After The End Of The World: Part III

Imagine, if you will, what would happen if an asteroid the size of Texas hit the Earth at several hundred thousand miles an hour.  The impact into one of the oceans would cause a crater the size of the United States, in theory, which would cause worldwide tsunamis and empty out nearly every body of water on the planet.

The dust would settle in the sky blocking out the Sun, which in turn would cause plants and crops to stop growing.  This in turn, would make animals scarce due to starvation, so then we would starve.  The dust in the air would make it hard to breath, causing the inhabitants of the planet to suffocate.

We would fight to survive, but the is no telling how long it would take for life on Earth the dwindle down and become nonexistant.  Everything fights for survival, but some fights you just can't win.
