"Without Mars, Earth's orbit would be missing major climate cycles. What would humans and other animals even look like if ...

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

At half the size of Earth and one-tenth its mass, Mars is a featherweight as far as planets go. Yet new research reveals the ...

New simulations show Mars plays a key role in shaping Earth’s long-term climate by influencing its orbit and axial tilt over hundreds of thousands to millions of years.

Researchers uncover how Mars affects Earth’s orbit, offering new insight into the planetary forces behind ice ages.

Researchers find that shifts in Earth’s orbit can trigger abrupt climate changes, even in warm periods without ice sheets.

Earth’s slow axial wobbles—known as precession cycles—do not just shape long-term climate trends. A new study led by ...

Researchers discovered Mars subtly affects Earth’s orbit and axial tilt. These small changes help trigger ice ages and ...

Associated Press — Around the globe, hotter temperatures stoked by climate change are increasing the odds of both severe drought and heavier precipitation that can wreak havoc on people and the ...

Climate change is not only warming the planet and disrupting rainfall, it is also quietly rewiring the way nitrogen moves ...
