But the moon is one-face, so tidal stress should be constant.
- harperlee 9y agoWhat about the sun's? If the force is strong enough to make earth orbit, and moon-to-sun distance oscillates, plus seasonal behaviour, there must be quite some straining tides...
- hyperpallium 9y agooh yeah, that makes sense. It's a tiny fraction of the moon-sun distance, but it would have some efrect. Is it a "tidal" force, though?
- andai 9y agoThe sun also creates the tides.
