The Triasic terminator is 213mya per several reputable sources, one being the USGS and another the Canadian Museum. 1)USGS:

2)Canadian Museum:

You may want to review your http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manicouagan_Reservoir. text. The Impact 212+/-2mya does coincide with the Trassic terminator date 213mya.

Dang. This thing DOES look like Strong Sad. UndeniablyJordan 03:21, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Split articles?

Most impact craters have their own articles. But while this is one of the larger impact craters on Earth, its article is tacked onto the reservoir article, which is important in itself. I'm giving notice that I intend to separate into two linked articles, in the process beefing up the impact article with more references. --Zamphuor 15:32, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Strong Sad

It was here for a while, but that is better suited to Strong Sad's article. --Jnelson09 20:38, 8 June 2007 (UTC)


1,950 square metres? It's much larger than that. That's only a couple of acres.
