These two effects largely cancel each other out, and when you do the math, you find the Sun’s tidal force on the Earth is just about half that of the Moon’s. The way the Sun’s tidal force and the Moon’s tidal force interact on Earth…

They are so much smarter than us and that makes us look even more bad. But I feel like I should be able to protest, because there…
