Martin told me she would army crawl up to the turtles on the sand and dab around their eyes with a foam swab, soaking up the goopy tears they exude. Sea turtles regularly shed tears as a way to expel ...

This period, called the Laschamps excursion, lasted around 2,000 years. The strength of Earth’s magnetic field dropped to just 10% of its current level, while the magnetic poles wandered far ...
