New research reported by Gizmodo indicates that Earth's axis tilted substantially on its side multiple times during the age of dinosaurs, not just once. The finding points to significant shifts in the planet's orientation over geological time, adding to scientific understanding of how polar wander and plate tectonics shaped ancient climates and ecosystems during the Mesozoic era.
Why now: A newly reported study about dramatic ancient shifts in Earth's axis is drawing attention from science readers.
