Repeating a question posed by Érdi Gergő initially on why the daylight in Singapore is already more than 12 hours before the equinox, we are now surprised to see the daylight length is always more than 12 hours in Singapore. Why is this? Equatorial bulge? 1⁰N and the right eccentricity?

There's such a thing as oppressive #eccentricity from those you live with which can feel like #abuse . Consistant behaviour which makes demands of you or is just wearing, day-to-day. In can intersect with mental health issues which is tricky but I'm making the distinction of people robbing you of quiet, peace and normalcy because of the oddness of how they live.

Now #heat is a kind of #energy and energy has to come from somewhere! It turns out that tides have the unique ability to extract energy trapped in a planet/moon's #orbit and/or #rotation and transform it into internal heat!

Over millions of years this effect is powerful enough to alter a planet/moon's orbital distance, #eccentricity (how elliptical an orbit is), rotation rate (how long a planet's day is), and more. This has actually happened to Earth and our Moon! But we will get back to that.
