MOON'S DRIFT MAKING DAYS LONGER, STUDY SAYS. - Free Online Library: "A tidalite sediment laid down 900 million years ago in what is now Utah shows that the Earth's rotation The Earth's rotation is the rotation of the solid earth around its own axis, which is called Earth's axis or rotation axis. The earth rotates towards the east, which can be observed by orientation with a magnetic compass at sunrise.

The moon, now 240,000 miles away, was then closer to the Earth, he said, and the lunar month was only 25 days, compared to the present 29.5 days. Sonett said the moon is receding from the Earth at the rate of about 1-1/2 inches a year.

This affects the lunar month, which is the time it takes the moon to orbit the Earth and the period from one full moon to the next. As the moon's orbit grows, the lunar month lengthens."

So the supermoon of yesterday was the actual moon about [63800km (average distance) -57257km (perigee)=6543km and 6543km/3.82cm=] 171282720 years ago?^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]}
