sun in wrong place...cant believe im even thinking it...tell me when i made the mistake....uk | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 29551069 United States 12/14/2012 04:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ok so i was putting the rubbish out for recycling and looked up to see the sun rising over the horizon...beautiful, stood freezing my tits off for a min looking at it when i realised that it was not in the east... Quoting: Nanna-Ree dont all start shouting at once, im probably wrong put it was def south east not east....i know where north is as i had an app on my last phone but i also have an old fashion compas too so ran into look for it and couldnt believe it...even got 17 y/o son to check it as he would understand it better as hes done 3 yrs at cadets and agreed... please explain the mistake i made to me as i have always been one to poohoo the whole sun moving pole shift stuff but got to say...im more than alittle shocked!!! beloved, this is shit. It is rising not to bad at all, its supposed to rise south east in the winter before solstice. I last saw it yesterday at rise, we had clouds today. as to where it is at high noon, about right too for this time of year as measured in my south facing window, but where sun beam shows on the opposite wall. We have had a small amount of axis shifting which may be putting buildings in front of rise or set and changing it slightly. |

Large earthquakes have been estimated to have shifted Earth's axis on the order of a few INCHES a the poles. This is nowhere NEAR enough to be seen by eye.

It is now winter. The sun should be in the southeast as far as I can tell. The sun is in the south east for me as well in the morning and I'm way down at 42 degrees latitude. In fact during the winter the sun would be slightly south even at the equator. Welcome to geography 101. With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 29871220 United States 12/14/2012 05:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Debunkers, those of us who are reporting significant changes in the location of the sun are well aware that it moves position throughout the year – that is precisely the point we are making. When a person has lived in the same house for a decade (or two in my case) watching sunrise and sunset, they know exactly where to look for it throughout the seasons. Many are seeing the sun now visible through new windows - or missing from a window entirely where it had previously been visible at a specific time of year, every year. Porches and decks that never got a ray of sunshine - ever - are now receiving direct sunlight. We are not experts in astronomy but we are certainly capable of critical observation. The phenomenon being observed by so many is that houses and decks do not move but the position of the sun has. The charts and measurements debunkers reference are simply failing to explain this. Scientific discoveries happen because brilliant minds want to know more about an observed phenomenon. They must question and think outside the box and experiment to find out why something is happening the way it is. This is how old scientific models are discarded for new ones. Instead of using stale Geology and Astronomy 101 information to disparage the abundance of empirical evidence being reported, why don’t those of you who claim to be knowledgeable in the field seek to think outside the box and figure out what could be causing these sun changes? |
