meteor that killed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago was likely around 50 miles wide
Scientists Discover New Evidence of the Asteroid That Killed Off the Dinosaurs
The asteroid blasted a cavity between 25 and 30 miles deep in the first seconds of impact, creating a boiling cauldron of molten rocks and super-heated steam, according to the scientists’ interpretation of the rock. Rebounding from the hammer blow, a plume of molten rock splashed up into a peak higher than Mount Everest.
Within minutes, it collapsed into itself, splashing gigantic waves of lava outward that solidified into a ring of high peaks, the scientists said.

It’s amazing that they can figure out what happened by investigating the leftover evidence.
An event this big should be covered in the Bible.
