Earth's Rotation Visualized in a Timelapse of the Milky Way Galaxy

⇒ www.youtube.com

#218 | 9/10/2017 | Author: Aryeh Nirenberg | Type: Youtube | Keywords: Earth's Rotation, Milky Way, EQ Mount, Time Lapse

A time lapse of the Milky Way that was recorded using an equatorial tracking mount over a period of around 3 hours to show Earth's rotation relative to the Milky Way.

Measuring Earth's Rotation with a Compton generator

⇒ en.wikipedia.org

#75 | Author: Wikipedia | Type: Website | Keywords: Measuring, Earth's Rotation

A Compton generator or Compton tube is an apparatus for experiment to demonstrate the Earth's rotation, similar to the Foucault pendulum and to gyroscope devices.

Measuring the irregularities of the Earth's rotation

⇒ www.iers.org

The variability of the earth-rotation vector relative to the body of the planet or in inertial space is caused by the gravitational torque exerted by the Moon, Sun and planets, displacements of matter in different parts of the planet and other excitation mechanisms. The observed oscillations can be interpreted in terms of mantle elasticity, earth flattening, structure and properties of the core-mantle boundary, rheology of the core, underground water, oceanic variability, and atmospheric variability on time scales of weather or climate. The understanding of the coupling between the various layers of our planet is also a key aspect of this research.

International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service
The primary objectives of the IERS are to serve the astronomical, geodetic and geophysical communities by providing data and standards related to Earth rotation and reference frames.

IRS Align Mode - Carefully Measuring Earth's Rotation

⇒ www.youtube.com

For several decades, long-range aircraft have used Inertial Navigation Systems/Inertial Reference Systems as sources for position information and as the primary sources for orientation information (pitch/bank/yaw/heading).

This video demonstrates the alignment process of a Honeywell IRS as it carefully measures the slow rotation of the earth to determine the aircraft's latitude and direction to the geographic north pole. The IRS uses Earth rotation to calculate an accurate latitude which it will use to cross-check the initial position that is supplied during the align mode for reasonableness.

Field Artillery Manual accounts for Earth's Rotation

⇒ Field Artillery Manual accounts for Earth's Rotation

#96 | Author: Walter Bislin | Type: Website | Keywords: Artillery, Earth's Rotation, Coriolis

Manual that shows that in Field Artillery the rotation of the Earth is taken into account. They have to correct for the vertical (range) and horizontal (azimuth deviation) components of the Coriolis acceleration.

Does the Earth rotate?

#146 | 7/19/2019 | Author: Bob the Science Guy | Type: Youtube | Keywords: Earth's Rotation, Evidence

A collection of evidences that the earth rotates: Clouds lit from below, Mountain casting shadow on the underside of clouds, Star Trails, 24 hour sun at the Poles, 2 Celestial Poles with opposite rotations, Centrifugal Force, Eötvös Effect, Laser Gyroscope, Gyrocompass.

Fallexperimente zum Nachweis der Erdrotation

⇒ de.wikipedia.org

Fallexperimente zum Nachweis der Erdrotation sind physikalische Experimente, mit denen ab etwa 1800 erstmals die Drehung der Erde um ihre eigene Achse empirisch nachgewiesen werden konnte. Die Erdrotation verursacht bei frei fallenden Körpern eine Ostablenkung gegenüber dem Lot. In der Systematik der heutigen Physik wird sie als Teilaspekt des Corioliseffektes behandelt.

Detection of earth rotation with a diamagnetically levitating gyroscope

⇒ mctoon27.files.wordpress.com

The accuracy of traditional, mechanical gyroscopes is limited by drifts caused by a remnant unbalance of the rotor and friction in its bearing, and it is practically impossible to suppress such drifts to a level below 10−3 ΩE. To demonstrate the feasibility of the diamagnetically levitating gyrometer, we have measured the earth rotation by using a 2 cm diameter plastic ball suspended in a magnetic field of about 15 T.

Orbit of the ISS proves the Earth is rotating

⇒ www.youtube.com

#170 | 5/28/2020 | Author: Wade's Underworld | Type: Youtube | Keywords: ISS, Orbit, Earth's Rotation, Gyroscope

The orbital path of the international space station is constantly changing. Using a ISS tracker app, this little clip I made, shows how the path is changing due to the rotation of the earth. ~ Wade's Underworld

An orbit is like a gyroscope. It keeps the plane of motion in the same orientation with respect to the fixed stars. The ISS is on such an orbit, but from the view point of the earth the orbital path changes constantly. This can only be due to the earth rotating below the ISS.

Inertial Navigation System (INS)

⇒ www.skybrary.aero

General description of INS: Definition, Alignment, Technology, Accuracy and Limitations.

  • Alignment uses earth's rotation and gravity to find latitude and true north
  • Influence of earth's rotation and Coriolis effects on the accuracy of the INS.
