Impact, How Rocks from Space Led to Life, Culture, and Donkey Kong is a book about how the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs helped lead to our current world. The author says that at the time of impact, there was a layer of dust around the asteroid. This layer of dust was able to shield Earth's surface from radiation and enabled life to continue existing as it was doing before. It also led to more complex and diversified species emerging on Earth that ultimately led to culture and our sense of self.
