Imagine a man-made structure so powerful it could subtly alter the rotation of the Earth. The massive dam wall in China's Three Gorges isn't just setting records for electricity generation—it's also influencing planetary mechanics in unexpected ways, according to NASA's research.
NASA's findings reveal that the process of filling the dam's enormous reservoir can affect the Earth's rotation, slightly extending the length of our days. While this change is imperceptible in daily life, it underscores humanity's capacity to impact planetary dynamics on a grand scale.
