So she asumes that it was panspermia that brought them to earth, or was something else responsible?

Wonder if there are 'extinction' areas in that orbit.... Maybe we're entering one of the locations that took out the dino's

Still not watched the 1min vid? Some people can`t be bothered I guess.
To save you the hustle, the only thing it points out is that your galaxy is slowly rotating and that at the times of the dinosaurs our planet was on the other side of said rotating galaxy.

You guessed wrong.
As far as I could see there was no mention about what happend in said neighbourhood. All it mentioned was that we were at a specific point in our galaxy. So what did I miss? Maybe you could clarify instead of just being a smartass?

Another 65 Million years to go... But then again it make me think, what are they basing the relative position of our galaxy off?

I was thinking about this the other day. I know we pretty much always think of the Earth with North being "up," and our solar system spinning around counterclockwise through space like a Frisbee, but it's just as reasonable to think of the South as being "up," or that the solar system is flying flat and wide through space like someone throwing a pie.
That's why it's so hard to look at footage of the Earth from the ISS and identify what the heck you're looking at. All the continent and ocean shapes seem wrong if you're looking at it from any perspective that isn't straight at the equator with North at the top.
