The adventurous journey of Spaceship Earth

During its worst climatic episodes, about 2300 million years ago and about 700 million years ago, the Earth was in deep freeze. Even tropical coastlines would have looked like this scene from Antarctica today, to judge from evidence of stones dropped by icebergs near the equator. The explanation is...
