In March 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck off the east coast of Japan, and moved the Earth's axis, shortening our days ...

Since Kepler's laws of motion dictate that celestial bodies orbit more slowly when farther from the sun, we are now moving at ...

Melting ice is slowing Earth's spin and causing changes to its axis, new studies find. The shifts are causing feedback beneath the surface, impacting the planet's molten core.

Melting ice is slowing Earth's spin and causing changes to its axis, new studies find. The shifts are causing feedback beneath the surface, impacting the planet's molten core.

Earth has therefore tilted it on its axis at a rate of about 1.7 inches (4.3 centimetres) a year, giving a total of 78.5 centimetres, during the 18-year study period.

When the Earth’s ice masses melt, the way the planet rotates also changes. Researchers at ETH Zurich have now been able to show how climate change is altering the Earth’s axis of rotation and the ...

Earth tilted, but it had nothing to do with weird space phenomena and everything to do with how people are pumping groundwater and shipping it across the planet, a study found.. The findings of a ...

New studies, which utilized AI to monitor the effects of climate change on Earth's spin, have shown that our days are getting increasingly longer and that our planet will get more wobbly in the ...

The melting of Earth’s large ice masses has made days ever so slightly longer in recent decades and shifted Earth’s axis of rotation, according to two recent studies.

New studies, which utilized AI to monitor the effects of climate change on Earth's spin, have shown that our days are getting increasingly longer and that our planet will get more wobbly in the ...

The Earth has always had a tilt to its axis of 23.5 degrees, ... "Earth's rotational pole actually changes a lot," Seo said in a statement when the research was published.
