29silhouette,
If your were right (if your argument would make sense) then the Sun would look as if it's an immovable spot in the sky, and it would be so for any observer no matter where he would be placed at the surface of the Earth.
How many times do i have to stress this elementary fact to you?If the Earth rotated and if the Sun were 92 000 000 miles away, we wouldn't notice ZIGZAG phenomena from ANYWHERE on the Earth, but we wouldn't notice a huge (180 degree) displacement of the Sun (from East to West) in the way it happens in our reality, also!!!
If the Earth rotated and if the Sun were somewhere between a few thousands and 100 000 km away from the Earth we would notice ZIGZAG phenomena from anywhere on the Earth, except if we were standing at the poles. At the poles the Sun would look as if it's an immovable spot in the sky!
The only way how you get no difference between results of observations of the heavenly lights that take place at the North Pole and those observations that take place at any other place on the Earth, is if you observe heavenly lights standing at the FIXED, IMMOVABLE PLACE, and if heavenly lights circle around and above you, instead of vice versa.
The point is that the Sun is very, very close to the Earth, instead of being so insanely far away as HC ludicrous theory claims that it is.
Your idiotic HC-theory generates all kinds of problems, one of which is this:
According to current HC theory :
-- The Sun is stationary (for all practical purposes in our case)
-- The Moon is traveling in a direction West - East (RIGHT to LEFT) Why RIGHT to LEFT? Because we observe the Moon from northern "hemisphere" (Polaris is behind our backs).
-- The Earth allegedly turns in the same direction West - East (RIGHT to LEFT)
Now, the question:
In which direction (on which side of the Moon (RIGHT or LEFT)) we should expect first appearance of the portion of the Sun after eclipse is finished?
Shouldn't we expect that the first portion of the Sun-light (after eclipse is finished) begin to appear from the left side of the Moon (more precisely : from our LEFT side)?
If the rotation of the Earth (angular velocity) is more decisive (and it must be) than the alleged motion of the Moon (West - East) (RIGHT to LEFT), then we should expect that the first appearance of the Sun occurs from our LEFT side!
Our Sun is simply our reference point. Instead of the Sun we could also use some particular star (only there is no star which perfectly matches the size of the Moon).
So, i put this question once more: WHICH KIND OF MOTION IS DECISIVE, WHICH KIND OF MOTION MAKES THE DIFFERENCE???
A) ALLEGED ROTATION OF THE EARTH
B) ALLEGED ORBITAL MOTION (AROUND THE EARTH) OF THE MOON
If we are at the Equator, then the right answer is A, do you agree?
If we are at the North Pole, then the right answer is B, do you agree?
Rotational speed of the Earth at the Equator = 1666 km/h
Rotational speed of the Earth at the North Pole = 0 km/h
The question is this:
If we are at the North Pole, how come that the Moon is able to travel (apparently) in a direction East - West, at all?2. Now, let's see something else, look at this picture:
If the Earth rotated between 5am-7am and between 5pm-7pm you would move BACK (5pm-7pm) and FORWARD (5am-7am) with respect to the Sun, and between 11am-1pm, and between 11pm-1am you would move LATERALLY with respect to the Sun, that is to say, you would move LEFT TO RIGHT (11pm-1am), and RIGHT TO LEFT (11am-1pm).
The degrees of Sun's displacement in these periods would be drastically different if the Earth rotated!!!3. One question on ZIGZAG argument:
Let's suppose that you are astronomer-observer at some observatory which is placed at the edge of Arctic circle, and you observe Midnight-Sun or Noon-Moon.
If the Earth rotated you would have to slightly adjust (every few minutes or so) spatial orientation of your telescope from RIGHT TO LEFT (between 6am-6pm), and from LEFT TO RIGHT (between 6pm-6am). Right?
But it doesn't happen in reality!!!In reality you adjust spatial orientation of your telescope ALWAYS (24 hours during one Polar Day or one Polar Night) in the SAME direction! Right?
