Earth rotation question
I am writing an "end-of-the-world" type novel which the earth's rotation
will change, causing great upheaval on the earth and making the days shorter. My question is what could cause such a catastrophe? Could this be caused by: 1. a super-giant solar flare 2. a close fly-by by a gigantic mass (one gigantic mass or thousands of smaller objects) 3. major impact on the earth by a comet or asteroid (I know, this one has been done to death) Any other suggestions? All responses will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Mike |
