sloan.org/programs/public-understanding.
