The axis of the earth is shifting. Has the tilt of the Earth's axis changed? In ancient times, they knew about the tilt of the earth's axis
People who have lived in one place for a long time, dozens of years, began to notice that the Sun is now setting and rising in a completely different place than it was rising and setting 20 or 40 years ago. A natural question arises - why?
Let's turn to the scientific information regarding the angle of inclination of the Earth's axis of rotation:
The angle of inclination of the Earth's axis with respect to the plane of the ecliptic is 23.5 degrees. This was the reason for the change of seasons on Earth, as a result of rotation around the Sun.
Effects of the Earth's tilt and movement around the Sun
Imagine that the Sun is at the center of a rotating record. All the planets, including the Earth, revolve around the Sun like the tracks of a gramophone record. Now imagine that each planet is a top, the top and bottom points of which coincide with the angle of rotation of the Earth around the Sun. By measuring the angle of inclination between the poles and the orbit in which the Earth moves around the Sun, you will get just the same 23.5 degrees.
Graphical depiction of the tilt of the Earth
At one point in the Earth's orbit, the North Pole of the Earth faces the Sun. At this time, summer begins in the northern hemisphere. After 6 months, when the Earth is on the opposite side of its orbit, the North Pole is directed away from the Sun, and winter sets in, and in the southern hemisphere, on the contrary, summer sets in.
With a frequency of 41 thousand years, the angle of inclination earth's axis varies from 22.1 to 24.5 degrees. The direction of the earth's axis also changes with a period of 26 thousand years. During this cycle, the poles change places every 13 thousand years.
All planets solar system have a certain angle of inclination of the axis. Mars has a tilt angle very similar to that of the Earth, at 25.2 degrees, while Uranus, on the contrary, is 97.8 degrees.
Great, science describes everything in detail to us, but these data do not change for decades, and the tilt of the Earth's axis is changing. The sun rises and sets in a completely different place, and in addition, global climate change may not be associated with the notorious human impact on nature, but with a change in the tilt of the Earth, as a result of which the climate has changed, moreover, all natural anomalies point precisely to this factor.
Why is this happening? There is only one answer - some huge cosmic body entered the solar system and has a powerful gravitational effect on our planet, it is so strong that it has already changed the axis of rotation of the Earth.
Scientists cannot but know, cannot but record such changes in the tilt of the earth's axis, but for some reason they are in no hurry to change the information, correct the data on the angle of inclination, and even more so they are in no hurry to explain why all this is happening.
Changes are noticed by many people who write about it, but science is silent. A popular U.S. informal radio host, Hal Turner, recently brought up the subject on his show and detailed his observations.
Here is what he reported:
"The sun sets much further north than it used to. I live at North Bergen, NJ 07047. My house is on the west slope, 212 feet above sea level. I moved here in 1991, I live on the third floor, with a balcony facing west For many years I enjoyed beautiful sunsets from this balcony, and at the beginning of the summer of 2017, I unexpectedly noticed that the Sun was setting in a completely different place than before.
It used to set in the west, but now it sets in the northwest. Moreover, it has shifted so much that if earlier I watched the sunset looking straight ahead, now, in order to see the sunset, I have to turn my head to the right.
I am not a scientist or an academician, but I have been living here for 26 years and I see that the Sun does not set at all where it used to be. The only reasonable explanation for this fact is that the Earth has changed the angle of its axis. Why is NASA praying, why do all the scientists of the world do not notice or do not want to notice this?
Influence of Planet X (Nibiru)?
According to ancient Sumerian texts and recent research by modern scientists, the appearance of Planet X in the solar system will change the tilt of the Earth's axis, which will cause global climate change, and as this planet approaches the Earth, this will lead to large-scale natural disasters- tsunami and others natural phenomena most likely to destroy life on our planet.
Judging by the fact that billionaires, governments and other rulers of the world are preparing safe havens for themselves, creating "arks" of seed storage and cultural heritage human civilization, they know about the approaching global catastrophe
Perhaps that is why the space programs of NASA, Elon Musk (Space X) and Jeff Bezos (Blue Origin) began to actively develop, the purpose of which is to resettle the chosen ones to other planets and create colonies there.
Nibiru, also known as planet X, is considered to be a planet whose orbit at perihelion crosses the solar system between Mars and Jupiter once every 3600-4000 years. The Sumerians left a description of this planet, which says that it is inhabited by highly developed intelligent beings - the Anunnaki.
