Moon and Sun gravitation moves Earth sea and land {tide}|. Earth gravity and land-and-sea elasticity oppose tides. Shallow-water tide motion makes heat by friction, which takes energy from Earth rotational energy. Earth rotation slows, making each day slightly longer. Earth-Moon distance increases slightly each day.
