the earth spins of course as it travels
around<00:01:10.720> the<00:01:10.880> sun<00:01:11.119> so<00:01:11.280> the<00:01:11.439> earth<00:01:11.680> bulges<00:01:12.159> a
around the sun so the earth bulges a
around the sun so the earth bulges a

and
and
and
even<00:01:16.320> though<00:01:16.640> mount<00:01:16.880> chimborazo<00:01:17.600> isn't<00:01:17.840> the
