    If the earth took 28 hours to make a full rotation. Would we still have a 7 day week?

    Yes imho, if you don't still consider 24hrs still 1 day since it would take 28 for 1 full revolution of the earth to make one day, it would just be broke into 14hr segments the periods of light and darkness. But if you kept with 24 hrs in a single day then logically it should be an 8 day week. My question would be though is if we did have 28hr days what would that do to the climate on earth? Would we have weird weather patterns or less gravity since the rotation of the earth would be slowed?

    Ok to early for this train of thought better take some advil to ward off potential headaches.

    Interesting. Assuming we were still flying around the sun at the same speed and you wanted to keep 365 days in a year then obviously there couldn?t be seven days in a week. Six days would get us pretty close.

    Maybe any questions about the rotation of the earth should be directed towards one of those flat earth guys? That would be fun.

    It would also be interesting to see how the slower rotation affected gravity as well.

    Maybe more gravitational effect due to less inertia effectively crippling fat people?
