Dinosaurs and nuclear power.
At least we can now rest easy knowing that the dinosaurs were not
eradicated by nuclear power plants or by mobile telephones.
"Scientists have shown that the moon is moving away at a tiny yet
measurable distance from the earth every year. If you do the math, you
can calculate that 85 million years ago the moon was orbiting the earth
at a distance of about 35 feet from the earth's surface. This would
explain the death of the dinosaurs. The tallest ones, anyway."
