Today, species are going extinct at an alarming rate and we might be heading towards the 6th major mass extinction in Earth’s history. What can we learn from those previous five? One of these “big 5” mass extinctions took place almost 400 million years ago and we are still not quite sure what caused it. Climate scientists at the universities of Münster and Bremen – among them Nina Wichern – are trying to figure that out with the help of … astronomy!
