Scientists have discovered evidence beneath the ocean floor linking a catastrophic event to the destruction of Atlantis. Research indicates that a giant comet passed through Earth's atmosphere approximately 12,800 years ago, causing the Younger Dryas period, which led to significant climate changes and extinction events. The discovery of metallic debris and comet dust in Baffin Bay strengthens the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis, suggesting that this event contributed to the extinction of numerous megafaunal species and significant shifts in human populations, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere.
The Younger Dryas onset is associated with significant changes in human population dynamics all over the planet, though mostly in the northern hemisphere. Several independent studies over the last few years have shown conclusively that most of the megafaunal species that went extinct disappeared precisely at that time.
Such cooling events have occurred dozens of times over the last 100,000 years, but none caused megafauna extinctions, wiped out human populations, or deposited a global layer of impact debris like the YD did.
