       @TeaKayB "as the Moon speeds up and its orbital distance is increased, the Earth's rotation slows down a little: our day is becoming shorter by about two milliseconds every hundred years."Is this correct? I thought that as the rotation of the Earth slows down, the day would get longer, not shorter.
