  • Why hasn't everything astronomical stopped rotating?

    From mitchrae3323@gmail.com@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 3 10:23:07 2023
    Even the Moon rotates equal to its orbit.
    That rotation is not changing...
    Gravity does not act as a friction.
    Where is the evidence for it
    if it has happened to the Earth
    for billions of years?

    What about all the stars?
    Why are they still rotating?
    Where is the evidence?

    And yet another steaming pile of idiotic gibberish from our resident
    moron.

    Are you still rotating Jim?

    Are you still rotating Jim?

    Are you still a moronic, babbling idiot?

    Obviously, yes, you are and always will be.

    It does.

    What about it does?
    Tides change the radius not rotation speed.

    Here, for a start: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day

    What about all the stars?

    Compare the rotational kinetic energy of a star with the loss due
    to "friction". How long does it take to lose half the rotation
    rate? An exercise for the reader.

    Why haven't the stars stopped turning?


    Where is the evidence?

    All around you.

    It is not showing up as stars not having rotation anymore...
    Gravity as its order does not create friction
    Even entrenchment does not have evidence
    in terms of the stars.

    Because that is not what one would expect after only a few billion years.


    That is convenient. So then what is your evidence?
