⚡ Gravitational Stress — What the Tides Do
The Moon and Sun measurably flex the solid Earth — ground tides move the crust tens of centimetres twice a day, strongest at perigee (closest lunar approach) and at full/new moon alignment (syzygy). This page shows those observed gravitational rhythms — scheduled astronomy and measured values only. It makes no claim about earthquakes and predicts nothing.
