OK we know 65 million years ago the Earth's spin made the day have 30
minutes longer than today's. At this spacetime with the Moon and Sun pulling on the Earth's waters,and making for slower spin,can this add to its heat? In 2 billion years what will be Earth's rate of spin? What if it only spun once around in a month? Kind of scarey Bert |

Kind of scarey Bert It is estimated that the ultimate length of both the day and the month will be 50 of our current days. But it is likely that the Earth will be roasted by a red giant Sun before that happens. Double-A |

Hmm... and i've always thought that in about 5 billion years the inner planets would be vaporized and engulfed by our red-giant wannabee Sun. Where did you read that the Earth won't roast but would enjoy an increased distance, Mark? happy days and... starry starry nights! -- Indelibly yours, Paine http://www.painellsworth.net http://www.savethechildren.org |

I didn't read it anywhere, I just know it's true, because as the Sun loses mass, there will be less force tugging on the Earth, and it will move further away. happy days and... starry starry nights! -- Indelibly yours, Paine http://www.painellsworth.net http://www.savethechildren.org |

I didn't read it anywhere, I just know it's true, because as the Sun loses mass, there will be less force tugging on the Earth, and it will move further away. Also, the Sun will have its mass more spread out, and this too will cause the Earth to attempt to orbit the Sun in a more "spead out" fashion. |

Double-A Days were 30 minutes shorter.(right) That was in the
spacetime of dinosaurs. I wonder how fast theEarth was spinning when it was in a liquid state,say 3.5 billion years ago? Bert |
