Thanks to everyone for the recent variation on the sporge flood introduced into threads however the music of astronomy can't be drowned out no matter how faint it sounds to an individual.

Many things of human origin can be described as 'timeless' in that regardless of what era they are placed they evoke the same feeling of satisfaction as they originally did. The example of Copernicus being that rather than looping/wandering motions intrinsic to individual planets as they move around a stationary Earth, the correct resolution is a faster moving Earth overtaking slower moving planets in a Sun centered system -

The narrative of human involvement in timekeeping is also spectacular even if the story is extended across many thousands of years where timekeeping comes into close proximity to the daily and orbital cycles of the Earth, in fact, timekeeping is also a timeless positive of human history. It too has a founding image attached, in this case the first annual appearance of a star to the right of the Sun or a dawn appearance as observers would register it -

It is the sight of this star which determines the proportions of rotations to orbital circuits and specifically the close proximity of 1461 rotations to 4 orbital circuits which reduces, by logic, to 365 1/4 rotations to one circuit.

The great events of Holy Week are designed around astronomical events but denominational Christianity has unfortunately lost the significance and the joy of its astronomical heritage and will always lacking something on that account.
