A model showing what would happen to geography/geometry of the earth if it did not rotate.
Wow, that is so cool! A little odd to contemplate, but cool nonetheless.
It’s perfect! Sea level rise threatening valuable lands is forever nullifed, Cubans can walk to Florida, and Canukistan gets Lake Agassiz returned with interest. Alaskan wilderness preserves become ocean oil drilling bounties. Half of global warming is forever ended; no more tornadoes, typhoons, or hurricanes. The moon’s orbit will no longer be boosted outward by spin-orbit coupling. Let’s get an equatorial tessellation of NASA big boosters pointing west and light those candles.!
On the downside… Foucault pendula will cease (being tests of the Allais effect; not that NASA can route a rat’s ass to looking today).
