Description
The Carolina Bays have long been a source of mystery, appearing to have been formed by impacts from extraterrestrial bodies, yet defying this explanation. In fact, their formation is more closely tied to a lesser-known event in Earth's history: a comet impact 12,900 years ago. This impact, known as the Glacier Ice Impact Hypothesis, provides a crucial link to understanding the extinction event that wiped out large animals in North America and the Clovis people who hunted them. The evidence from the Carolina Bays sheds new light on this pivotal moment in Earth's history.
