Earth Science
Bill Nye narrates a video about the discovery of magnetic field reversals, and explains some of the initial evidence for the theory.
This video has a boring voice over, but great visuals to explain how Earth's regularly wobbling tilt can cause regularly occurring Ice Ages. Great challenge extension of the "how seasons work" concept.
IF this theory ^ is correct, what evidence should we be able to find? Could we predict where/when we might find certain fossils? Or the average temperature in a certain era, based on ice samples?
