So, yeah, Einstein was right:

Earth’s spin warps space around the planet, according to a new study that confirms a key prediction of Einstein’s general theory of relativity.

After 11 years of watching the movements of two Earth-orbiting satellites, researchers found each is dragged by about 6 feet (2 meters) every year because the very fabric of space is twisted by our whirling world.
