Enter Nicolaus Copernicus, a Renaissance astronomer whose groundbreaking work would revolutionize our perception of the cosmos. Copernicus’s heliocentric model proposed that the Sun, rather than the Earth, occupied the central position in the solar system. With the planets, including our own blue planet, revolving around the Sun, this new paradigm shifted our understanding of celestial mechanics. Copernicus’s monumental opus, “De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium,” laid the foundation for a Copernican revolution, igniting the spark of scientific progress.

Yet, it was Johannes Kepler who would breathe life into Copernicus’s heliocentric theory with his three laws of planetary motion. Building upon the observations of his predecessor Tycho Brahe, Kepler meticulously analyzed vast troves of data to unlock the secrets of the celestial dance. His first law, known as the Law of Orbits, shattered the notion of perfect circular paths and unveiled the truth of elliptical orbits. The planets, including our own beloved Earth, trace these elegant elliptical paths as they journey through space.

Kepler’s second law, the Law of Areas, further deepened our understanding of planetary motion. It revealed that a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times as it moves along its orbit. This remarkable insight not only elucidated the varying speeds of planets at different points in their orbits but also highlighted the conservation of angular momentum. Kepler’s laws harmoniously blended mathematical precision with the ethereal beauty of the cosmos, captivating the minds of astronomers and igniting the flames of scientific inquiry.

The grand finale came in the form of Kepler’s third law, the Law of Harmonies. By discerning the relationship between a planet’s orbital period and its distance from the Sun, Kepler uncovered the symphony of celestial proportions. This law allowed astronomers to calculate the orbital periods of planets, providing a deeper understanding of the intricate interplay between time, space, and celestial bodies. From the innermost planet, Mercury, to the distant realms of Neptune, the planets dance to the rhythms dictated by the harmonious balance of gravitational forces.

Revelation 8 verse 12
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!

Many factors can cause the earth to rotate faster. The sun increase its mass, the earth moves close to the sun, earth magnetic field increases. Maybe others that I may not be aware of.
