Earth’s Days Are Getting Shorter?!

Did you know Earth just had its shortest day ever and could break that record again soon? Our planet is spinning faster than it has since the 1970s, shaving off tiny fractions of a second from each day. Scientists are baffled—some blame shifting glaciers, others the wobbly poles, and even the Moon’s distance! The wildest part? We might need to start subtracting seconds from our clocks instead of adding them. Time is literally flying! #EarthScience #ShortestDay #MindBlown #Science
