Only with present imaging can this topic be dealt with properly as
rightly understood there are two types of retrogrades which distinguish the motion of the inner planets from the outer planets. As the inner planets of Venus and Mercury swerve around the Sun they appear to move forward as they come from behind the Sun and then move in an opposite direction again st the background stars when hurtling in front of the Sun as they overtake our planet - http://www.masil-astro-imaging.com/S...age%20flat.jpg The retrogrades of the outer planets are different and the perspective of a faster moving Earth overtaking these planets generates the familiar forward-backward-forward motion - http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap011220.html Of course,these easily understood perspectives do not rely on a ridiculous empirical view that has no astronomical value whatsoever - "For to the earth planetary motions appear sometimes direct, sometimes stationary, nay, and sometimes retrograde. But from the sun they are always seen direct,..." Newton The misguided perspective of empiricists has proven far more difficult to overturn than a geocentric view as the nature of their agenda is homocentric by virtue that they reference everything against a rotating celestial sphere,however,the fertile ground of contemporary imaging is the real decider in what is true and what is not - it only takes people with a genuine love and feeling for astronomy and the celestial arena to make sense of different types of retrogrades using different perspectives of motion. |

These two sets of images demonstrate the subtle differences between
apparent retrogrades seen in the inner and outer planets and constitute pure astronomy and especially how the Earth's planetary dynamics grew out of the geocentric tradition - http://www.masil-astro-imaging.com/S...age%20flat.jpg The apparent motion of Venus against the background stars shows it swerving outwards and then inwards around the central Sun. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap011220.html The faster motion of the Earth overtaking the outer planets accounts for the apparent forward-backward-forward motion of these planets. Essentially this is pure astronomical enjoyment and requires no comment,contemporary imaging allows readers to distinguish the subtle differences in the motions of planets as seen from a moving Earth.No group of people have a right to alter human achievement and especially in the matter of retrograde resolution for they would curse the rest of the world the way they curse themselves by having no sense of satisfaction in properly interpreting the celestial arena and the effects on the Earth,it may be that they are incapable of entering into the spirit of astronomy and the line of reasoning which give the world so many insights to enjoy but there is no excuse for those who have the talent to intelligently work out what is presented here by virtue that it is astronomy being practised as it once was. |

So what if failed academics can't appreciate the sequential imaging or
the time lapse footage,a person with an affection for astronomy can instruct any student or interested adult as to what retrogrades are and what distinguishes retrogrades of the inner planets from retrogrades observed in the outer planets.Of course all observations and conclusions are made from a moving Earth and unfortunately the dominant empirical cult(ure) refuses to accept the logical and proper reasoning which judges solar system structure and planetary motions from the point of view of a moving Earth by opting for an idiosyncratic 'view from the Sun'. I welcome those who try to promote the Ra/Dec framework by virtue that it is a valuable addition to astronomy as long as nobody tries to justify the Earth's planetary dynamics using celestial sphere rotation and perhaps people will eventually deal with the matter as they have with the wandering analemma Sun which has already been dealt with effectively in demonstrating that sometimes there are just some observations that you don't need to justify. |

It doesn't seem long since Oriel36 said he was leaving the group. As I
have said before his mental health issues prevent him from doing so - he quite literally cannot help himself from posting minor variations of the same old rubbish again and again. Notice how carefully Oriel, over a period of some years, has avoided explaining exactly where his views and the views of other members of this group differ. He writes whole paragraphs - sometimes nultiple paragraphs - hundreds of times a year but refuses to explain something as basic as this. He also refuses to answer any questions designed to identify what the difference might be. As an example - Oriel, if you look due south at midnight on July 1st and again at midnight on January 1st of the next year will you see the same stars in the same places. Yes or no? |

For long enough I have complained that the work of our astronomical
ancestors is being ruined by taking the stellar circumpolar observation a step too far and as it is tied in with Newton's idiosyncratic absolute/relative time space and motion modeling agenda,it also works against retrogrades,their proper resolution and the differences in perspectives between the inner and outer planets,differences which can be settled easily with contemporary imaging. I was on an airplane today and marveled at what it takes to put a person in a seat in mid-air,not just the daily ins and outs of this process but the trajectory of historical and technical developments which rely on human ingenuity,what works and what does not.In the matter of planetary dynamics,timekeeping and terrestrial sciences there should be a similar approach - nobody should have to spend a decade explaining how the 24 hour AM/PM system and Lat/Long systems developed out of the calendar system and that ancient system itself used specific references which do not involve stellar circumpolar motion,that the fundamental unit of timekeeping is a proportion of days to years and its transfer to a dynamical equivalent of daily rotations to orbital circuits.It is not even this,it is now when there is so much visual information out there that requires proper interpretation,observers choose to remain with a barren late 17th century view that undermines the functioning interpretative faculties that we all possess. The readers in this forum had some intellectual capital by asserting the 'solar vs sidereal' ideology as it tried to retain astronomical references,albeit tangled and corrupt,yet they are now being ignored by the timekeeping crowd who still retain an Ra/Dec framework but assign an idealized 24 hour rotation in the year 1820 .Instead of commissioning an investigation which is not an exercise in damage control but rather a complete revisiting of all the principles involved in formatting the the artificial human timekeeping constructs from their natural occurrences,it seems that the community has taken the least attractive option of slipping into an intellectual oblivion by abdicating responsibility whereby astronomy disappears altogether as a productive discipline and taking terrestrial sciences with it. In the end somebody has to pick up the pieces and work towards creating a productive environment for I would not trust myself to fly on that airplane if any single link on the chain was corrupt or unreliable,likewise a decisive step must be taken surrounding astronomy. |

... For long enough I have complained ============================== without good cause, so just shut the **** up and learn. Begin by answering what you can observe for yourself. Do you see the same stars at midnight Jan 1 as you do at midnight Jun 1, thug? -- This message is brought to you from the keyboard of Lord Androcles, Zeroth Earl of Medway. When I get my O.B.E.
