How do you know its not a satellite? As opposed to a planet? Its orbit all mapped out, you just tracked Uranus1 nice. Would that be a hard stunt to pull off?

You saw something shiny. Lots of things are shiny. Lets not leap to conclusions about extra imaginary planets.
Let's review a few things.
1) You claim to have proven that Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto don't exist, based solely on a model that requires that the planets revolve around the entire round Earth.
2) You say that the model is true.
3) Therefore, the Earth is round.

Is it any wonder that this site is failing so badly when Thork makes such concessions?

Actually, you're the one that brought up Newton's alchemy as if it was relevant.  I was merely refuting the claim that you made based on the article that you cited.
So you have nothing to say about Ptolemy's solar system and the days of the week? I see.

Lurk moar.  I already told Tom that Ptolemy's geocentric solar system only works as a round earth system.  As for the days of the week...  Well, I've always thought that Monday is a bad way to start a work week.  Other than that, I don't see what the days of the week have to do with retrograde motion either.

I still cannot produce retrograde motion accurately in a flat earth model.  The mechanism that Tom posted can produce an S shape, but not for only 3 months of the year...  So tom, im contending that it is not possible while maintaining a constant speed for a planet to show only 3 months of retrograde motion in the model you posted.  Please provide the results where you found this to be possible, as i cannot reproduce it.

Isaac Newton thought he could turn lead into gold.
Yes, he did.  Newton was one of those insane geniuses you hear about, like Vincent van Gogh.  In fact, the two were very similar.  They did not get along with other people.  Both were known to become extremely angry when challenged.  This does not, however, change the fact that they were geniuses with good ideas.  That is true Argumentum ad hominem.

One model should be enough. Imagine this above us.

Look closely at the Earth in this image.  It is distinctly round.  This model works based on a spherical Earth.  If you flattened out the Earth, this model would no longer explain the view of Mars in the sky.  Look at http://www.jimloy.com/cindy/ptolemy.htm.  First diagram shows a red arrow.  This is an observer on Earth observing Mars.  The planets both move, but the arrow itself slows down, goes backwards, slows, and turns forward again.  This is what causes the view to be like the second diagram.  Ptolomy believed that the Earth was a sphere in the center of the universe, so his epicycles were his explanation for the behavior.  It makes no sense on a flat Earth.











FET only has 5 planets.

Another mind-bendingly obvious FET-is-wrong.  Amateur astronomers see them Uranus and Neptune every day.

A logical answer is, "How do you know those are actually them?"  Because they pointed their telescopes at a specific angle to find the planets based on the known RET-based orbits of the planets.  Click on the first link again if skeptic.

Just to clear things up, these are the days of the week:  http://deoxy.org/time/d2k/thedays.htm

There were five planets, a sun, and a moon visible to the ancients in the night sky.  This is probably what the seven days in the Bible came from in the first place (just a wild guess).

All in all, the week was based off the celestial bodies, not the other way around, exemplified well by zarg.

If you scroll down there is an s shape for mars in 2005, with a 36 week time period shown.   I can not produce a shape like that in the model that you gave me for that period of time.  Not to say that you did not, but if you could give me the settings that you used to produce it that would be great.  As of right now i do not believe that it is possible.

If you scroll towards the bottom of the page, you will see a picture of mars' retrograde motion in 2005.  It does not cross its own path.  I contend that this is impossible in FEer, as the planets are directly overhead.

This would disprove FE.  This is not a topic of study, its a rational thought process.  No matter how you construct an FE model, planets orbing the sun would always cross their own path eventually.  there would be no way to produce the following result.

It should be noted the RE team has hundreds of players with fresh new players coming off the bench each week, where the FE team has about 5 players at any one time, and they are all knackered. It should also be acknowledged that we are playing into the wind and we don't get to swap ends at half time. Finding FE sources and documentation on the internet isn't exactly easy and finding RE answers to things, well that's a google away for any subject that comes up.

So I have to ask, if its about the sport of it, why after all his time are you still playing for team noob? It seems like you are saying "I will devour you, but I want to play with food first".

FEDA's mission is to provide:

-Industry information and business management tools to run a profitable dealership.
-Dealer-focused training and education that is relevant, cost effective and convenient.
-Opportunities to network and problem solve with other dealers to improve their business.

All of the above are focused on maintaining profitable dealerships capable of providing the knowledge, service and value needed by today's professional food service operator.

Since the recent derailment, I again post the following.  This is not a matter of something that needs to be studied, it is simply a pattern that is not possible in FE terms.  The pattern stems from the planets orbiting in the same rough plane as the earth orbits.  If the planet were directly overhead orbiting the sun, you could only produce a pattern where the path of the orbiting object crossed itself. 


If you scroll towards the bottom of the page, you will see a picture of mars' retrograde motion in 2005.  It does not cross its own path.  I contend that this is impossible in FEer, as the planets are directly overhead.

So you're arguing that because Mar's 2005 retrograde motion did not in reality cross its path that it somehow demonstrates that FEs (really lame) attempt with epicycles is false, right?

Heck, if FEers are already using special pleading to get epicycles to explain retrograde motion what would keep them from more special pleading that the epicycles move up and down relative to the plane of the planet's orbit to get the additional effect? Once they argue from fallacy, they can prove anything.

This thread is titled "Retrograde Motion of the Outer Planets". Is Mars an outer planet now? It is you that has no intention of keeping to the topic, instead preferring to shift tact whenever FET blocks your path.

I have earlier in this thread shown that the outer planets do not exist. The unsatisfactory reply I got to that was "The chinese have 10 days" and the laughable picture below.

^ That isn't proof of Neptune. Someone could have as easily said "The nucleus of an atom", "An algae cell", "My TV died". That is the laziest photoshop brought here as evidence I have ever seen.

As for retrograde motion of the inner planets (known hereafter due to a lack of outer planets as 'the planets'), retrograde motion is exactly what you would expect in a FE system.
The FE system has the earth at the centre. The sun revoles around the earth, and the planets revolve around the sun. This is closest to the Tychonian System for RET.


^ Also count the planets in the Tychonian system. No neptune or uranus rubbish. Uranus. I mean even the name is a joke at your expense.

I was trying to avoid getting dragged into a debate as its 2am, and I will not be able to follow it up. But I answered this stupid retrograde question to death a bunch of times. Its not new. Its not got FE stumped. No one has proved a thing from the RE side. the answers are all there. Stop screaming "no answer, no answer" when all you need to do is search.

What? Please observe the retrograde motion of Venus according to RET. So whatever the reality (round or flat earth), retrograde motion is part of it. Its at this point I will bid you a good evening, whilst you spend some time plugging some of those embarressing gaps in your knowledge
 
Quote from: http://www.scienceu.com/observatory/articles/retro/retro.html
As we view the moving Venus from the more slowly moving Earth, the line of sight (i.e., where in the sky, relative to the stars, we will see Venus) reverses its motion: it is first rotating counterclockwise, then (near the fourth and fifth position) starts rotating clockwise. This corresponds to the first reversal of apparent motion. A while later (around the ninth position) it starts rotating again in a counterclockwise direction, resulting in the second reversal. The same explanation works for the outer planets, too, only now it is the Earth that overtakes the other planet.
