[...] There is another type of motion which the earth experiences. If you’ve ever spun a coin, as it spins rapidly, you’ll observe that the axis around which the coin is spinning tends to move in a slow circular path. The following diagram shows a spinning object that is experiencing this type of motion.

This type of motion is called precession and is also experienced by the earth. The earth’s axis wobbles from its position in a circular path. The earth’s precession is extremely slow and it takes almost 26,000 years for the earth’s axis to complete one precession cycle.
