A recent study by researchers at the University of Illinois revealed that an explosion may have caused an extinction on Earth.
Much has been said and studied about the causes of the various effects that the Earth has had throughout its life. Now, a recent study revealed that a supernova could cause a severe extinction on Earth.
The mysteries of what has happened to the Earth since its formation remain an enigma despite the exhaustive investigations that have been done, such as a new study that revealed a Supernova as the possible cause of a serious extinction on earth.
The new study represents a great importance to understand what is now the planet Earth and the behavior of the various ecosystems, as well as the Universe since it has been stated that a supernova could cause a serious extinction in a period of the Earth.

The Earth has experienced various extinctions throughout its history, although the best known is that of the dinosaurs, it is only the tip of the Iceberg in terms of the events that have eliminated a great trace of the Earth throughout the ages. who have marked her.
Recently, a study carried out by researchers at the University of Illinois revealed that an extinction in which 82% of marine species disappeared approximately 359 million light years ago, was caused by a supernova, contradicting the cause that had been given. know.
This extinction was known to have been caused by a sudden change in Earth’s temperature that occurred in the ozone layer during the Devonian-Carboniferous period 359 million years ago. But now, as a result of that investigation, the cause of the extinction has changed.
Our planet has undergone all kinds of changes in its climate since it formed 4.6 billion years ago, of course this has had a direct impact on biodiversity with several mass extinctions that wiped out much of life on Earth. pic.twitter.com/F9GU2oUehB

Scientists found that the extinction was due to an explosion better known as a Supernova, which occurred about 65 light hands from Earth but released ultraviolet rays and X-rays that reached the Earth’s surface, affecting it so much that it caused the extinction.
