In the 2004 cinematic masterpiece ‘The Day After Tomorrow,’ the world witnessed a catastrophic international storm triggering a new Ice Age, a tale that seemed firmly rooted in science fiction. Astonishingly, the underlying science driving this chilling narrative holds a disconcerting truth. Within the span of mere decades, experts warn that melting glaciers could potentially shut down...

Homo sapiens lived in the North Pole 45,000 years ago, before the ice age: they found the evidence. They are the Hyperboreans Evola. He writes Science magazine in its issue 351 of January 15 last year. The proof is in the form of a mammoth carcass, frozen for thousands of years, leading many signs of bullet wounds inflicted by cutting tip and both pre either post-mortem, together with the remains... 

South Korean geneticists to try clone extinct Siberian lions

A South Korean researcher, who was once declared a “supreme scientist” has assumed the task of bringing Ice Age lions back to life, by using DNA from two 12,000 year old cubs which have been found phenomenally well-preserved in Siberia. The frozen animals, nicknamed Uyan and Dina after the river where they were uncovered, date back thousands of years. They were located by a group of researchers... 

Humans killed the Mammoths and Sabretooth Tigers according to new study

Two recent studies into ancient animal extinction appear to diametrically contradict each other, after a new university study claimed it was humans, and not climate change, that caused the demise of mammoths, sabretooth tigers and other ancient species. Just last July, research from the University of Adelaide and the University of New South Wales in Australia, published in the journal Science, made... 

Scientists predict earth is headed towards 'mini ice age' in 2030

Artist’s impression of ice age on Earth at glacial maximum. A 60-percent drop in the Sun’s activity may unleash a “mini ice age” on the earth in 2030, scientists say. A team headed by Proffessor Valentina Zharkova used a new model of the Sun’s solar cycles to make the predictions, presented on the last day of the National Astronomy Meeting in Wales. The team used a technique called...

The Woolly Mammoth at the Royal BC Museum, Victoria, British Columbia. Scientists at Harvard University are one step closer to bringing Woolly mammoths back to life, after successfully inserting some sequences of mammoth DNA into an elephant genome. The study is yet to be published, though, as there is still work to do. No recreation of the Ice Age would be complete without large, shaggy woolly mammoths... 

New ice age may hit Earth as Sun falls asleep

Post Pic
A new ice age could be on its way to Europe and some other parts of the Earth following an alarming fall occurred in the performance power of the Sun, scientists have warned. While the number of gas explosions on the Sun’s surface should be at the peak of its 11-year cycle of activity, but the recent research has indicated an unexpected drop off, researchers say. The occurred phenomenon has...
