GREENLAND WATER CIRCULATION
A vast ocean conveyor carries water from Greenland through the Atlantic for 350 years and shapes rainfall in Brazil; 15,400 years ago, it suddenly surged beyond today's strength- In 2015, NASA's New Horizons flew past Pluto and captured detailed images of its frozen surface. More than a decade later, scientists revisited the images and found evidence that liquid nitrogen may have once flowed across the dwarf planet
