Title: Legit. Question For FE'ers..?
Post by: believer23 on November 22, 2009, 04:56:16 AM

I understand how night and day is explained and your theories on that, but what about constellations? Like how you can see Orion during one half of the year but you can't the other half? =]

Try the FEW. Celestial gears.

Celestial gears have been proved to be nonsense.

I wasn't aware. Could you post the thread?

Celestial gears would result in the angular distance between a star on one gear and a star on another gear changing on a cyclical basis. This cannot be observed happening and distance between stars changes only on the most infinitesimal level as seen from earth and not cyclically.
Given that the celestial gear idea therefore directly conflicts with what is observed, it is disproved.
