BOMBSHELL FROM Nasa--EARTH'S rotation is slowing...uh-oh??!!

Why is there no friction in outer space?

Friction, caused by things in physical contact with each other, is largely absent in space. Space is almost totally empty, so there is no "road" for the space ship to rub against.

Look out the window and stare at a body of water. The Earth is flat and does not move.

From the article-

NASA bombshell: Earth’s rotation is slowing - and it could cause major earthquakes

Earth’s rotation is slowing as our planet uses energy to keep the tidal bulge ahead of the Moon’s orbit. The Moon’s gravity keeps Earth’s rotation in check, and to do this the lunar satellite’s orbit must be slightly ahead of Earth’s. As the Moon attempts to regulate Earth’s rotation and slow it down, the Moon moves slowly away.

According to Matthew Funke, solar system ambassador for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, who wrote on Q+A website Quora: “The Moon’s gravity creates a tidal bulge on the Earth. This bulge attempts to rotate at the same speed as the rest of the planet.

“As it moves ‘ahead’ of the Moon, the Moon attempts to pull it back. This slows the Earth’s rotation down.


“One of the rules of the Universe is that ‘angular momentum’ can’t go anywhere — even if individual pieces speed up, slow down, or change direction, the sum total of angular momentum cannot change.

The Earth loses angular momentum when the Moon slows it down, so the Moon has to gain it — and it does, by moving further away in its orbit

If you understand weather maps you could start at about 13 min in..


Weather Maps PROVE Stationary Earth


A westerly wind should have to overcome the force of a 1000 MPH spin against itself at the equator and thus, a west wind of 50 MPH (for example) should show much tighter isobars on the chart than an easterly wind at 50 MPH. We do NOT observe this in nature. Also, at the poles where the earth spin is less, as we approach them,. the isobars should be farther and farther apart when producing a 20 MPH easterly wind in the Northern Hemisphere - but this is not the case. Isobars are the same "spread" apart no matter where they occur on the earth and no matter what wind direction.


Question everything

did your parents have any children that lived?

The Moon causes tides on the Earth, and the tides create friction.

on Earth, not in Space. Friction happens in space when to objects, like asteroids collide.

What is NAZA's explanation for planets and moons spinning in opposite directions?

is not expected to happen for billions of years
Tomato plants OUT

Not a "bombshell" ... this isn't anything new. It was announced something like 20 years ago too, I've known about it ever since.

It is only perceived as a "bombshell" to the brain-dead social/AI generation, because the headline tells them how to think.

SO, without further adieu, lets clickbait that shit:

"Nasa scientists shocked at bombshell report that earth's rotation is slowing"

Right, just another Brit tabloid trying to exploit a grain of truth and turn it into doom porn for the masses.

Wasn't Leap Year (an extra day once every 4 years) concocted to cover for this issue?

We're talking something like 2 milliseconds a year. Nothing to panic about. This is the reason there are leap seconds every few years, to get atomic time back in sync with the Earth's rotation.

Look out the window and stare at a body of water. The Earth is flat and does not move.

BS!! It’s called a POLE SHIFT.

Right on!! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I thought they were a Muslime Outreach group.

WTF are they doing talking about space and shit?

Angular momentum, lol

What is NAZA's explanation for planets and moons spinning in opposite directions? Big bang?

This thread brought everyone out to discuss....

Cool!

Now, all I have to do is digest all these theories

that cannot be proven and I'm more in the dark than

before....EXCELLENT!!!!





GLP---when you have a grasp on thing's, come here,

we'll fix that for ya!!

















You know...I kid!

No, the extra day is added because it takes the Earth about 365.25 (actually 365.2422) days to go around the Sun.

Yes, and this is the first step towards acknowledging it.
Then it will become clear, why the Red Bull rocket landed just 70 miles from the launch site instead of thousands,

what was the earth like when the moon was way closer in the past?

flattards proving again that they don't understand momentum.

Old news from the 80’s

Just repackaged for the new consumer.

Vogt claims the earth will soon slow down its rotation.
