A rebuttal in Astronomy & Geophysics countered that Loeb et al. had ignored that the amount of iridium deposited around the globe, 2.0 × 10 8 –2.8 × 10 8 kg (4.4 × 10 8 –6.2 × 10 8 lb), was too large for a comet of the size implied by the crater, and that they had overestimated likely comet impact rates.
The crater is over 180 kilometers (110 mi) in diameter, making the feature one of the largest confirmed impact structures in the world; the asteroid or comet whose impact formed the crater was at least 10 km (6 mi) in diameter. The crater was named for the nearby town, as well as for the literal Maya translation of the name: "tail of the devil."
O Ses Çocuklar shares the same format with the adult version O Ses Türkiye but has some differences. In the midst of preparations for the 2016 edition, it was reported that RTÜK threatened to cancel the series, stating that the format "contains content that could harm the physical, mental, or moral development of children".

Location of the Chicxulub Crater on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. 1991. Hildebrand and Boynton declared the Chicxulub Crater to be the result of the impact that triggered the mass extinction at the end of the Cretaceous. [50] Hildebrand and others estimated the diameter of the Chicxulub Crater at 170 kilometers. [39]
The Chicxulub crater is an impact crater buried underneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. [10] Its center is located near the town of Chicxulub, after which the crater is named. [11] It was formed by a large asteroid or comet about 10–15 km (6.2–9.3 mi) in diameter, [12] [13] the Chicxulub impactor, striking the Earth. The date of the ...
The crater is more than 180 kilometres (110 mi) in diameter and 20 km (12 mi) in depth, making the feature one of the largest confirmed impact structures on Earth; the impacting bolide that formed the crater was at least 10 km (6 mi) in diameter.
The top of the melt sheet, which is the, "crater floor" and base of the post-impact sedimentary fill, ranges from 1.2 to 1.6 km below sea level as confirmed by drilling (Gulick et al. 2013:44). Interpretation of geophysical data indicates that the sedimentary fill on top of the melt sheet is as deep as 1.9 km (Gulick et al. 2013:44).
