A Chaotic Mars-Earth Planetary Cycle May Have Contributed to One of Earth’s Major Warming Events
As Earth and Mars orbit the Sun, they pull on each other gravitationally, causing their paths to stretch and relax in a cycle that repeats roughly every 2.4 million years. These subtle orbital shifts change how close the planets approach the sun, which in turn can alter their long-term climate patterns.
