Humans live short lives, and from our perspective the seasons are
something that come and go with perfect regularity. But
astronomers know the terrible truth! And that there are cycles
that slowly shift over tens of thousands of years, shifting the
cycles and the Earth’s climate. Today we’ll talk about the
Milankovich Cycles! The Earth's orbit, tilt, and other physical
attributes aren't quite as constant as you might think! Come
learn how long-term changes do and don't affect our climate.
