Equinox/ orbital orientation

Go to sleep now with Newton watching over you or all those theorists
trying to sell you a parallel universe or something exotic.Yawn out you
explanations to kids and tell them how great Isaac or Albert was and
then put them to sleep into the same abstract universe which most
people would call nightmares.


Liked your sunset pictures -

Pity that is all you will ever see,sunrise/sunset.

Astronomers can enjoy these images as another view of the Earth
passing into and out of its orbital shadow but it has been so long
since those people walked the planet,beaten by the brute mentality of
cataloguers and mathematicians pretending to be astronomers.

Sorry, but as a newbie to all this, could you please explain your argument
concisely and completely ? (preferably without tints of tourettes).

Cataloguers screwed up by assigning an axial tilt component to the
Equation of time which forces recognition of seasonal changes such as
daylight/darkness asymmetry.

In the confusion many are incapable of seperating the idea that the
total lenght of day from noon to noon changes rather than changes in
the lenght of daylight/darkness,sunrise/sunset and the the Equation of
time has nothing to do with any perceived motion of the Sun above or
below the equator.

You need a sundialist who can think in terms of the motion of the Earth
and the Sun as a fixed reference rather than the motion of the Sun
causing the change in a shadow across the dial.

The error originated with John Flamsteed and was adopted by Newton and
it is downhill ever since,at least in astronomical terms.If you imagine
that these guys know what they are doing,I assure you they do not.

Sorry.
