Yeah, the Moon is heating up the oceans on Earth which causes it to
lose orbital energy.

Star Trek is for kids. Babylon 5 is for adults.
To be fair, ST had to put up with the rules of broadcast TV. B5 was on
cable so it could be adult. I am not implying that B5 is pornographic
- far from it. But it was free to be much more expressive, more
creative, and therefore more realistic.
In the case of ST they put a wuss like Nelix with little girls. In B5
they would never let Londo around anything with a skirt and female
glands.
