http://www.solstation.com/stars/fom2ring.jpg Ah,you kids will never get it. You forget the Sun has a forward motion in one direction about the galactic axis and this is reason alone to revist Keplerian orbital geometries. Oh,I forgot,you have problems with basic axial rotation let alone galactic orbital motions. BTW,did you not like the excellent video of what a transit of Venus actually is ?,you never responded in that post - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thBSD...elated&search= |

http://www.solstation.com/stars/fom2ring.jpg Ok, that's creepy. I just posted a Lord of the Rings reference in the "Bad Decision Regarding a Jiga-watt Handheld Laser" thread and now this. If that ^^ picture in the link up there doesn't look like that vv picture in the link down there, I'll eat my hat. And I only own two hats. Both baseball caps. And one is sweaty from work. http://mrsisson.myhosting.net/pics/eye_of_sauron.jpg MRSisson -- LOAD "GPL",8 SEARCHING FOR GPL LOADING READY. RUN |

I tried to read Lord of the Rings once, I don't know what all the fuss is about it, i was bored out of my skull and quit by about page 50 or so. Like watching grass grow. For me I much prefer good fast paced action like in Eric Harry's "Arclight" Once i started reading that i couldn't put it down - excellent book, wish they would make it into a movie. Eric |

The mask looks to be a diamond shape so that it blocks the maximum light where the star is, and blocks the least where the ring was expected to be. -- Harry F.
