continents seem to have moved too… weird.
Also looks much more sickly (yes, its because they pumped up the brightness lol)
No wonder it feels more crowded
This helps explain why days seem shorter as we age, the Earth is spinning faster due to the conservation of angular momentum. The days are literally shorter.
Shhh! Don’t let Big Clock know that we are on to them.
fun fact, days have actually been getting longer pretty much since formation of earth (well moon to be correct). reason iirc is that moon is slowly moving away from earth, and this results in some dynamics changing and as a result earth spins slower. like billions of years ago, it was closer to 23 hours.
ps - very rusty memory right now, should have skipped writing instead of half borked fact
You’re correct. There are more factors involved too, including climate change, since more ice melting means more water as well, moving the mass away from poles to the center to also be affected by the mind pull too.
All the factors end up changing things by about a millisecond per century. The effect is akin to a spinning figure skater having their arms up over their head vs directly out from their body.
Good to know it’s still a flat disc
And gravity!!
Amazing how the countries side over it?
Plus, that 2d image makes it look flat, like a penny.
“Ha! I knew the Earth was flat!”
Knowledge is power!
A lot less green, as well.
It’s cold out there in space.
Don’t they know about shrinkage?
I’ll need Jerry Smith’s opinion on this one
We are not a celestial dwarf. Earth is a planet.
happy cake day!
Where did Africa go?? 😧
Well that’s what happens when you leave it out in the sun
No I think it’s because it’s cold in space
Nuh uh
There was shrinkage!
It’s because we’re looking at a different side of the planet in the second photo.
Yet but still if you superimpose the second image over the first you’ll see the whole planet had gotten smaller.
In this age of misinformation I realize I can no longer determine if something is a joke.
I am joking.
Thank you. I thought you were but I genuinely had to correct myself and think ‘But what if they’re not joking?’.
I’m tired.
No, I get that. That’s only because we’re looking at a different side. It’s the same size on the other
The maps were correct, New Zealand doesn’t exist.
Completely different landmasses as well!
Kubrick, we’re onto you
That’s because the internet made the world smaller.
