What If the Earth's Rotation Suddenly Reversed? A Scientific Look

What If the Earth’s Rotation Suddenly Reversed? A Scientific Look

Andrew Alpin

You probably never think much about the fact that you’re standing on a massive spinning ball hurtling through space. Our planet rotates steadily from west to east, completing a full turn roughly every 24 hours at speeds approaching over 1,600 kilometers per hour at the equator. It’s been doing this for billions of years. The ...
