A retired space physicist has put together an impressive set of online science courses, with the help of friends but little support from NASA and other agencies. |

A retired space physicist has put together an impressive set of online science courses, with the help of friends but little support from NASA and other agencies. I see they are beginning to draw on Uranus which happens to be my work when it comes to planetary comparisons.Uranus gets rid of the old 'no tilt/no seasons' ideology and sets the matter on a solid foundation where a planet experiences an equatorial climate, a polar climate or a mixture of both with the Earth's climate largely equatorial. Maybe they should also steal the connection between the spherical deviation of the Earth and the planet's magnetic field which is tied in with an uneven rotational gradient in the rotating viscous interior as an extension of the main area of study which meshes plate tectonics with the 26 mile spherical deviation due to differential rotation. How many more things will they eventually steal while at the same time lament about funding - I did all it with my own time and money in the most hostile environment imaginable.If they are going to use Uranus in respect to the seasons,e-mail them and explain to them that the Earth's axis precesses 360 degrees to the central Sun about a traveling ecliptic axis - it takes nothing more than an imitation analogy to discern the two axes of the Earth in order to make sense of the seasons and why natural noon cycles vary. The world needs a new breed of astronomers rather than another retired physicist . |
