History of science and technology in Mexico world. There are almost half a million (451,000) students enrolled in electronics engineering programs. There is coordinated push to turn transition Mexico into an innovation economy. Start up, business incubators like Technology Hub in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico have made their missions emboldening the entrepreneurial and start up climate in Mexico. The Chicxulub crater is an impact crater buried underneath the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. The crater was discovered by Antonio Camargo and Glen Penfield, geophysicists who had been looking for petroleum in the Yucatán during the late 1970s. The Alvarez hypothesis posits that the mass extinction of the dinosaurs and
Chicxulub crater of bolide-weakened lithostratigraphy around the impact crater wall. More recent evidence suggests the actual crater is wide, and the 180 km ring is in fact an inner wall of it. Researchers at the University of Glasgow dated tektite samples from the impact as 66,038,000 ± 11,000 years old. The Chicxulub impactor had an estimated diameter of , and delivered an estimated energy of 21–921 billion Hiroshima A-bombs (between formula_1 and formula_2 joules, or 1.3–58 YJ). By contrast, the most powerful man-made explosive device ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, had an energy of only 210 petajoules (formula_3 joules, the yield of
