About 66 million years ago , an asteroid slammed into the planet, wiping out all non-avian dinosaurs and about 70% of all marine species.

The crater it left behind in the Gulf of Mexico was a literal hotbed for life enriching the overlying ocean for at least 700,000 years .

A hydrothermal system created by the asteroid impact may have helped marine life flourish at the impact site.

The science team included researchers from Kyushu University ; the University of Texas at Austin 's Jackson School of Geosciences' Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences' Institute for Geophysics ; the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology ; Vrije Universiteit Brussel , Belgium ; Institute of Science Tokyo .
