Episode notes
Earth's Magnetic Field Shift Impact
- Earth's magnetic field can shift from dipole to multipole, weakening the field significantly.
- This causes auroras to expand towards lower latitudes and more radiation exposure on Earth.
Magnetic Excursion Radiation Effect
- A 300-year period of severe UV and cosmic radiation occurred during a 41,000-year ago magnetic excursion.
- This exposure critically affected Neanderthals and Denisovans but less so modern humans with protective technology.
Human Clothing Technology Advantage
- Humans developed bone needles and sewing tools enabling tailored clothing for UV protection.
- Neanderthals and Denisovans wore capes that inhibited hunting and offered limited ultraviolet defense.
