Default Why are the 'Fixed Stars' so FIXED?

Henry, why don't you just accept that photons from a laser deflect by
an angle determined by the colour of the light and not the time between
photon arrivals, you did in a second post and disagreed in a third.


What a weird idea --- if the deflection angle depended on the time
between photon arrivals, the angle would change if the intensity of
the light was changed. If the light gets more intense, there will
naturally be a shorter time between the photon arrivals, since there
are more photons per time unit involved if the light is more intense.


I think Henry is scratching around for things to say to
argue with me rather than trying to present anything
sensible based on his theory because I've shown him how
it makes definitive predictions that he can't accept.

Btw, please write "wavelength of the light" instead of "colour of the
light". You probably know the difference, but feeble-minded people
like Henri will most likely confuse them with one another.


I did that quite deliberately. Henry has made a point of
saying that while conventional theory has the angle of
deflection for a grating dependent on wavelength, his
theory uses frequency. "Colour" was a way to convey the
concept without being specific as I knew he would use
any mention of wavelength to change the subject.

Are you denying ballistic theory says the speed is c+v relative to the
source? Are you denying it says the speed is asymptotic to c/n
relative to a medium where n is the refractive index of that medium?
I'm just applying your theory consistently.


You can't apply an inconsistent theory consistently..... it fails
if you try...... g


You and I know that, but Henry hasn't grasped it yet.
