Late Heavy Bombardment of early Earth and Moon - 4K stock video

Animation of meteorites falling on the Earth during the Late Heavy Bombardment. This was a period of more frequent asteroid and comet impacts onto the inner planets and the Moon. It lasted from roughly 4.1-3.8 billion years ago. One theory holds that the migration of the outer planets outwards to their current positions disturbed the Asteroid Belt and Kuiper Belt, directing countless asteroids and comets to fall in towards the inner solar system
