If you feel like you never have enough hours in the day to do everything you want to do, don't worry. You just have to wait ...
Earth’s rotation is slowly slowing, scientists say, meaning days are getting longer, though the change takes millions of ...
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 ...
Our 24-hour day measures Earth’s rotation relative to the Sun, known as a solar day. This is slightly longer than Earth’s ...
Does it feel like there's not enough time in the day for everything? Well, that could be because some upcoming days are actually getting shorter. In fact, today might just be the shortest day you'll ...
(CNN) — One day in the next couple of years, everyone in the world will lose a second of their time. Exactly when that will happen is being influenced by humans, according to a new study, as melting ...
The speed of Earth's rotation is about 1,000 miles per hour relative to its axis. Your exact speed of rotation due to Earth's spin depends on your latitude. The farther you are from the equator, the ...

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) may lose a second for the first time. How much can change in a second? The impact of climate change has been felt across the globe in rising temperatures and rising ...
Physicists at NASA and Princeton generate electricity from the Earth's rotation: could wind energy be our energy source of the future?
Scientists anticipate that a “negative leap second” might soon be required, shortening our days by a second, due to polar ice melting. Historically, Earth has seen its rotation decelerate due to tidal ...
