Earth's Orbit and Tilt Linked to Ice Age Cycles, Next One Delayed by Climate Change
Research links Earth's axial tilt to past ice ages, showing human-driven warming may prevent future glaciations.
Earth's next ice age is due in 10,000 years, but there's a catch
Scientists have predicted future glacial periods by matching Earth's past ice ages to its orbit around the sun. But their new ...
Scientists match Earth’s ice age cycles with orbital shifts
Earth emerged from the last ice age around 11,700 years ago. A new analysis suggests the next one could be expected in 10,000 ...

Study Reveals How Earth's Orbit Triggers Ice Ages, And There's One in The Next 11,000 Years
Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation ...
Planet revolutions and why the Earth needs leap years
For example, Mercury, being closest to the sun, takes just 88 Earth days to complete one orbit. On the other hand, Neptune, ...
The Next Ice Age Is 10,000 Years Away, Or Is It?
For millions of years, Earth's climate has been driven by natural cycles linked to its orbit, shifting between ice ages and ...
