This July 22, Earth will experience its second-shortest day ever, with a rotation 1.34 milliseconds faster than normal. Discover how lunar gravity affects our planet's spin and what it means for timekeeping!
This summer, Earth is spinning faster, resulting in shorter days. Scientists are concerned about the implications for timekeeping and technology, with a potential 'negative leap second' on the horizon.
On July 9, 2025, Earth recorded its shortest day ever, spinning faster than usual. This phenomenon is linked to the moon's gravitational pull. Discover what this means for our timekeeping and future leaps!
In the coming weeks, Earth's rotation is set to quicken, causing days to be unusually short! Discover how the moon's position is influencing this change and what it means for us.
Astronomers reveal surprising new findings about the potential collision between the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, reducing the likelihood of a galactic clash over the next billion years.
