The ablation and vaporization caused by Earth's fall on a decaying trajectory towards the Sun may remove Earth's mantle, leaving just the core, which will finally be destroyed after at most 200 years. [102] [103] Earth's sole legacy will be a very slight increase (0.01%) of the solar metallicity following this event. [104]: IIC
"Those among us who are unwilling to expose their ideas to the hazard of refutation do not take part in the game of science." — Karl Popper, The Logic of Scientific Discovery, p. 18 and p. 280 Thomas Kuhn argued that changes in scientists' views of reality not only contain subjective elements, but result from group dynamics, "revolutions" in ...

The cause of the Tr-J extinction event may have been extensive volcanic eruptions in the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP), [8] which released large amounts of carbon dioxide into the Earth's atmosphere, [9] [10] causing profound global warming [11] along with ocean acidification. [12]
How do hard inquiries impact your credit score? A hard credit inquiry could lower your credit score by as much as 10 points, though in many cases, the damage probably won’t be that significant.
On a flat Earth, the aircraft would have travelled along three sides of a square, and arrive at a spot about 10,000 kilometres (6,200 mi) from where it started. But because Earth is spherical, in reality it will have travelled along three sides of a triangle, and arrive back very close to its starting point.
Hard credit inquiries happen when banks, credit card companies and other lenders check your credit to determine whether to extend you credit. A hard pull hurts your credit score, but fortunately ...
The geologic history of Earth's Moon has been divided into a time scale based on geomorphological markers, namely impact cratering, volcanism, and erosion. This process of dividing the Moon's history in this manner means that the time scale boundaries do not imply fundamental changes in geological processes, unlike Earth's geologic time scale.
