• more things to worry about - the Earth doesn't spin regularly

    From Popping Mad@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 8 11:21:19 2025
    I was looking up a different phenomena that I hear on a show which I
    never heard of before, that in the deep history of the earth, before the Cambian period, the earth physically flipped north/south


    I didn't find anything but I did find about a mear 88 million years ago
    the planet rotated in a non-normative way nearly 12 degrees back for
    forth... like if you push a top?

    geology, not paleontology ?

    The gradual change of the rotation of Earth and the revolution of Moon
    may have some consequences to geology and paleontology but nothing
    important.
