Anton Petrov discusses "Milankovic Cycles" and their impact on Earth's glaciation cycles. The material discusses recent research suggesting that it is **precession** (wobbling of the Earth's axis) that likely triggers deglaciation, i.e., the end of an ice age, while **successionality** (tilt of the axis) plays a key role in maintaining warm interglacial periods and initiating subsequent glaciations. According to the findings presented, the next period of glaciation, ignoring the impact of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, would begin in about **11,000 years**, when the slope of the axis reaches its minimum. The material examines in detail the various orbital cycles - eccentricity, precession and obliquity - in an effort to explain their individual and combined effects in the context of climate.
