Unraveling the Mysteries of Earth’s Precession: A Journey through Time
Historical AspectsUnraveling the Mysteries of Earth’s Precession: A Journey Through Time What’s the Deal with Precession? Basically, axial precession is a fancy way of saying Earth’s axis is slowly but surely changing its orientation, all thanks to gravity. Imagine Earth’s axis drawing a huge, lazy circle against the backdrop of stars. This motion messes with the
