The presence of a ring would have also shielded part of the Earth from the sun—in turn lowering surface temperatures dramatically—which could explain the timing of the Hirnantian Ice Age. However, it also could have reflected some light towa...
A recent study claims that Earth may have once had a ring system. This theory sheds light on the presence of an unusual density of impact craters around the equator dating back to the Ordovician period, approximately 460 million years ago. Such a ring could have also played a role ...
Humanity is well into the Anthropocene6, the proposed new geological epoch where human pressures have put the Earth system on a trajectory moving rapidly away from the stable Holocene state of the past 12,000 years, which is the only state of the Earth system we have evidence of being abl...
The earth’s surface and the hydrosphere, as well as the adjacent layers of the atmosphere and the earth’s crust, are jointly called the geographic, or landscape, shell. The geographic shell was the arena for the appearance of life, whose development was promoted by the presence on the ear...
Finally, the Presence takes notice when Nabu is killed, forcing the Spectre into recently murdered Gotham Cop Crispus Allen. Because of the Spectre's actions, the Tenth Age of Magic begins, where the books of Magic are rewritten. The only surviving Lord of Order is Amethyst, while the only...
(Supplementary Information, Table S5) between Sb and the rare earth ions amount to approximately 0.3 electrons (roughly half of the overlap observed for a typical single bond, e.g., 0.6 for SbH3 or 0.7 for YH3), indicating the presence of a weak covalent interaction of the stibolyl Sb ...
Although victorious, Luthor was enraged to later discover that he did not defeat Superman, but a Superman Robot programmed to react to the presence of Kryptonite in the same way as the real Man of Steel. Exasperated at the elusiveness of his triumph, Luthor returned the stolen bullion, ...
At the same time the atmosphere is almost opaque to the earth’s thermal radiation (owing to the presence of carbon dioxide and water vapors in the atmosphere—the greenhouse effect). If the earth did not have an atmosphere the average temperature of its surface would be -23°C, while in...
Loki Laufeyson,[1] is the Trickster God,[1] God of Mischief,[4] Evil,[5] and Lies,[7] a member of the monstrous Frost Giants of Jotunheim that was adopted and raised among the Asgardians, a group of humanoid beings from the pocket dimension of Asgard, th
Human presence and activity are confined to Earth, making it the center of human culture, history, and civilization. In contrast, Saturn represents a frontier for scientific exploration and study, with missions like Cassini providing detailed data about the planet, its rings, and moons, expanding ...
