Whatever it is, it is BIG news! Like the examples of 'climate change' in other planets, it means that the changes are on the level of the solar system and not just for our little planet!

But since the rotations (revolution and spin) of Venus is both related to Earth's rotation (commensurability), I wonder what kind of a subtle effect it can have here through spin-orbit interaction..
Maybe earth has slowed down an equal amount relative to its size in comparison. (I hope you know what I mean here.)
Question is: would that be due to the approach of a dark body grounding the system? Anybody know enough about electricity or electrogravitics or whatever might be involved, to offer an opinion or explanation?
mkrnhr said:We have the magnetic moment variation and if it has a substantial effect on the planetary movement, so maybe something is happening on this front. Venus may be experiencing something we are experiencing on a more subtle level. Only data would tell.

Could earth be experiencing it on the same level, only it's not being reported due to the fact that the people making the measurements aren't sharing that information?
It is not impossible, but as long as the effects cannot be observed by anyone, we cannot know for sure.anart said:Could earth be experiencing it on the same level, only it's not being reported due to the fact that the people making the measurements aren't sharing that information?
It would be nice to get a references on that.Windmill knight said:It has been reported that Earth's rotation has slowed down by some 7 seconds a year (need to look for the reference and double check but it was on sott), while Venus by 6.5 minutes a day - only that Venus' day lasts 243 Earth days. So depending on the exact figures and when they were taken, it could be that proportionally the effect has been the same, which is what I understood Laura to be saying.

The main idea is that if there is a causal relation between the magnetic field variation and the orbital changes, even if these later are difficult to observe, it may be a non-negligible working hypothesis to "guess" what could be happening. It is known that sudden changes in the magnetic field are related to changes in global temperature, maybe subtle changes in orbital parameters are a missing link. But I'm still collecting the published literature on the subjects (and data).
On decadal time scales, the variations in the LOD have been shown
to be correlated with the secular variation of the magnetic field.
This suggests that the core plays an important role in these LOD changes.
These LOD variations are thus believed to be associated with the changes
in the core angular momentum (CAM). See II and III of this web page.
There, we show that different dynamics for the core with different CMB [core-mantle boundary]
velocity fields can lead to CAM explaining the observed scaled decadal
variation of the LOD.
[...]
VII. Present situation / Conclusion
robust correlation between decadal variations of the lod and modelled
core angular momentum;
various coupling mechanisms; a mixture of electromagnetic, topographic
and gravitational most likely;
no constraint on core dynamics from studies of lod variations but study of dynamics
provides the best chance of progress.
That's the point, and thanks for the links ;)Approaching Infinity said:But if the electric universe theory is correct, core dynamo isn't the real (sole) reason for our magnetic field. So if outside forces control/affect our magnetic field (i.e. different bodies discharging the solar capacitor), it looks like it's possible that this will have an effect on the length of the day, perhaps via this electromagnetic torque/coupling on the core's angular momentum. (Also consider the possible effects of a changed hydrological cycle and dust loading of the atmosphere on angular momentum, thus changing affecting rotation.) Of course, WYSIATI (what you see is all there is), so as long as these other factors aren't looked at, scientists will try to make sense of it using only what's in front of them.

jovichmk said:Now get back to the motor. If we change the magnetic field othe stator we are changing the rotation. With the analogy - if we change the outer magnetic field that is influencing the earth we are changing the rotation.If that Sun twin is coming this way it means that the efects of his magnetic field will increase, and with that the influence of the planetary rotors will be much bigger.
