Well the earth is rotating while simultaneously revolving around the sun.

其实地球在同也绕太阳公。

In summary, the tilt of our planet has a much greater significance compared to the variations in distance to the Sun.

总之，地球轴倾斜对气候影响比与太阳距离造成影响大更多。

And if we look at the Sun-Earth system from afar we find that the Earth's axis maintains the same orientation regardless of its position in its orbit around the Sun.

如果我们从远处看一下太阳与地球关系，我们可以发现地球轴始终保持相同方向，无论在轨道位置哪一个地点。

It's not only the biggest planet. Scientists say Jupiter is also the fastest spinning and completes a day in less than 10 hours.

木星不仅是最大行星，学家表示，也是速度最快行星，一天周期还不到10个小。

When a planet is that close to its star, its rotation becomes locked.

当一颗行星离所环绕恒星近，就会固定。

Due to the Earth's spin, the jet streams form then move from west to east, each one traveling on average at more than 100 miles per hour.

由于地球，高速气流由西向东移动，每条气流平均速超过了100英里。

One turn on the Earth's axis takes 24 hours — that's what makes one day.

地球一周，需要24小也就是一天。

This is really just a reflection of the Earth spinning, of course.

当然，这只是地球一种反映。

Let's just leave our planet to spin the way it does.

我们还是让地球继续吧。

Earth rotates at about a thousand miles per hour, but new research published in " Nature Geoscience" says that the Earth's inner core may have actually stopped turning and now might start to spin in reverse.

地球以每小1000英里速度，但《然地球学》上发表一项新研究却认为，内地核实际上可能已经停止动，并开始了反向旋。

24 hours makes one day that's just one time that I'm spun.

我一天是 24 小，那是我一圈间。

It takes 243 Earth days for Venus to complete one full rotation.

金星一圈需要243个地球日。

A large mass in turn entails two more unpleasant surprises: the accelerated rotation of the planet around its axis and a much higher temperature.

行星绕轴加速和更高温度。

Not to mention, the Earth's spin may increase, making days only hours long.

更不用说地球速度也将加快，一天可能只有几个小。

Earth spins on its axis currently at 23.4 degrees.

地球目前轴心为23.4度。

Telltale tweaks to the spins of dead stars called pulsars scattered throughout the Milky Way.

散布在银河系中、被称为“脉冲星”死亡恒星，其发生了微妙变化。

Phase two, activating the Torque Engines encircled along the equator to stop Earth's rotation.

第二阶段 启动绕赤道向发动机 驱使地球停止。

We forgot to put the rotation of the Earth into the equation.

我们忘了在方程式中加入地球了。

Now, some people were also afraid it could tilt the earth on its axis in a dangerous way or cool down Europe to the point there would be a new Ice Age.

现在，有些人还担心可能会以危险方式导致地球轴倾斜，或者使欧洲温度下降，从而引发新冰河期。

This might start with outposts in space, transition to infrastructure and industries near the home planet, move on to colonies, and end with terraforming other planets, by changing their atmosphere, their rotation, or position.

这可能会从建立太空前哨，进而将母星附近基础设施和工业区变成殖民地开始，并以改造其他行星大气、或位置告终。