Not so long ago, just a few years ago, scientists called information about planet X a myth and pseudoscience, and then these same people who laughed at Nibiru themselves announced the discovery of Planet X. Maybe it's time to openly tell people about the real reasons global change climate and about planet X, also tell. Maybe the time has come?

Tilt of the Earth's axis of rotation: description of the ratio of the planet and the orbital plane of the solar system with a photo. Influence on seasons, change of day and night, climate and weather.
Have you ever wondered why the Earth has an axial tilt? Why isn't the planet just set perpendicular to the orbital plane? Researchers have been racking their brains for a long time to find the answer. The main argument is that the tilt of the axis of rotation is based on the history of the formation of the entire solar system. We still don't have a clear vision, but we have a rough model.
The birth of the Sun formed a new source of gravity. Tidal forces led to a breakdown in stability and the nebula began to fall, creating a disk, and then planets. They collided to merge into larger objects. Most likely, there was a collision between the Earth and another object, and we leaned.
However, this is not a punishment, but a blessing. This is the ideal angle of inclination of the axial rotation, allowing the appearance of seasons that are stably fixed on each hemisphere. Thanks to this, we have a favorable climate and a harmonious temperature distribution. With perpendicularity, one side would be constantly fried, and the ice age reigned on the second.
What causes Earth's climate change?
Astronomer Milyutin Milankovich (1879-1958) studied the change in the Earth's orbit around the Sun and the tilt of our planet's axis. He suggested that cyclical changes between them are the cause of long-term climate change.
Climate change is a complex process, influenced by many factors. The main one is the relationship between the Earth and the Sun.
Milanković studied three factors:
Change in the tilt of the earth's axis;
Deviations in the shape of the Earth's orbit around the Sun;
The precession of the change in the position of the inclination of the axis with respect to the orbit..

Tilt of the earth's axis
If there were no axial tilt, then we would have no seasons, and day and night would be the same throughout the year. The amount of solar energy reaching a certain point on Earth would be constant. Now the axis of the planet is at an angle of 23.5 °. In the summer (since June) in the Northern Hemisphere, it turns out that the northern latitudes receive more light than the southern ones. The days are getting longer and the position of the sun is higher. At the same time, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere. The days are shorter and the sun is lower.
FROM six months later, the Earth moves in its orbit to the opposite side of the Sun. The slope stays the same. Now it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere, the days are longer and there's more light. It's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
Milankovitch suggested that the tilt of the earth's axis is not always 23.5°. There are fluctuations from time to time. He calculated that the changes lie in the range from 22.1° to 24.5°, repeating this with a period of 41,000 years. When the slope is smaller, the temperature is lower than usual in summer and higher in winter. As the slope increases, more extreme climatic conditions are observed.
How does all this affect the climate? Even with increasing temperatures in winter, it is still cold enough for snow in areas far from the equator. If summers are cold, then it is possible that snow in high latitudes will also melt more slowly in winter. Year after year it will stratify, forming a glacier.
Compared to water and land, snow reflects more solar energy into space, causing additional cooling. From this point of view, there is a mechanism of positive feedback. Due to the decrease in temperature, snow accumulates additionally and glaciers increase. The reflection increases over time, and the temperature decreases, and so on. Perhaps this is how the ice ages began.
The shape of the Earth's orbit around the Sun
The second factor studied by Milankovitch is the shape of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. The orbit is not perfectly round. AT certain time year, the Earth is closer to the Sun than usual. The Earth receives much more energy from the Sun, being as close as possible to the star (at the perihelion point), in comparison with the maximum distance (the aphelion point).
The shape of the earth's orbit changes cyclically with a period of 90,000 and 100,000 years. Sometimes the shape becomes more elongated (elliptical) than it is now, so the difference in the amount of solar energy received at perihelion and aphelion will be large.
Perihelion is now observed in January, aphelion in July. This change makes the climate of the Northern Hemisphere milder, bringing additional warmth in winter. In the Southern Hemisphere, the climate is more severe than it would be if the Earth's orbit around the Sun were circular.
Precession
There is another difficulty. The orientation of the earth's axis changes over time. Like a top, the axis moves in a circle. Such a movement is called precessional. The cycle of such a movement is 22,000 years. This causes a gradual change of seasons. Eleven thousand years ago, the Northern Hemisphere was tilted closer to the sun in December than in June. Winter and summer changed places. After 11,000 years, everything has changed again.
