The Pacific Ocean is a gift from God.

The circular motion of ocean currents, combined with the rotation of the Earth, produces two superimposed centrifugal effects.

Together they create exactly the same phenomenon as Newton’s bucket experiment.


As a result:

the sea level at the Equator is lower than in the surrounding regions, forming a concave surface, just like the curved water surface in a rotating bucket.

Nor is the Pacific alone—the Atlantic behaves identically.

About the Author

I love science as much as art, logic as deeply as emotion.

I write the softest human stories beneath the hardest sci-fi.

May words bridge us to kindred spirits across the world.
