On: Unknown meteorite found in Swedish quarry

[ams6110]

They mentioned a cooincidence with an explosion of ocean invertebrate life. I wonder why. Are they suggesting there's a connection?

[saiya-jin → ams6110]

there might be, or not. on this scale, +- 1 million years is nothing. but if meteorite shower was intense, it could have affected atmosphere, which in cascading effect could have altered conditions in oceans to be more favorable for marine life.

or about billion or so other possibilities.
