Earth rotates about its axis once a day, but it does not do so uniformly. Instead, the rate of rotation varies by up to a millisecond per day. David R. Inglis, Argonne National Laboratory, Lemont, Illinois, PDF Share, Rev. Mod. Phys. 29, 9 – Published 1 January, 1957. This section provides a detailed account of geometric arguments that underlie a surprisingly simple way to estimate the tilt of the Earth's axis.
