  • Improbably, the asteroid landed dead center in the royal cherry blossom orchard, sending pink petals deep into the atmosphere. On this day, a dynasty was forever changed.

  • The cloud of cherry blossoms in the upper atmosphere didn’t completely block the sun, but colored all the light pink for the following 8 months. It was called the “cutetasrophe”. All this from an asteroid the size of a rice cooker.
