The Devil Wears Prada - Celestial Mechanics lyrics


ad
For the first time in three years
Official clocks will pause for the Earth's rotation
To realign with atomic time
Fluctuation is due to Earth's interaction with the Moon
Primarily tidal acceleration
This process, this effect of tidal force
Slows our planet's rotation
Angular momentum
In direct correspondence with Earth's axial tilt is dampened
An existing kinetic energy within orbit is lessened
All the same, the reduction is notably fractional
Specifically, days on Earth grow 1.4 milliseconds longer
Every one hundred years
To put that in a different perspective
It won't be for another 100,000 years until each day is about
One and a half seconds longer than as they exist today
