EARTH’S AXIS: Which way will the planet fall?

| February 7, 2025 1:00 AM

The Earth’s axis tilt, or obliquity, causes the seasons, which affect the weather. The phenomena he mentioned, coronal mass ejections (solar flares), gravity (moon), and plate tectonics (magma) are just a few elements that interact in our convoluted weather and climate. I would digress about my background, but words literally count. My theory is related to energy, gravity, magnetism and the big picture.

Black holes were barely more than a theory, and very little has been observed since my childhood. It’s crazy that things go into a black hole, but they never come out. We will eventually discover a pattern of these vacuum portals, whereupon we can debate whether it is Freya’s Shark, a Hoover, or a Dyson, and where she’s dumping the “detritus particulitous.” No joke, look at the bigger picture. “Last Friday night, I kinda remember … It was about 4.5 billion years ago, and it was Odin’s turn to break. He smacked the rack with so much backspin that Venus rotates in the opposite direction, Uranus rotates on its side, and Earth is about done spinning, as evidenced by the wobble.” Mr. Hillman seems concerned about the wobble. I am also concerned about the tilt, wobble, topple. Just like a top that quits spinning, it wobbles and then topples over.   To compound Mr. Hillman’s question about the wobble and the tilt, which way will the planet fall when it finally quits spinning?
