The size of the Earth planet is smaller than a belief

Academic Paper Summary by: Mesho581    

Original Author: Dr. Heasham Ahmed Taha

The size of the Earth planet is smaller than a belief
 
Study

found that the size of the Earth is smaller, which was supposed to at least several millimeters of what it was.
During the study conducted by scientists from the University of Bonn in Germany, take precise measurements on the planet, the blue and have concluded that several millimeters in diameter, less than scientists previously believed. Despite this lack of difference that may have been relevant to establish the extent of sea-level rise due to climate change and that, according to the University of Bonn.
Study demonstrated the interrelationship between sea-level rise and climate change, in addition to the continuing divergence of Europe from America. The results of the research project were published in a special issue of "Journal of geodetic".
On the merits of the study, researchers have used this difference to measure the precise magnetic waves emanating from distant objects in the universe known as "Koaisar" a distant astronomical source of electromagnetic energy, including light (may be a galaxy).
The network is composed of more than 70 of the telescope to receive these waves of magnetic waves.
Because the measuring stations are far from each other, it receives magnetic signals from a small time lag to each other.
According to the site of "the creative auspices of the Sudanese", said that the researchers able to through the calculation of the difference in time between the dimension of the telescopes and precision of up to 2 mm per thousand kilometers.
Dr. Axel Nuteangel "the head of the team," said that this method allows proving the divergence of Europe from North America on an ongoing basis and by 18 mm per year. Dr. Notnagel pointed to the possibility of knowledge of the size of the Earth through the dimension between the stations.
A comparison of this dimension with the satellite data can be calculated in the coordinates of 400 points on the Earth''s surface almost unprecedented accuracy and on this basis is established coordinate system of the revised land.
