Can Humans See the Earth Rotating?

Liputan6.com, Jakarta – If the Earth did not rotate, there would be no sunrises and sunsets, and no day and night.

We cannot feel the Earth’s rotation or see the planet spinning while going about our daily lives. However, is there a way to ensure its rotation when it steps on Earth? And is it possible to see our planet rotating from somewhere in outer space?

Quoted from the site Live ScienceThursday (23/2/2023), the answer depends on your time frame and perspective.

Earth’s rotation is defined as the movement of the Earth on its axis or axis. The direction of Earth’s rotation is from west to east. Gravity on Earth causes living things on it not to move and remain stationary even though the Earth is actually rotating.

The Earth rotates too slowly for its rotation to be visible from anywhere in real time. With the exception of time-lapse videos made from outer space, it’s impossible to see the Earth moving as it only makes one revolution every 24 hours. The speed is very slow – too slow for our eyes to detect.

So, humans cannot see the Earth’s rotation directly real time because of its very slow rotation, but there is a way to see the effect of planet Earth’s rotation.
