Las Mareas

The video explains the phenomenon of tides, highlighting the gravitational pull of the moon and its effects on Earth. It describes how tidal forces cause water to rise and fall twice daily and how these forces also affect the Earth's crust and the moon. The video discusses the impact of gravity over distance and the role of the sun in tidal strength. It predicts future changes in the Earth-Moon system, including potential disintegration if the moon gets too close to Earth. The video concludes with a warning about the destructive power of tidal forces near black holes.
