Shifts in Earth’s axis are measured indirectly through radio telescope observations of immobile objects in space — quasars — using them as fixed points of reference.

The Earth is predicted to increase its rotation speed in July and August, once again bucking the trend of a slower rotation ...

The axis tilts, and thus the pole shift, ... Earth's axis of rotation isn't straight up and down like the axes of Mercury or Jupiter, but tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees.

Melting ice is slowing Earth's spin and causing changes to its axis, new studies find. The shifts are causing feedback beneath the surface, impacting the planet's molten core.

What Is Earth’s Tilt? It's a well-known fact that Earth’s axis is tilted at an angle of about 23.5 degrees, which is a reason why we get to experience all the seasons. This tilt determines how ...

Groundwater pumping has shifted Earth's axis by 31.5 inches in just two decades, study finds This story is from November 25, 2024 TOI Science Desk / TIMESOFINDIA.COM / Nov 25, 2024, 11:38 IST ...

In less than 20 years, human activities—especially the pumping of groundwater—have caused the Earth’s axis to shift by about 31.5 inches (or 80 centimeters), according to a new study. This ...

Human activity shifted Earth's axis by 80 centimeters, study finds Water extraction caused an average annual drift of Earth's rotational pole by 4.63 cm, totaling 80 cm in less than two decades.

Global warming shifts spin axis of Earth It's hard to believe that humans could tip the Earth off its axis -- even a tiny bit. But we have, and Dr Karl explains how.
