Hi Can anybody please direct me towards calculations of the direction of sunrise/set, moonrise/set ant different times of the year (based on latitude of the observer i suppose? many thanks stew |

I don'y know if they still provide a demo version though. BTW ignore anything from Oriel. He's either a total fruitloop or some sort of posting bot. Bill |

Give the original poster a break and stop posting your crap. John. Another sub-geocentric apologist or rather a celestial sphere geometer adherent. Tell me,discovering that your Ra/Dec system which qualifies the Earth's motions using the return of a star to a location requires an additional day every 4th year to keep ticking over,how does it feel to know that you join the creationists in the astronomical cartoon version of heliocentric astronomy ?. I am sorry that you are not an astronomer and do not feel the remorse at the temporary destruction of the great work of the pre-Copernican and heliocentric astronomers for astrological celestial sphere geometry with all its 'predictive' qualities.Let me show you what it looks like - http://www.opencourse.info/astronomy...phere_anim.gif Every star in that animation will return to a location in 23 hours 56 minutes 04 seconds but requires a calendar cycle of 3 years of 365 days and 1 year of 366 days to work.Humanity is in big,big trouble considering the late 17th century creation by Flamsteed was allowed to snowball for centuries. |

Climatological considerations and especially the very visible extreme meteorological events occuring presently would normally generate intense discussion here as global climate conditions are a direct result of the Earth's motions in solar radiation. The original poster is still using a system based on the pseudo-dynamic of variable axial tilt which in turn is used as the basic working principle for climatology.A neccessary astronomical modification is required to expunge the correlation between axial tilt to the Sun in creating hemispsherical weather patterns (seasons) and replace it with a more focused view of the Earth's axial and orbital motions in solar radiation. http://www.climateprediction.net/ima...ges/annual.gif The oscillation of temperature bands is primarily due to the length of time a given latitudinal location spends in direct solar radiation and in the Earth's orbital shadow.This global view of climate allows a clear distinction between cause and effect insofar as global climate sets the conditions for meteorological patterns whereas the present view,taken directly from De Revolutionibus chapt 11, imposes a hemispherical view on climate through a pseudo-dynamic of variable axial tilt. The great astronomers could make insightful conclusions based on taking the Earth's motions into account,contemporary astronomers with actual images of the Earth from space before them are supposed to do the same thing,at least for climatological purposes. |
