Description

1: Normal Rotation (24 Hours)Sped up to 22 Minutes. 2: The Moon Was 64,019 Km Away(19 Hours)Sped up to 0.8 Seconds. 3: The Moon Is 420 Km Away!(12 Hours)Sped up to 1 Millisecond. 4: EARTH WITHOUT THE MOON!!!(6 Hours)Sped up to 1 Microsecond. NOTE: Earth seems like it rotates 24 hours a day, but something else came into play. Solar days are where 24 hours kicks in. It isn't really how long it takes for Earth to rotate. Sidereal days are the actual length of day it takes for earth to rotate successfully. Solar days count too. NOTE: 1 Solar Day on Earth = 24 Hours 1 Sidereal Day On Earth = 23 Hours, 56 Minutes, 4 Seconds
