The Babylonian's did have the same Model as did the Chinese as did the Sumerians; that is reality.
Your Strange Heliocentric Religion is False.
So what? That doesn’t matter in the least. If you would actually read the Canon you’d know that none of that matters and not completely accurate.
The problem is the Saros is a bit short for long term prediction. That’s where the Inex cycle comes in; which the cycle used by Hipparchos. A Greek astronomer and mathematician credited with early spherical geometry and believed in a spherical earth...so there’s that.
Early 20th century works combined the Saros & Inex cycles into the Saros-Inex Panorama. When combined they become a better predictive tool. e.g. A new Saros cycle will start an Inex cycle from the beginning of the previous Saros cycle.
The Saros-Inex Panorama is the time predictive tool and even that is modified by the variations is orbits and positions of the Sun, Moon, and Earth. One thing the Saros cycle never did and does not now predict the path, only the periodicity at a given location. The path of the shadow and modifications to the timing are all calculated on a heliocentric celestial coordinate system...NASA’s numeric model.
While, explanation of the big picture analysis is accurate, I’m sure I don’t have the details exactly right but you clearly have a lack of understanding how the Saros cycle was used originally and how it’s use today in modeling eclipses.
BTW, stop calling it my “heliocentric religion”. I’m a Christian and don’t worship the Sun. Be respectful of other’s religious beliefs.

The Ancient Babylonian Saros system can predict Eclispes 1700 years into the Future.
It can predict eclipses out longer than that so what’s your point? The fact is, It gets less accurate the further out you go.
It’s interesting that’s the only response you can come up with relating to my explanation of how NASA uses the Saros cycle; which just goes to show that I've proven your assertion that NASA eclipse predictions are based on FET is not only wrong but that you also have very little understanding of the Saros cycle and the Canon.
You are NO Christian if you are a Heliocentric.
Psalm 93:1: "Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm ."
Matthew 6:24
"No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Mammon".
Your Strange Heliocentric Religion is False.
You do not get to tell me what I believe. It is a fact that the Bible never actually says the earth is any particular shape. That’s just your interpretation.
Nor does the Bible say anything about a belief in a coordinate system for the salvation of one’s soul. Intolerance, how you treat your fellow man, and forgiveness of others on the other hand...
For you to equate my belief in a spherical earth to worship of a false god or Satan is just plain wrong. You are NOT God. You do NOT get to judge me.

I have said many times that I'm saving the Ancient Babylonian Saros cycle for another thread as it warrants more of my time.
Let's look briefly at the facts :
The Ancient Babylonian Saros cycle can accurately predict Eclispes thousands of years into the future that is time and position and duration.
Even you admit that NASA's system is based on the Saros .
You Claim the Saros is less accurate than NASA's system unfortunately me and you will not be able to verify this if where fortunate we could live to a 100 not 2000.
So NASA which is a high tech "Space"
agency has based it's model for Eclispes on a system that is over 4000 years old who's creators believed in a flat earth.
Lol.
Lol.
You Heliocentrics really do under estimate people's intelligence.
Nasa have retrofitted their mathematics to the Saros cycle.
The Bible quite clearly says many times the Earth is firm and immovable.
You should pay particular attention to the word" immovable"
The Bible does not say the Earth spins rotates and wobbles through space at 70000 mph.
The Bible also says the Sun and Moon are the same size.
This makes your Heliocentric model an abomination.
As it goes against God.
So you believe in a model that goes against the word of God.
Now let's have a look at the "Law"
Commandment 9
You should not lie or give false testimony.
You also defend and tell others this Heliocentric model is the truth even though you have never seen it.
(False testimony)
So I will tell you again.
YOU ARE NO CHRISTIAN
Your Strange Heliocentric Religion is False.
