2012: Pole Shift

The "Pole Shift hypothesis" is based on geologic evidence that the physical north and south poles of Earth have not always been at their present-day locations; in other words, the axis of rotation had been "shifted". Pole shift theory is almost always discussed in the context of Earth, but other solar system bodies may have experienced axial reorientation during their existences. History proves that a polar shift has happened many times before. Recent scientific revelations confirm that Antarctica has been under ice and snow for only about 10,000 years. Snow/thaw/freeze cycles encapsulated in 2 mile thick ice core samples were once thought to be annual rings, suggesting that ice has been there for 175,000 years. However, evidence from Greenland suggests otherwise.
