Wegner suggested that continents in the Southern Hemisphere had a colder climate long ago because he believed that these landmasses were once joined together in a supercontinent called Gondwana near the South Pole. This positioning would have made them subject to polar ice caps and glaciers, resulting in a colder climate compared to today.

Does every planet have a hemisphere?

'Hemisphere' means 'half a sphere' So every sphere has two halves. So every planet has two hemispheres. You can divide the planet into hemispheres any way you like. It's common to talk of the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere, or the eastern and western hemispheres, but if you want to suggest your own hemispheres then that's your choice.

What are good Vacation destinations for June?

It depends on where you want to go and what amenities and services you would like. But I suggest that you search it first on the internet to have an idea for your vacation.June is a pretty forgiving month (in the Northern hemisphere)... temperatures are usually mild even in the north. (You might want to think twice about a camping trip in Alaska in, say, February, but by June it's pretty pleasant.)If you're considering a Southern hemisphere destination like Australia or New Zealand, you should be aware that June marks the start of winter there (corresponding to December in the Northern hemisphere) and plan accordingly.

Was it warm in medieval times?

Compared to the last two thousand years before the twentieth century, there was a relatively warm period known as the Medieval Warm Period, which lasted from about 950 to 1250 CE. Northern hemisphere temperatures were probably between 0.1°C and 0.2°C below the 1961 to 1990 mean and significantly below the level shown by instrumental data after 1980, and recent studies suggest that the warming effect might not have extended to the southern hemisphere, which is now thought by some scientists to have been somewhat cooler than the northern hemisphere. The remainder of the Middle Ages was somewhat cooler.
