The Coriolis Effect 🌪 #science #storms #corioliseffect #weather #neildegrassetyson | StarTalk

⏩ The Coriolis effect is a phenomenon caused by the rotation of the Earth. It deflects moving objects, like air or water, to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This effect influences the paths of objects over large distances, such as the movement of air masses and ocean currents, and plays a significant role in weather patterns and ocean circulation on Earth. . . . . . #space #science #physics #gravity #paradox #viral #astrophotography #astronaut #co
