Amazing charts. It looks like Arctic Sea ice consistently increases from November until April and consistently decreases from May until September whereas Antarctic Sea ice does exactly the opposite.

Do you suppose this could be caused by something really weird like the earth tilting toward or away from the sun as the seasons change?

Well the Moon seems to be out of Orbit lately...Tonight it rose to the far left, with Jupiter following close by or maybe that is Venus?

Close! The tilt of Earth’s axis does not change (much). The tilt between the rotational axis (line between the North and South geographic poles) and the plane formed by the orbit of the earth around the sun (nominally 23 degrees, 27 minutes, 5.55 seconds of arc) cause the changing of the seasons and the inversion of the curve of ice formation between north and south poles. If I missed your sarcasm, I apologize in advance.
