Abstract

A method of modifying the Earth-rotation vector relative to the body of the planet or in inertial space by redistribution of the Earth's mass.

Claims (17)

1 . A method of modifying the orientation of the axis of rotation of a planet comprising the steps of:

measuring the mass of a planet;

determining the center of mass of the planet;

characterizing the orientation of the axis of rotation of the planet;

selecting a desired orientation of the axis of rotation;

calculating a moment of stability required to cause the desired orientation of the axis of rotation;

determining a position and a mass of compensating substance sufficient to effect the moment of stability; and

positioning the mass in the position.

2 . The method of claim 1 in which the position of the compensating substance is positioned in an underground cavity.

3 . The method of claim 1 in which the position of the compensating is positioned in an above ground cavity.

4 . The method of claim 1 in which the substance is solid.

5 . The method of claim 1 in which the substance is a liquid.

6 . The method of claim 2 in which the substance is a liquid.

7 . The method of claim 3 in which the substance is liquid.

8 . The method of claim 5 in which the liquid is water.

9 . The method of claim 6 in which the liquid is water.

10 . The method of claim 7 in which the liquid is water.
