The Temporal Quirk of T. Rex and Stegosaurus
Prepare for a mind-bending revelation concerning the timeline of prehistoric creatures. Tyrannosaurus Rex, commonly known as T. Rex, one of the most iconic and fearsome dinosaurs, is temporally closer to our era than to its distant fellow dinosaur, Stegosaurus. Stegosaurus roamed the Earth approximately 155 to 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic period.
In stark contrast, T. Rex lived in a distinct epoch, dwelling on our planet around 83.6 to 66 million years ago. Remarkably, this temporal quirk implies that if T. Rex had existed a mere 66 million years ago, it would find itself closer in time to our present era than to the bygone age of Stegosaurus—a mind-boggling revelation that defies our preconceptions of prehistoric chronology.
