Earth's Core Just Changed Direction - And We Almost Missed It

Earth spins at nearly 1,000 miles per hour at the equator, yet scientists have discovered that our planet's rotation has not remained constant throughout its history. New research has helped explain why Earth's spin gradually slowed over billions of years, revealing a surprising connection between the Moon, ocean tides, and the transfer of energy across the planet. As tidal forces constantly pull on Earth's oceans, a small amount of rotational energy is lost, causing the length of a day to increase ever so slightly over time. Hundreds of millions of years ago, a day on Earth lasted far fewer hours than it does today, and the same process continues to influence our planet's rotation even now. Join us as we explore the forces that slowed Earth's spin, how scientists uncovered this planetary mystery, and what it reveals about the long-term evolution of our world.