All three factors: axial tilt, orbital shape, and precession change the planet's climate. Since this happens on different time scales, the interaction of these factors is complex. Sometimes they enhance the effect of each other, sometimes they weaken. For example, 11,000 years ago, the precession caused the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere in December, the effect of increasing solar radiation at perihelion in January and decreasing at aphelion in July will increase the interseasonal difference in the Northern Hemisphere, instead of softening as we are now familiar with. Not everything is as simple as it seems, since the dates of perihelion and aphelion also shift.
Other factors affecting climate
In addition to the shifting effect of the Earth's motion, are there other factors influencing climate?
If you carefully consider all the objects of the solar system, then without a doubt we can say that the Earth was lucky. During the formation of the planets, it was she who was destined to be in the right place, where all the factors for the development of life are most harmoniously combined. It is a paradox, but even with the development of progress in the field of space exploration and information accessibility, not all people have an idea about the cosmic parameters of the Earth, and it is they who should be thanked not only to man, but to all nature for the opportunities that it provides for development life cycle. It's time to fill this gap.
Special thanks to orbit, atmosphere and axial tilt
Earth is the third planet farthest from the main star. The average distance to the Sun is about 149.5 million km, it has become optimal for it in terms of temperature ratio - not too hot in the daytime and summer, and moderately cold at night and in winter.
The Earth's orbit deserves respect for its location, not only because of the climate, but also because being in this part of the solar system created opportunities for the formation of an atmosphere conducive to the emergence of life, which is based on nitrogen and oxygen.
Pay attention to the angle of inclination of the earth's axis to the plane of the orbit. It is 23 degrees, thanks to it there are no completely shaded areas on the planet, each of them alternately receives the right amount of light and heat when the seasons change.
The air on Earth is not only oxygen...
Since childhood, people have been aware of the importance of oxygen. However, other components are rarely remembered.
First of all, they include nitrogen - this gas is even more than the first one in the atmosphere in terms of volume and its main task is to neutralize the negative properties of oxygen. Sounds weird? In fact, there is nothing surprising, because if you remember chemistry, it is known that O 2 gas has the ability to create oxidative reactions, in its pure form it can even burn the respiratory tract! Therefore, nitrogen is an airbag for our mucous membranes of the nose and lungs.
And of course, some carbon dioxide is present, just a few hundredths of a percent. Why so little, if so many people on the planet exhale it every second? Everything is very simple: from a person, carbon dioxide is transferred to plants, which, when exhaled, return oxygen to the atmosphere. Here is such a cycle!
The angle of the earth's axis and its gifts
As noted above, it allows any point on the planet to be charged with solar energy. But not only in this his merits. The tilted axis makes it possible to observe phenomena such as seasons, which are the result of the fact that at each latitude the sun's rays are directed at different angles, changing them over the course of 365 days, as a result of which it becomes warmer and colder. And at the poles, you can become a witness that for more than 180 days the sun does not set from the sky, and the other 180 days it does not rise, because it illuminates the opposite pole. Thus, during the entire orbital cycle, the two hemispheres heat up and cool down in turn. When it is summer on one of them, winter cold is on the other at the same time; with autumn and spring everything is the same. Each season changes the length of day and night.
If the tilt of the earth's axis were zero, then the picture would be more faded: day and night would steadily last 12 hours, and the season and temperature would be the same, depending on latitude. The equator would be an oasis of summer, autumn would not leave the middle latitudes, and at the poles there would be neither day nor night, but only eternal morning.
Special differences from neighboring planets of the Terrestrial group
1. Our planet is the largest in size among them. Venus, and especially Mars and Mercury, are significantly inferior to it in size.
2. Only on Earth is oxygen present in sufficient quantity and in the correct ratio, which is important for the existence of life.
3. It has the strongest magnetic field, which protects against radiation and the largest natural satellite - the Moon.
4. The only one of the planets of the Earth group has a huge supply of water.
5. The distance to the Sun - about one and a half hundred million kilometers - turned out to be happy for her.
Conclusion
Earth can rightly be called Paradise! Nowhere in the nearest space district there are similar favorable conditions. And for this we need to thank the cosmos, which created a comfortable angle of inclination of the earth's axis and favorable orbital parameters. No neighboring planet has a moon like the moon, water, oxygen and life, which is beautiful anyway. And people only need to love and protect it. Our planet deserves it.
After a powerful earthquake (8.8 magnitude) that happened on February 27 in Chile, there were reports in the press that such strong shocks deflected the Earth's axis of rotation in a few minutes. But scholars are divided on this point. The Russian Institute of Radio Navigation and Time (RIRIV) told the correspondent of Pravda.Ru more about the axis shift.
