‘Super Comet: After the Impact’ explores what happens if a comet strikes the earth
|
Future tense The series creates an imaginary scenario
The question that plagues the minds of scientists about prehistoric times is: “What killed the dinosaurs?” Evidence suggests that 65 million years ago, the age of the dinosaurs ended with a gigantic asteroid. Could we be next?
Discovery Channel will prophesy the impact of comet collision in its special ‘Super Comet: After the Impact,’ a two-hour special which will explore the future of mankind after an imaginary comet has struck.
After the imaginary impact, the programme will observe the ensuing earthquakes, tsunamis and infernos at close range and also experience how the few animals and people that remain struggle to survive under adverse conditions. A comet is going to hit the Yucatan peninsular. Evacuation plans work well on paper, but when put into practice, lawlessness and anarchy take over.
The planet is dead, or is it? Not all life forms require light, fungi become the dominant force. Find out more on January 13 at 8 p.m. on Discovery Channel.
