It is associated with the end of the Age of the Dinosaurs and the Chicxulub asteroid event that occurred 66 million years ago. The dinosaur killing crater was discovered in the 1990s and is located partially offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, in the Yucatan peninsula, nearest to the town of Chicxulub, where the crater gets it's name.
