As Moon Drifts After 200 Million Years A Day Will BCOME 25 Hours Long

Earth Moon Distance: All the research has stated that the distance between the earth and the moon is increasing. In the year 2022, researchers estimated that the distance between Moon and Earth would have been 60 thousand kilometers less than today. The effect of Moon going away from the earth is also affecting our planet. This effect is falling on the rotational speed of the earth. A new research states that due to the increasing distance between the Earth and the Moon, one day can be 25 hours on our planet. Reports According to, scientists have speculated that it took 18 hours for the Earth to complete a circle on its axis 1.4 billion years ago, that is, there was a day and night in 18 hours. The rotation speed of the earth is continuously decreasing due to the moon moving away from the earth. This has been revealed in the study of Visconsin-Madison University. Researchers studied a rock of 9 million years old.

The current distance of Moon and Earth is 3 lakh 84 thousand 400 kilometers. The moon takes 27.3 days to apply a complete circle around the Earth. The study states that the Moon is moving away from a speed of 3.82 cm every year. Due to this, after 20 million years, 25 hours can be on Earth.

In another research, scientists have also said that the distance between the earth and the moon today was 384,400 km, it was 321,800 km two and a half billion years ago and the length of the day was 16.9 hours instead of 24 hours. Researchers say that billions of years ago, the Moon was in reality close to our planet and now it is slowly getting away. These research can help scientists understand the Earth-Moon System.
