Electricity can be generated from the energy of Earth rotating through its own magnetic field — according to a provocative ..

Scientists at the National Physical Laboratory in England recorded the shortest day ever on June 29 and another shortened day on July 26, according to Popular Mechanics, a science and technology ...

But have you ever wondered that some man-made objects can alter or affect our planet Earth's spinning? Well, read this ...

Intriguingly, assuming that the system would work and would be scaled up to meet the demands of the entire planet, the Earth's rotational spin would only slow by seven milliseconds over the next ...

Although we can't feel Earth spinning, the daily sunrise and sunset are reminders that our planet is in constant motion. But do we know which way Earth is spinning? And is it the same direction as ...

followed by tsunamis generated by the displacement of oceans previously held in check by the planet's spin. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson starkly predicts that a momentary stop in Earth's ...

This may seem like a ridiculous scenario at first. But, scientists have actually run simulations for a backwards-spinning Earth, because it happens to be a great way to test how well we can model ...

Our planet's spinning motion causes the moving liquid metal to spiral, in a way similar to how it affects weather systems on the Earth's surface. These spiraling eddies allow separate magnetic ...

Mega-buildings and dams like China’s Three Gorges Dam are subtly shifting Earth’s rotation. With its 40 billion cubic meters of water, the dam affects our planet’s spin, adding 0.06 ...
