I knew it was my fault. The rate of transfer of rotational energy from the Earth to Moon by tidal braking is estimated at a billion watts. This causes the earth’s rotation to slow down by about 0.002 seconds/day/century and the radius of the moon’s orbit to increase by 1.5”/year. We truly are puny on a cosmic scale.
