Krotite is a cosmic relic, one of the oldest minerals in the Solar System.

Here I explore a modified biblical model for the Earth's axial obliquity with the great deluge occurring around 3154 ± 191 BC. A sinusoidal oscillation is proposed to account for small deviations in the model. 30 additional Nautical Almanac data are also added.

I propose a toy model where the Earth's anomalous obliquity changes stemmed from a process initiated by God post-creation, rather than from rapid events like the great deluge.

At some time in the past 8,000 years the planet Earth rocked and reeled on its polar rotational axis. The question is, did that coincide with Noah’s flood? And if so, can we determine from observational data when that was?

The rotational axis of Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.44 degrees to the plane of the planet's orbit around the Sun. How has it changed over the past 7,000 years? Is there evidence of an extraordinary event that changed it?

A stunning new image from the 8.1-m Gemini North telescope, located on the summit of Maunakea in Hawai’i, reveals the Crystal Ball Nebula in unprecedented detail: a lumpy, glowing sphere of gas sculpted by a pair of stars.
