CERN plans to build what the U.S. should have 23 years ago
Astronomers write in a language that is unknown to those who lack the intuitions which come with experience and unfortunately almost a lost language due to the presence of mathematicians pretending to be astronomers. There are lots of examples, some more beautiful than the next, however, on the occasion of a lunar eclipse , one of the greatest examples of astronomical reasoning is Plutarch -
"For if whatsoever space, and whatever thing exists away from the center of Earth, is the ‘above,’ then no part of Earth is ‘below,’ but Earth herself and the things upon Earth; and, in a word, everybody standing around or investing the center, become the ‘above;’ whilst ‘below’ is one sole thing, that incorporeal point, which has the duty of counterbalancing the whole constitution of the world; if, indeed, the ‘below’ is by its nature opposed to the ‘above.’ And this is not the only absurdity in the argument, but it also does away with the cause through which all ponderous bodies gravitate in this direction, and tend downwards: for there is no mark below towards which they move: for the incorporeal point is not likely (nor do they pretend it is) to exert so much force as to draw down all objects to itself, and keep them together around itself. But yet, it is proved unreasonable, and repugnant to facts, to suppose the ‘above’ of the world to be a whole, but the ‘below’ an incorporeal and indefinite limit: whereas that course is consistent with reason, to say, as we do, that the space is large and possessed of width, and is defined by the ‘above’ and the ‘below’ of locality." Plutarch In a world dominated by celestial sphere enthusiasts who can't reference anything to the Sun or inner solar system, the value of this information is lost ,at least so far. |
