  • The objection was based on one simple observation, earth has been hit many times...
  • 这种异议基于一个简单的发现,地球已经遭受过多次碰撞,
  • and these impacts, even the really big ones, seldom coincide with mass extinctions.
  • 而这种碰撞,哪怕是最大的碰撞,都很少与物种大灭绝相关联。
  • For the very large craters that we think might have produced global effects,
  • 我们通常认为那些巨大的陨石坑会造成全球性的影响,
  • in some cases they don't line up with any extinction events whatsoever
  • 但是一方面它们没有关系到任何一次灭绝事件,
  • and in other cases extinction events, very well dated extinction events
  • 另一方面,就清楚记载的灭绝事件而言,
  • have occurred that are not associated with any impacts.
  • 它们的发生都与碰撞无关。
  • Because of this, some scientists had long doubted that any impact could have wiped out the dinosaurs
  • 基于这个原因,一些科学家一直都在怀疑究竟是不是大碰撞导致了恐龙消失,
  • and now there is new evidence which seems to reinforce those suspicions.
  • 现在他们的疑虑有了新的证据作为支撑。
  • The new evidence relates to the forest fires that were said to have raged all over the world.
  • 这些新的证据,与据说肆虐了整个世界的森林大火有关。
  • They seem to have been supported by soot in the KT boundary layers,
  • 支持该理论的证据是存在于第三纪界线层中的烟灰,
  • but the problem with soot is that it can be blown thousands of miles from where the burning actually happened,
  • 但是烟灰有可能是从实际发生火灾的数千英里之外被吹到这里来的,
  • so one researcher decided to investigate a more reliable kind of evidence... charcoal!
  • 所以一位研究人员决定着手调查一种更为可靠的证据:木炭!
