—reminds me of a couple of ideas from tenured “professors” some years ago—
A) Straighten up the earth’s axis to eliminate seasons —
B) Blast the moon into fragments to give Earth rings like Saturn—
Option B would be catastrophic for the Earth. We would lose the stabilizing force on our axial tilt. Earth’s tilt would start varying chaotically between 0 and 90 degrees as the other planets started tugging on it. That’s the problem Mars has now.
