Our sun is in a 105,000-year elliptical orbit around the Procyon and Sirius star systems. The observed motions of Sirius and Procyon do not support any notion of orbital relationship with our sun. In addition, if the Sun was in such an orbit, the orbital period would why do you idiots bother with such idiots? Mostly to try to educate others who may read this and who may be unaware of this. If the idiot loses his "market" of people who are willing to believe in him, he may eventually go silent. Perhaps I'm an idiot too when doing this - but I prefer that over becoming a cynic. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Schlyter, Grev Turegatan 40, SE-114 38 Stockholm, SWEDEN e-mail: pausch at stjarnhimlen dot se WWW: http://stjarnhimlen.se/ Is this why you and others of your kind wouldn't allow a public owned supercomputer to run off a few complex simulations? WHAT ????????????? Did I ever prohibit anyone to run simulations on a supercomputer? No I don't think so (if you want to dispute this, please refer to something where I wanted to prohibit this. You won't find it, because I never did that). BTW CPU power is hardly a matter anymore - the average laptop of today has a CPU power which clearly exceeds the CPU power of the supercomputers only a few decades ago such as the Cray-1, Cray-XMP, Cray-2 .... So why don't you go ahead and run whatever complex simulations you want on your laptop! I don't want to stop you, and even if I wanted to I would be unable to do so. The only thing which can stop you is your own lack of knowledge, skill, or motivation to create such a simulation. Good luck! You are aware of the original combined mass of the Sirius star/solar system? The original mass hardly matters. What matters if you want our solar system to orbit Sirius is the current mass of Sirius. In the beginning when those ice age and subsequent thaw cycles were more frequent, thereby the original stellar mass certainly does matter. I think it has a little something to do with the continuing expansion of the universe, or at least the 225 million year galactic cycle of the Milky Way, though I could be wrong. Perhaps it's merely a barycenter issue, so that we only get to within something under one light year, although 0.086 ly would certainly make those complex elliptical trek simulations a whole lot more interesting. What about the mutual tidal radius loss after Sirius B kind of went postal on us? btw, another pesky cosmic question of the day: Where’s the Sirius B cocoon? (are we not within it?) ~ BG |
