Default Wobble ??????

Without "wobble" the earth might be just another dead planet. Does the
moon help create wobble? Does the moon help the earth spin with less
wobble? Does wobble help create more ice at the poles? Has the earth's
bobble changed due to the moon's orbit being so large at this spacetime?
I like wobble Bert


That moon represents 2e20 N/sec worth of its orbital tidal interaction
with Earth.

Do the hourly and then further ponder as to the 24 hour and yearly
amounts of that force, then try to figure out exactly where all of
that force has been going and/or affecting our 98.5% fluid Earth.

How much of that tidal force creates wobble (inside and out), and then
how much of that interactive wobble becomes geothermal heat via
internal plus that of surface and atmospheric friction.
