How The Moon's Gravity Shapes Earth's Day Night Cycle

The video explains how the gravitational pull of moon is slowing down the spin of Earth causing the days to lengthen.
Imagine a time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth and a year had 370 days! Back then, our planet spun faster, making days shorter. But here's the twist: the Moon, with its invisible gravitational hands, is tugging on Earth, slowing down its spin like a cosmic brake. This cosmic slowdown adds about 1.7 milliseconds to each day every century, making days gradually longer. So, while we now have 365 days in a year, this slow dance between Earth and the Moon is stretching our days just a tiny bit longer over time.
