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
Yucatán Peninsula years ago was caused by an asteroid impact somewhere in the greater Caribbean Basin. The deeply buried Chicxulub crater is centered off the north coast of the peninsula near the town of Chicxulub. The now-famous "Ring of Cenotes" (visible in NASA imagery) outlines one of the shock-waves from this impact event in the rock of ~66 million years of age, which lies more than 1 km below the modern ground surface near the centre, with the rock above the impact strata all being younger in age. The presence of the crater has been determined first on the surface from the
