Earth’s rotation is slowly slowing, scientists say, meaning days are getting longer, though the change takes millions of ...

The rotation is slowing down due to tidal friction from the Moon, lengthening the day by approximately 1.7 milliseconds per ...

The remnants of a star that met a tragic end, consumed by a supermassive black hole, have revealed the rotational speed of this cosmic predator. Supermassive black holes are born from successive ...

Planet Earth will spin a little faster on three separate days this summer, starting today. This will technically result in shorter days, but the change will be so minuscule you won’t even notice.

Planet Earth is spinning a little faster today — resulting in one of the shortest days of the year. But the change will be so minuscule you won’t even notice. We’re talking even less time than the ...

Take a look out there at the Universe, and while the stars might give off the light that you'll first notice, a deeper look shows that there's much more out there. The brightest, most massive stars, ...

DETROIT — The days are indeed getting shorter. Earth had its shortest day ever recorded on June 29, with the day ending 1.59 milliseconds sooner than usual, according to the National Physical ...

New research has revealed the importance of a circadian body clock that matches the rotational speed of the Earth. New research has revealed the importance of a circadian body clock that matches the ...

Researchers have clarified the mechanisms by which energy loss is locally maximized at a certain rotational speed in ...

Planet Earth will spin a little faster on three separate days this summer, starting on July 9. This will technically result in shorter days, but the change will be so minuscule you won’t even notice.
