For the first time in three years, official clocks will pause
For the Earth's rotation to allign with atomic time
Fluctuation is due to the Earth's interaction with the moon
Primarily, tidal acceleration
This process, this effect of tidal force, slows our planet's rotation
Angular momentum, in direct correspondence
With the Eath's axial tilt, is dampened
An existing kinetic energy within orbit is lessened
All the same, the reduction is notably fractional
Specifically, days on Earth grow 1.4 milliseconds longer
Every one hundred years
To put that in a different perspective
It won't be for another 100,000 years until each day is about
One-and-a-half seconds longer than as they exist today
For the Earth's rotation to allign with atomic time
Fluctuation is due to the Earth's interaction with the moon
Primarily, tidal acceleration
This process, this effect of tidal force, slows our planet's rotation
Angular momentum, in direct correspondence
With the Eath's axial tilt, is dampened
An existing kinetic energy within orbit is lessened
All the same, the reduction is notably fractional
Specifically, days on Earth grow 1.4 milliseconds longer
Every one hundred years
To put that in a different perspective
It won't be for another 100,000 years until each day is about
One-and-a-half seconds longer than as they exist today
