Have you ever wondered why Earth goes through massive climate swings, from freezing ice ages to warmer periods like today?

Kapustin, Between The Lines This debut from British pianist Ophelia Gordon is a solo album – but features two musicians.

Earth's climate has swung between ice ages and warmer periods for millions of years, driven by subtle changes in our planet's orbit and axial tilt. These variations, known as Milankovitch cycles, ...

Recent scientific findings have revealed a startling shift in our planet’s equilibrium. The Earth’s axis has tilted by an unprecedented 31.5 inches, a deviation that defies natural expectations and ...

A recent study examining Martian craters identified that the planet experienced multiple ice ages between approximately 640 and 98 million years ago. This research revealed a consistent pattern ...

Changes in Mars’ axial tilt (obliquity) drive shifts between polar ice caps at low obliquity and widespread mid-latitude glaciation at high obliquity. These cycles result in ice accumulating inside ...

Variations in the axial tilt, or obliquity, of terrestrial planets can affect their climates and therefore their habitability. Kepler-62f is a 1.4 R-circle plus planet orbiting within the habitable ...

A pattern of encroaching and retreating ice sheets during and between ice ages has been shown to match certain orbital parameters of Earth around the sun, leading to researchers being able to predict ...

A new study published last week is giving us a better idea. The research builds on previous hypotheses theorizing that Ice Ages occur on a predictable timeline that relates to the geometry of Earth’s ...

Earth’s ice ages don’t come and go at random; they follow a strict cosmic schedule dictated by the planet’s orbit. A new study has cracked the code behind these glacial transitions, revealing how ...
