  • Excuse me is n't our earth rotate from west to east instead of the opposite the narrator said. If it really rotates from east to west our sun would have risen from the west & set in the east. Correct me if i am wrong

  • These guys get paid to dream up this stuff? What if.... What if we could swim inside volcanoes? What if we could stop time? What if politicians were honest? It's nice to dream, but seriously we will NEVER be sailing on the surface of Sol.

  • Orion, don't jump in the sea XD step on it!!! or run away!!!

  • Too bad that city light drown them ..

  • @bjaya Well it depends on your perspective of reference. If you're looking at Earth from a celestial point of view (like from the Sun) then you would see eastern surfaces and then western, thus the Earth rotates from east to west because that's the order you'd see them move in. But if you mean a geographical point of motion like California(west) moves towards New York(east) then yes it moves from west to east. Here's how I'd put it: East is in the drivers seat and West is in the back following.

  • Hello, I am starting up a site similar to YouTube but it will only be for educational purposes so that teachers can use videos as part of their lessons in schools. Would you be willing to upload your video to my new site to help me get started? There is no cost to you of course, I just need some people to start uploading educational videos to the site. Thanks
