Earth’s diameter 7,926 miles. Axis shift 10 inches. We’ll be okay. It’s not gonna snow at the equator.
The Earths axis is shifting very slowly all the time By centimeters and millimeters. It takes several weeks of measurement taking to determine precisely how those shifts are far for the time several weeks ago.
This is scientist looking for their 15 minutes of fame or journalist who are looking for a headline...wait a few weeks for the real data and then we will know. Right now this is just hype.
The real situation is on the ground in Japan. Prayers up.
It makes no sense at all to say an axis shifted in inches. What is the shift in arcseconds?
“It’s not gonna snow at the equator.”
Well, there goes by snowboarding vacation to the Virgin Islands. I guess I’ll just have to go to Vail afterall.
The fact that we think we can measure 10 inches of shift in the earth’s axis sounds rediculous.
What’s our point of reference? Pluto?
