There may come a time when the earth will slow enough to lock with the moon, so a single point on earth faces the moon at all times. If this happens before the gravity center reaches the surface of the earth, then there may come a time after that when you can stand at a spot, the moon directly above you, and the earth would truely revolve around you. Of course I have no idea of the rates everything is moving, such as the distance between earth and moon, or the slowing of earths rotation. But it's something of a ponder!
Curious question! I wonder if there will even be sex by then. Our far-futured offspring may no longer need sex. Nanocells would take over for living flesh, and use common elements to reproduce from. Little atomic micro machines instead of flesh. Maybe sucking on batteries will provide a thrill. Who knows? Oh it's that time of the month, I'm leaking hydrocarbons again! Also I'm sure the moon cycles are really going to matter when the sun has swelled up and made earth into a crispy little crust! Talk about hot flashes! Good question though!;-)
Lime and limpid green, a second scene A fight between the blue you once knew. Floating down, the sound resounds Around the icy waters underground. Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda and Titania. Neptune, Titan, Stars can frighten. Blinding signs flap, Flicker, flicker, flicker blam. Pow, pow. Stairway scare, Dan Dare, who's there? Lime and limpid green, the sounds around The icy waters under Lime and limpid green, the sounds around The icy waters underground.
Back on subject, wouldn't the sun just swell up and cook everything by then?
