To show how the Earth's orbit affects our lives, Helen jumps out of an aeroplane and Kate briefly becomes the fastest driver on Earth. In this second episode we travel from January to the March ...

But why do these seasons change every year? The answer lies in Earth's tilt, its orbit around the Sun, and the way sunlight interacts with our planet. The primary reason for the changing on the ...

the common understanding is that Earth’s tilt dominates seasons. That said, my research makes an argument for Earth’s orbital eccentricity being underappreciated in determining our seasons.

More objects are being launched into space than ever, and most are headed for low Earth orbit. This region of space has become increasingly crowded with launches from SpaceX and others that have ...

Space junk has filled up so much of Earth's orbit that it's endangering satellites and astronauts. The company Kayhan Space issues roughly 1,000 space-collision warnings per day. Earth-orbit ...
