Planet Earth will spin a little faster on three separate days this summer, starting today. This will technically result in ...

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

The science behind why the Earth will spin just a little bit faster on July 9, July 22, and August 5, this year.

Earth spun a little faster than usual, enough to make the day about 1.3 to 1.6 milliseconds shorter than the standard 24 hours.That may not sound like much, but it was the shortest day since modern ...

Thanks to atomic clocks (and all the worldly forces that influence them), scientists know that Earth's rotation has begun to ...

Earth completed its normal 24-hour rotation 1.59 milliseconds fast on June 29, breaking the record for the shortest day in modern history.

Earth's rotation has been increasing making June 29 being the shortest day ever recorded since the introduction of the atomic clock. Scientists have some ideas why.

The rotation of the Earth's inner core may be reversing, scientists have found in a study that sheds new light on geological processes occurring deep within our planet.

The planet’s rotation was completed 1.59 milliseconds short of a 24-hour day on June 29, breaking the record for the world’s shortest day in modern history.

Planet Earth will spin a little faster on three separate days this summer, starting on July 9. This will technically result ...

While the Earth’s rotation changes over cosmic timescales, it also fluctuates on daily ones. We all know that a day lasts 24 hours, or 86,400 seconds, but that’s not perfectly accurate.
