Alan D., could you please explain your theory of a "spiral orbital path of the earth around the sun", and some background as to how you arrived at this theory?
Do you agree with this definition from NASA Knows? https://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstu...-orbit-58.html
An orbit is a regular, repeating path that one object in space takes around another one. |
Hello Moris
No, it is inadequate. 'a repeating path' does not define the nature of it the orbital path. 'a continuous path' would be less ambiguous, a repeating path could be interpreted as an orbital circle.
We find the science is, as always, reluctant to call the orbit a circle, for good reason. but at the same time same time they cannot, dare not say what it really is, a spiral. And they have good reason for this reluctance. The history of the farce goes bach 360 years. The only people who wouid dare to recognise Spiral planetary motion are those who have nothing to lose recognising the truth of it.
The repercussions following recognition of this truth are enormous, affecting far more than astronomy alone. Enough said. The question has to be asked to every astronomer is, do they think the earth's orbit is continuous spiral, if not what do they think it is? A simple question but a leads an amazing story.
Cheers Alan D.
