Scientists expect a specific day in July to be the shortest day of 2025 so far, running just over a millisecond faster than ...

Scientists say the Earth's axis tilt has changed due to melting ice caps over the last few decades.

Earth's Axis Tilted Noticeably Over Two Decades: Here's Why Humans pump a huge amount of groundwater, and it's got us akilter.

(CNN) — Humans’ unquenchable thirst for groundwater has sucked so much liquid from subsurface reserves that it’s affecting Earth’s tilt, according to a new study.

Earth completed its normal 24-hour rotation 1.59 milliseconds fast on June 29, breaking the record for the shortest day in modern history.

Scientists have discovered that the Earth's axis tilted by 31.5 inches between 1993 and 2010 - and one of the reasons is the pumping of groundwater for irrigation and human use ...

The axis of Planet Earth has tilted by 31.5 inches (nearly 80cm) and humans are to blame for this, according to a new study.

Humans have changed the Earth’s axis — and our GPS and satellite navigation systems need it to work This has "very important practical implications" an author of a new study on groundwater ...
