reply to neutral 22 as stated there are no two rings, just Polaris. This is evident on a star chart and with star trails all over the world. So I will reiterate a final time: the so called southern pole star is in the southern cross which is in the milky way.
No, the South Celestial Pole (SCP) is in the constellation Octans, not Crux.
If you watch the milky way (I'm betting you can pick it out on a clear night), it follows the same ecliptic as the sun and moon as if everything is fixed.
No, the Milky Way does not follow the ecliptic.
You would think the sun and moon would appear to travel differently as the moon is also moving counterclockwise around us according to modern science, and we are moving around the sun, but no, they look perfectly stuck along with the stars.
No, the Moon moves around the ecliptic once in about 29 days. The Sun appears to move slowly through the sky along the Ecliptic as the year progresses. That's why we see different constellations at night at different times of year. The same constellations that are up at midnight one night are up at noon half a year later, but we can't see them because the sky is so bright from the Sun.
watch this video from space.com: http://www.space.com/24324-breathtaking-night-sky-time-lapse-video.html
That's a pretty nice video. Notice that in the scenes pointing nearly due south, the stars are rotating clockwise; in the northern hemisphere, the stars rotate counterclockwise around the pole.
If you're in the southern hemisphere you shouldn't be able to see polaris hidden below the horizon. Conversely, if you are in the north you shouldn't be able to the southern cross.
If you're north of about 26° north latitude, you cannot see all of Crux, south of there, you can. This is because Crux is not located at the SCP; the southernmost part of it is about 26° from it.
I've posted evidence attesting that indeed you can see northern constellations and southern constellations from either hemisphere, and still only Polaris is circled or "ringed" by the stars.
Yes, you can see southern constellations from the northern hemisphere, but the further south they are, the closer to the Equator you have to be to see them.
No, the southern pole is also ringed by stars. Look at your
star trails photo from Tasmania.
Why would our northern axis be fixed to a star quadrillion miles away while our southern axis followed a constellation that is apparently in our galaxy and follows the path of our solar system?
The northern axis happens to point
near a relatively bright star now. It's not "fixed" to it in any way. You still seem to think Crux marks the SCP. It doesn't. All the stars that make up the familiar constellations are in our galaxy, but the stars are independent of, and quite distant from, our solar system.
All traveling unfathomable mph's, tilting, wobbling, and yet the stars and ecliptic paths remain the exact same, year after year?
The speeds are insignificant compared to the distances involved; they sound impressively large in a human scale, but we're working with astronomical scales here, so they're piddling. Wobbling? It's so slow it's hard to notice in a lifetime, and then only if you study this stuff. Why would the ecliptic change? It's the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. What would cause it to change?
a lie gets tangled the more it's woven, but depending on how entrenched the belief (or how unfathomable the alternative), it appears that the perpetual lies are still accepted. but when you start from the ground up, believing what you see instead of what you are told, the truth makes complete and simple sense. Occham's razor. Good luck on your journey.
Occam's Razor favors the spherical Earth and heliocentric solar system. Not only is it the simplest model, it's the only one that works at all. The rest of that paragraph is just rambling.
