Me! im stuck as recently as 350,000 years ago, earths orbit had an eccentricity of approximately 0. what does this fact tell you about the relative distances between earth and the sun during aphelion and perihelion?

Zero eccentricity means circle. Aphelion and perihelion distances equal, and radius of the circle

It is useful for historians to write narratives so that history can be passed on from their point of view.  think about a story being told in third person, then think about it again being told in first person, by someone who actually experienced the event.

The answer is a for sure
