    What's it like if I were standing on earth's axis?

    One would think that the tidal forces (I think you are referring to the ocean masses of water shuffling around the earth) would act on or influence the tilt of the axis however slightly. If that is so, and the moon's gravitational pull on the Earth and the bodies of water (tides) that the moon...

    What's it like if I were standing on earth's axis?

    Yes your are correct on that the Earth axis does tilt and change and is not fixed. It does vary (wobble) from what I understand from our books that teach us. But I am only speaking of the spinning of the Earth on its access points. I was not concerning the varying tilt of the axis in space as...

    Yes I know, I thought about the ice problem. My comment(s) about building my house up there were in jest. I know in most probability that it would not be feasible. :-) Anyway I am sure in this day and age we can get a team up there at the exact point (bring me along with you) and at least try...

    What's it like if I were standing on earth's axis?

    Thanks for replying with some info on these wonders of mine PhanthomJay and Redbelly98. I really put out these questions to spur thought on it but I still wonder, if I built a house right on the north pole actual dead center pivoting point of the Earth axis and lived there, due to the...

    Hi I am new to this forum and I am not even studying physics nor currently taking any classes in my old age. But I had a thought last night whilst tossing in my sleep and the question arose to my mind about what it would be like if I went to the North Pole and stood dead center aligned exactly...
