If you ever get around to

doing something useful but as it is,you are just another sour
indiovidual with a cartoon view of the Earth's motions derived via
Flamsteed.

You know, everybody knows that, you're not telling us anything we
don't know.


Listen carefully,you learn first how the 24 hour day is created from
the inequalities of the natural noon cycle ,learn it from Huygens -

When you discover that the noon cycles are not 24 hours exactly you
will be undoing centuries of fiction based on the idea that the noon
cycle is 24 hours,the axial cycle is 23 hours 56 minutes 04 seconds
and the 3 minute 56 second difference represents the orbital motion of
the Earth -

We all know that the earth does not revolve around the Sun once every
365 days, and every 366 days every fourth year. The calendar in
standard use assumes thusly because it is convenient and simple to do
so for civil purposes.


The problem is the inability to follow the argument which Flamsteed
proposed in his ill-considered idea that the return of a star to a
location can be used to justify the axial and orbital motion of the
Earth.Listen carefully -

A star will return to a location in 23 hours 56 minutes of a 24 hour
day ONLY when the system is based on 3 years of 365 days and 1 year of
366 days.This means that justifying 4 annual orbital cycles of the
Earth within a 1461 day calendrical cycle does not and never has
worked.Despite the fact that all major institutions regard the axial
cycle as 23 hours 56 minutes 04 seconds,it requires the noon cycles to
be 24 hours exactly -

No need to bring that up again here.



There are another group of people known as 'creationists' who have
basic problems with the 24 hour cycle and natural phenomena and I am
not prepared to see this era continue to believe in utter nonsense
created by the unfortunate Flamsteed in his quest to use astrological
geometry to determine terrestrial longitude.
