On July 9, 2025, scientists at the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) reported that the Earth ...

But with atomic clocks tracking the Earth’s rotational speed so closely that once every year and a half or so, the ...

When large masses of water are moved from one place to another, this changes the shape of Earth and leads to a phenomenon ...

The Earth's rotation has altered significantly over time. Right now, the Earth rotates just over 365 times on its axis in the time it takes to orbit around the Sun – this is our number of days in a ...

July 9 was predicted to have a shorter "length of day" than usual due to an increase in Earth's rotation speed. See which ...

Instead Earth’s so-called “True North Pole” is whichever place that is northernmost on the planet, a fact determined by where the globe’s axis of rotation meets its surface.

As for when this three-day event will happen, there are three days this summer when the moon will be around its furthest ...

However, the movement of the Earth’s axis is not large enough to affect daily life, he said: It could change the length of a day, but only by milliseconds. Jonathan Overpeck, a professor at the ...

The melting of glaciers as a result of climate change has knocked the Earth off its axis, according to new research. The North and South poles have moved about 13 feet since 1980 – with melting ...

Our circumstances here on the wondrous, life-supporting Earth can give us a false understanding of what the universe is ...

So, the Moon stabilizes Earth’s obliquity, and Earth doesn’t wobble on its axis as much as Mars does. Exoplanet seasons. Thousands of exoplanets, or planets outside our solar system, ...
