http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1208...24Schwartz.jpg You look at stellar circumpolar motion and conclude that each consecutive return of a star equates to one rotation however,even at its widest and rawest,that conclusion is found within the structure of 1461 days across 4 years and 4 complete circuits of the Earth around the Sun,in other words it is suppose to alert you to purest and most fundamental fact of all - that enclosed in 4 orbital circuits the Earth does not turn 1460 times but close enough to 1461 times. The image with smaller and smaller circuits is highly useful for determining constant axial alignment throughout an annual cycle so you look elsewhere for why the declination of the Sun varies with latitude,negligible at the equatorial coordinates and extreme at the polar latitudes and that is when the curtain rises on the additional axis around which the polar coordinates turn. The climate business in its current hideous form is nothing other than a statement about astronomy,not local politics,not carbon dioxide levels,not about graphs or speculation but simply the absence of astronomy in any meaningful shape other than a playground for astrophotographers.The stranglehold of mathematical theorists dumping junk into the celestial arena was bound to produce this living nightmare where the association between all the effects in one 24 hour cycle and one rotation of the planet are lost to your stellar circumpolar view that the Earth turns 1465 times in 1461 days. Stand your ground and discuss the issue for once otherwise join the sterility of Brown,Schlyter and all those who couldn't interpret an effect to save their lives and they know it. |

How many nuisances have come and gone - https://groups.google.com/group/sci....7ca027c?hl=en# It appears that none of you can move to the next level and are stuck with a conclusion that is merely an extension of the clockwork calendar system designed around the progression of 24 hour days in 4 years,which ultimately through a great deal of sorting and sifting,translates into 1461 rotations enclosed in 4 orbital circuits. There is no astronomy,no evolutionary geology,no climate studies as these things rely heavily on planetary dynamics. So,anyone wish to try their hand at the annual return of Sirius coincident with the flooding of the Nile and why they realized that to maintain the days fixed to the orital points of solstices and equinoxes,it was not possible to rely on a system of consecutive 365 days. As for you,well,better stick with your 1465 rotations in 1461 days and your puny graphics. |

If you find yourself actually understanding something he says well enough to agree with it, you should be worried. Very worried. It is quite a sight watching guys kill themselves trying to make planetary dynamics fit with stellar circumpolar motion on one side and then mouth off about climate on the other considering that it is impossible to discuss climate or any terrestrial science where planetary dynamics are involved without first acknowledging a simple fact.The sheer hostility towards something as normal as a rotating Earth and all the effects within a 24 hour period is hardly a good sign for revisiting the developmental timeline which begins with the calendar cycle and an annual meteorological event (flooding of the Nile) and the eventual incorporation of the 24 hour AM/PM cycle and the Lat/Long system.I don't think that even comprehending the Ra/Dec extensions which comprise of the image in the original post is in anyway difficult,not at all and once dealt with,it becomes possible to do something productive and creative for a change. In many high tech engineering industries when a problem exists,it is customary to look at the flow of information and look at junctures where problems exist,the proper perspective is that stellar circumpolar motion is an ideal way to prove that the daily rotational alignment stays constant but does not prove constant rotation,that precession as an axial trait is disproven and gets shifted to an orbital feature and the flow of information moves in many directions and towards many ends from terrestrial sciences to large scale astronomical modifications. Talent is always acquired with effort and especially in astronomy and while mathematicians,at least those who follow a particular cult agenda may try to mimic the intricacies and the complexities of astronomy,most already know they are out of their depth while others can just work comfortably with the material.It is nothing personal,it is a feature of the Universal personality to know the difference between cartoon novelties and the genuine satisfaction astronomy gives - it is apolitical as all human achievements at that level are. Far from the screaming of human control over global temperature is the simple astronomical fact that the huge daily temperature fluctuations are due to a single and simple motion of the Earth and these fluctuations and rotations never fall out of step for all the billions of years life has existed on this planet and where only local effects temporarily intervene. |

Do you want to pretend the Earth turns to noon in 24 hours in order to bridge a 3 minute 56 second difference to the return of a star within a steady progression of 24 hours days within the 365/366 day calendar system?. Without the fundamentals of timekeeping and its development from the calendar system up to the Ra/Dec extensions,you may all forget climate studies and if you are hopelessly lost with the experiences within a 24 hour period as one rotation of the planet as separate to its orbital motion then you lose the nmandate to discuss anything to do with science. |
