That article is about new climate models for past climates and correlations to human evolutionary history. The basic driver of that climate change (orbital mechanics) has been known for a century. It does not support any "Solar system-wide" coordinated climate impact and the viability of the study rests on the same climate models that are used to analyze and predict future climate change in the present day.

It's a cool paper, but it doesn't advance your argument.

[Edit: I thought I was responding to a post in your thread about the solar system and climate. Not sure why you posted that link here.]

Weather must not have been appropriate.

Or... perhaps just never went there because it was so isolated and cold, and also beyond the known distance of anyone on Earth at the time.

Right. Everything ran on vegetation.. although if the Antarctic was tropical there was plenty of fuel to go around.

The Antarctic was tropical BEFORE humans came to the scene, during the time of the dinosaurs when it was a part of Gondwana, before breaking off all by itself 30 million years ago.

So should we see fossils and vegetation under all that snow and ice?

Does someone want to address this?


Basically it says that satellite technology has discovered giant pyramids under the ice in Antarctica that are two kilometers by two kilometers at the base.

Ice core samples reveal vegetation similar to that of rain forests.

Conclusion: Antarctica was a tropical climate at one time in the past, and indigenous peoples built giant pyramids during this time.
They don't look symmetrical to me.
Poor design maybe?
