Our planet may have had a recent change of heart. Earth’s inner core may have temporarily stopped rotating relative to the mantle and surface, researchers report in the January 23 Nature Geoscience.
Scientists have warned that climate change is now slowing Earth's rotation at a rate unlike anything seen in the past 3.6 million years.
Days are getting longer as a result of climate change, as warmer temperatures lead to a slowing of Earth’s rotation at a rate scientists say has not been seen for at least 3.6 million years. New ...

Earth's days are getting longer at unprecedented rate not seen in 3.6 million years – here's why
Earth's spin is slowing down and our days are getting ever-so-slightly longer. While the planet's rotation often speeds up and slows down over time, new research suggests the current increase in day ...
Climate change is lengthening our days because rising sea levels slow Earth's rotation. Researchers from the University of Vienna and ETH Zurich now show that the current increase in day length — 1.33 ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - Dating back to Ancient Greece, we’ve known Earth’s rotation takes about 24 hours to complete. Since then, we’ve updated our calculations... and it turns out Earth’s spin rate ...
Earth, our home planet, is a world unlike any other. The third planet from the sun, Earth is the only place in the known universe confirmed to host life. With a radius of 3,959 miles, Earth is the ...
