It is essentially impossible to functionally change the passing of time on Earth; despite this, NASA has announced that a man-made dam in China has done exactly that ...

China's Three Gorges Dam has effectively changed Earth's axis by nearly an inch since it was built nearly 18 years ago, ...

Would you guess that the Earth is spinning at 1,000 mph around its axis and at the same time hurtling through space on its ...

Abstract: Robot localization is a fundamental task in achieving true autonomy. Recently, many graph-based navigators have been proposed that combine an inertial measurement unit (IMU) with an ...

A study of Saturn's atmospheric structure using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed complex and mysterious features unseen before on any planet in our Solar System.

As early as 2024, scientists from the US and China discovered that the Earth’s core had slowed down and even stopped moving in relation to the Earth’s crust. But until now, the general public—that’s ...

19th-century mathematics is giving way to 3D, high-resolution, real-topography models that could provide a more precise path of totality for the next total solar eclipse. Solar eclipse maps show crisp ...

Abstract: Passive resonant laser gyroscopes (PRGs) have ultra-low shot noise limits and a great potential in Earth rotation detection. Backscattering causes lock-in effect as well as a Sagnac ...

Ever since its formation around 4.5 billion years ago, Earth's rotation has been gradually slowing down, and its days have gotten progressively longer as a result. While Earth's slowdown is not ...
