Earth is begining to spin faster...and guess what some scientists believe is the reason.

When dinosaurs still roamed the planet 70 million years ago, a single day on Earth lasted about 23 1/2 hours, according to a 2020 study published in Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology.

Since 1820, scientists documented Earth's rotation slowing down, according to NASA. In the past few years, it began speeding up, McCarthy said.

Why is the speed increasing?
Researchers do not have a definitive answer on how or why Earth is turning slightly faster, but it may be due to glacial isostatic adjustment, or the movement of land due to melting glaciers, McCarthy said.

1. Or, perhaps when the moon/or the planetary body that slammed into the Earth way back then,

imparted this movement into the Earth when it slammed into the Earth?

2. I knew it! I can feel it, I tell you!

And I thought it might just be because I'm getting older.

Hmmmmm ..... let's see ..... something warmer is moving faster.

Thank you for this. It is much appreciated.

6. That can explain why I feel time

is passing by very quickly


LOL i'm trying to make a joke

9. Large subduction zone quakes can alter it as well.

NASA/JPL noticed it after the 2004 Andaman quake.
