Would you believe our days are shorter now because of the recent Indonesian earthquake that also caused the devastating tsunamis?
Scientists from NASA have determined that we now have 2.68 microseconds less everyday to do our stuff. As if our days aren't short enough already LoL
The earthquake also caused our dear Earth to become slightly more compact. Now we have even less space to live on Earth. Overpopulation anyone?
Another effect is that the Earth's oblateness (flattening on the top and bulging at the equator) has been affected. So... does this mean that earth is now more svelte and slim? Kind of sounds like Mother Earth is on a diet and fitness regimen : )
