New research suggests that Earth’s orbital variations—the slow changes in its tilt, axial precession, and shape of its orbit—may influence the timing of massive volcanic eruptions, reshaping our ...

All winter long, I have been meaning to write about the little constellation Aries the Ram, and finally, on this last weekend ...

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 ...

Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation before rising up again to the more temperate climes we experience today.

The key players in these cycles are Earth's obliquity, the precession of its rotational axis and the shape of Earth's orbit around the sun. Breaking space news, the latest updates on rocket ...

Dec. 5, 2024. (AP Photo/John Raoux, File) Climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the planet too, a new study finds.

You can find him on X @gamegriffin. Languages: English Alien: Earth is the highly anticipated sci-fi spinoff series expanding the Alien universe. In this article, we've got all the latest news ...

Earth's tilt and orbit shifts regulate ice age cycles over 800,000 years Scientists say the next glaciation was due in 11,000 years Rising CO₂ levels could prevent future ice ages entirely ...

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 ...

NASA is tracking a bus-sized asteroid zipping past the Earth at nearly 16,000 miles per hour today. The asteroid, known as "2025 DM7," is estimated to be about 42 feet across and soared past our ...

Earth's last ice age ended around 11,700 years ago and a new study predicts the next one should be 10,000 years away. But the researchers say record rates of fossil fuel burning that are ...
