The question as to whether the earth's axis of rotation could ever have changed to such an extent as to have affected the climate of the poles, is at present exciting a good deal of attention.

Researchers studying decades of earthquake data say they have found the first evidence that, in addition to spinning backward ...

Various incredible natural phenomena exist across Earth's surface. Rare and unexpected natural wonders occasionally become ...

The scientists ascertained the Earth “wobbled” as it rotated. They called the wobble, “Chandler’s Wobble.” If my memory serves me correctly, I believe the wobble apex (the center point on the upper ...

A new study in Nature Geoscience reveals insights about the Earth’s core. While we often learn about the inner and outer ...

Professor John Chiang of UC Berkeley explains the impact of Earth's axial tilt and orbital eccentricity on global climate. He ...

Earth's tilt shift alters its rotation, subtly adjusting the axis alignment. Redistribution of mass impacts angular momentum, causing measurable deviations. Though these shifts are small ...

Last week China announced that it is building the world's largest dam in Tibet - even larger than the Three Gorges Dam, which according to NASA, has slowed the Earth's rotation by 0.06 seconds.

The above image shows a 20-meter-long chunk of frozen carbon dioxide falling off a cliff. Rising temperatures during the ...

The Moon, long shrouded in mystery, has recently revealed some surprising truths about the way time behaves in its unique ...

The Three Gorges Dam in China is often praised as a marvel of modern engineering, but according to NASA, this colossal ...

Scientists of course cannot cut into Earth and directly observe its insides. Instead, their knowledge is inferred from the ...
