Big news—geologists have finally cracked the mystery behind the last Ice Age! Those massive ice sheets that disappeared over 11,000 years ago? Yeah, they might actually be making a comeback. Scientists have figured out what really triggers these deep freezes, and it all comes down to weird shifts in Earth’s orbit. For the longest time, no one could explain why our planet suddenly turns into a giant snow globe. But now that they’ve found the cause, they can even predict when the next one could hit. The scariest part? The same orbital changes are already starting again. ❄️🌍 Credit: CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/: Makemake: by SebastianSosnowski, https://skfb.ly/o9LAH Earth: by Akshat, https://skfb.ly/6TwGG The Star “Sun”: by ARCTIC WOLVES™️, https://skfb.ly/oTDVZ Foraminifera: by Hannes Grobe, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Foraminifera-diagenesis1_hg.jpg Foraminifera: by Doc.
