There are many theories about climate change. At its core, it is often a question of whether it is man-made or not.

One of these theories is that climate change is not man-made, but rather something to do with changes in Earth's solar orbit, as well as changes in axial tilt.

One particular article in particular appears again and again. This article has different titles. It can be found under “NASA knows the real reasons for climate change – and is silent” or under “NASA: “CLIMATE CHANGE” IS CAUSED BY CHANGES IN THE EARTH’S ORBIT AROUND THE SUN AND CHANGES IN AXIAL TILT.”

The content, however, is identical in both texts. They both talk about the Milanković climate theory and how NASA would hide this effect. In the end, according to this theory, climate change would not be man-made, but would result from a changed inclination to the sun.

The Milanković climate theory actually exists. The Institute of Physics / Institute of Nuclear Physics at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz has briefly examined the theory and also described what it is about ( see here ). You can already read there that the Milanković cycles are unlikely to be responsible for global warming:

However, the currently observed global warming is taking place over a much shorter period of time and can therefore not be explained by the Milanković cycles.

Let's therefore do a fact check on the two articles mentioned above and the thesis that NASA is hiding a lot of things. First, let’s look at the origin of the items.

Origin of the items

The German-language texts are translated content. This is also stated in the articles. What is exciting is that the various articles list the source as “By Ethan Huff on naturalnews.com”. There is actually an English language version of this content ( see here ), but this article in turn says “You can read the full Hal Turner Radio Show report at this link.”

If you now follow the instructions, you actually end up with an original version of this content ( compare ). The article is titled “NASA: “Climate Change” and Global Warming caused by Changes in Earth’s Solar Orbit and Axial Tilt – NOT MAN-MADE CAUSES.”

Who is Hal Turner?

Hal Turner is no stranger. He is an American right-wing conspiracy theorist who, among other things, denies the Holocaust ( see here ). In some places Turner is also described as a neo-Nazi ( here / here ).

The fact-checking colleagues at Snopes have also had to deal with Hal Turner and have exposed his content as false reports several times ( compare ).

On climate change and the Milanković climate theory

But what's the point at this point? Is climate change not man-made, but rather caused by a change in the angle of the sun? Both Snopes and the dpa fact checkers have a clear result on this:

The Milanković climate theory does not apply to this extent. Like the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, the fact checks also come to the conclusion that humans are changing the climate to a significantly greater extent than the natural cycles of the Milanković climate theory can. At this point, the dpa also cites the Max Planck Institute in Bremen, whose researchers explain the Milanković climate theory, but clearly state that it does not speak for current climate change ( see here ):

As humanity has been producing more and more CO2 for 200 years, the natural system can no longer keep up with its breakdown and removal from the atmosphere. Since then, the temperature on Earth has also been rising.

And what is NASA keeping quiet about?

In the end, what would all the content be without a portion of conspiracy? Exactly. Rather boring. And so it happens, as it has to happen, NASA doesn't hide anything. NASA actually wrote about Milanković and his climate change theory back in 2000. But this theory has no connection with the current warming ( see here ).

Instead, NASA explains the reasons for climate change in detail and clearly on this website

Summarized:

If you follow the references in the German source articles, you end up with Hal Turner. The original version comes from him. Hal Turner is an American right-wing radical and conspiracy theorist who has published several false reports on his blog.

The entire text is simply a German translation of his version of the Milanković climate theory. However, the Milanković climate theory does not apply to this extent because its effects would be too weak and the cycles would be too long.

NASA, however, is not hiding anything about it because there is simply no connection.
