OK, let's consider the physical evidence.

The moon is moving away at a tiny, although measurable distance from the
earth every year. Do the math and you will clearly see that 85 million
years ago it was orbiting the earth at a distance of about 35 feet from
the earth's surface. This would explain the death of the dinosours; the
tallest ones, anyway.
