This may be a stupid question....but I can't figure it out...:uhoh:

 

Give me an explanation

Yea lol.

The Earth is turning counter-clockwise.

until the earth starts to spin the other way it shall rise in the east

thats actually a good questiong :thinking:

I don't get it :confused:

I honestly thought you were kidding, Jules hehe

 

But anyway, yes, it does. As it turns out hundreds of years ago, this mad man, Galileo, found out that the earth actually revolves around the sun not the other way around hence having the sun rising in the east in all parts of the world along with the fact that the Earth as well revolves around itself.

Maybe if you were at the north/south poles the sun won't rise in the east ;)

Why..?

thats actually a good questiong :thinking:

 

NO, it isn't...

 

BWAHAHA I lol at all of you.

 

:nice:

What the fuck?

Well assuming you're at a time in which the Earth isn't tilted at all (0 degrees), the sun wouldn't really "rise" at all, it'd just chill on the horizon endlessly.

 

(To answer the North Pole question)

ahhh now I feel ashamed...:bigcry:

 

but I was serious...ah I hate physics...:wacky:

Cos no matter which way you face you will be facing north/south.

Are you serious? :lol:

:bigcry:

 

Ok, now that I think about it....it has to be on the east side...but ahhh I still don't really get that in my mind...

I was reminded of the typical lemon orange image...I think I got it

lol

Cos no matter which way you face you will be facing north/south.

Oh haha

In honesty, yes.

:wacky:

 

noup... :nice:

The sun always rises in the east but at different inclines to the north or south depending on what season it is. In the Artic and Antarctic there are actually months were there is total sunshine or total darkness.
