It was probably too fantastic to think a great cosmic event caused it, or at least made extinction faster. Also simply the crater was discovered in 1970s. Not every day such a massive chunk of solid stuff comes from cosmic depths to cause mayhem on earth, so that is justified that they thought it was only drought.

The impact hypothesis was proposed by two scientits, father and son Walter and Luis Alvarez. I think I read their book on the story, IIRC it all started with the discovery of a rock layer when many abundant fossils all but disappear and many were never seen again, right at the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleogene ages. At that same boundary also was found evidence of great fires (a very thin layer of soot) in rock formations around the planet, as if something had caused a massive conflagration ina very short span oftime. The theory of an alien impactor gained traction when the Alvarez and their teams also found an unusual amount of iridium right at the extinction layer, iridium being very rare on Earth but more common on asteroids. The quantity of iridum was diminutive but consistent across different geological records, which was coherent with an impactor disintegrating and iridium rich dust from it raining all over the planet. And eventually the Alvarez found evidence of what is called the Chicxulub crater, a massive impact crater severely damaged by time but still discernible in Mexico. It’s an interesting book, the title was “T. Rex and the crater of doom” or something like that. Anyway, I’m going to sleep now… so, nighties lovelies!

It’s on my to-do list, but the Spanish download is (or was) kidnapped by a pirate group holding the keyword to unzip one of the episodes of Season 1 (which was broadcast on TV in Spain).