Indeed, the recent earthquake in Chile was very powerful - it had a magnitude of 8.8! Only the fact that its epicenter was located far from the populated area and, moreover, quite deep, saved the world from many human casualties. A few days after the “violence of the elements,” some scientists made statements that such a strong shaking could change the tilt of the axis of our entire planet.
NASA geophysicist Richard Gross says: "If our calculations are correct, the Earth's own axis has shifted by about 8 centimeters." Here it is important to note that we are talking not about the tilt of the axis of rotation. "The own axis characterizes not how much the Earth is tilted," adds Gross, "but how it is balanced."
It can be explained like this. Our planet, as you know, is not an ideal sphere. Firstly, the globe is slightly flattened from the poles - its exact geometric model should be established by the GOCE mission sent into space a few years ago.
Secondly, the distribution of mass across the planet is not uniform, if only because part of its surface is oceans, and part is continents. In the northern hemisphere, there is noticeably more land than in the southern, and in the western - less than in the east. The proper axis of the Earth is the axis on which this inhomogeneous ball of the planet is "balanced", and the true axis of rotation oscillates around it.
This is what, it turns out, meant Richard Gross and his colleagues. The Chilean earthquake was so powerful that it caused the movement of colossal volumes of matter. This, in turn, changed the distribution of mass over the surface of the planet - not too noticeable, but quite enough for the "balancing axis" the globe deviated slightly.
However, this "shift" is not the first and not the last. The Earth's own axis is slightly shifted by itself, without any catastrophic events, as a result of slow geological processes. For example, the last ice age ended about 11 thousand years ago, and huge masses of ice disappeared from the surface of the continents and oceans. This not only led to a redistribution of mass, but also "unloaded" earth mantle, allowing it to take a shape close to spherical. This process has not yet been completed, and as a result of it, the axis on which our planet "balances" naturally moving about 10 centimeters per year.
But it is worth saying that if Gross's calculations are correct, then as a result of that earthquake, the axis shifted in just a few minutes by an amount almost the same as in a year. Impressive!
However, so far these are only theoretical assumptions and, as they say, speculation. Nobody carried out practical measurements, although the group of Richard Gross intends to deal with this issue in the near future. And the key measurement tool should be ... the global positioning system GPS.
GPS has been used by scientists for years to track seasonal and annual changes in the Earth's rotation. Thanks to these precise observations, it is shown that it is influenced by tides and winds, currents in the oceans and in the molten bowels of the planet.
These factors have a periodic effect, on different time scales - weekly, annual, and seasonal. For example, the average day in January is about 1 millisecond longer than in June.
Against this regular background, the Chilean quake should look like a sharp jump - and Richard Gross and colleagues are very hopeful to detect this jump in the monitoring system data. The scientist says: "We take the GPS data on the rotation of the Earth, subtract the characteristic periodic influences of tides, winds, currents, and so on, and then we have the data caused by the earthquake."
By the way, shortly after the catastrophe - along with the screaming headlines about the "shift of the earth's axis" - some media noted that the duration of the day as a result of this event was reduced by 1.26 microseconds. This is true, but this value does not represent anything dangerous or sensational. It is negligible compared to the normal variation in the length of the day caused by tides or ocean currents. Their influence is a thousand times stronger.
In a word, we have to wait for the final results of the work of the group of Richard Gross. The displacement of the Earth's own axis as a result of earthquakes has not yet been investigated by anyone. Gross himself first tried to do this in 2004 after a magnitude 9.1 earthquake in Sumatra, but then did not get any significant results.
According to the scientist, the location of the epicenter of the earthquake is to blame for this: despite its impressive power, its location near the equator did not allow it to exert sufficient influence on the rotation of the planet. But now the situation is different - most likely, the effect of the Chilean earthquake will be more noticeable.
Is it possible to make such calculations using radio navigation? Pravda.Ru was told at the Russian Institute of Radio Navigation and Time (RIRT):
“Of course, such studies using radio navigation are possible. Specifically, such calculations are not carried out in our institution, but some foreign colleagues have been practicing them for quite a long time.
The use of a GPS network throughout the planet allows monitoring of the Earth's rotation with high accuracy. Changes in characteristics also affect the phase of signals coming from satellites and the time it takes them to get from orbit.
Perhaps it is these data that will allow American specialists to achieve results in their research. That is, to make calculations, how balanced the earth's axis is, or whether its imbalance is noted.
