Dinosaurs

The time just before the mass extinction event 66 million years ago was a period when many of the most famous dinosaur species roamed the Earth.

With a telescope, it will be possible to spot the comet and its vast tail of dust, which is tens of thousands of miles wide.

Abelisauridae could have weighed up to 3 tons and been up to 36 feet long.

The huge clawed dinosaur was recently depicted in the trailer for Jurassic World: Dominion. Here's what we know about it.

It was a cross between a Tyrannosaurus rex and a great white shark, as it was also able to hunt in water.

In a new documentary, paleontologists find that animals experienced a "wall of death" caused by a water surge after the asteroid hit, as "hell" rained down.

The extinction of dinosaurs had a significant impact on the development of plants, a new study has shown.

In 2019 researchers made discoveries in rock formations, linking findings to both the dinosaur extinction that occurred at 66 million years ago and the present.

Nick Longrich, a senior lecturer in evolutionary biology, told Newsweek that largely complete Triceratops specimens are "surprisingly rare."

Dortoka vremiri's aquatic environment and home in the relatively sheltered Hateg Basin helped it pull through the mass extinction.

The neotheropod fossil, found by professor Mark McMenamin, is thought to have belonged to a dinosaur measuring up to 30 feet long.

The 170 million-year-old fossilized reptile is believed to have been one of the largest animals to have flown in Earth's history.

Whether it's the vastness of the universe, or the amount of insects on Earth, Reddit users delved into some of science's most magnificent facts.

The latest update for "Fortnite" Chapter 3 has introduced giant dinosaurs that now roam the island, much-needed bug fixes and a couple of blasts from the past.

Researchers have discovered a species from the dinosaur age that predated modern aquatic life but was comparable in size to the massive land predators.

Among the remains of at least seven individuals from a species of Hadrosaur is an individual named Bruno, the most complete dinosaur skeleton found in Italy.

A local museum told Newsweek the juvenile skeleton of the Parrosaurus missouriensis will be on display for visitors to see starting next month.

The dinosaur, dubbed Berthasaura leopoldinae, represents a new species.

The footprints were found at Picket Wire Canyonlands, which is home to the largest dinosaur track site in North America.

Minmi, Dilong and Dimetrodon, the names given to the statues, were stolen from the Dinosaur Park in Cedar Creek, Texas, from their exhibit areas last week.

The fossils, which date to between 66 and 68 million years ago, could also represent a new species altogether, according to paleontologists.

Comparing the Ulughbegasaurus to the ancestor of the T. rex is like comparing a grizzly bear to a coyote, said a researcher who helped identify the huge reptile.

The approximately 2,200-pound dinosaur is believed to have been the apex predator of its ecosystem.

Preserved DNA might lead to stegosauruses roaming our parks in science fiction, but real life presents many hurdles.

Researchers set out to investigate the processes that lead to asteroid impacts like the deadly Chicxulub impact event 66 million years ago.

Newly found 66-million-year-old fossilized ripples support a post-impact tidal-wave scenario.

"It was surprising, and I didn't really understand the impact of it in the beginning," said the woman who found the fossil while visiting her son on the dig.

However, the original film lacked attempts to convert the dinosaurs to Christianity.

Researchers estimate that the species could have reached 25-40 meters (82-131 feet) in length.

The paleontologists who made the find believe that it could take years to exhume the remains completely.
