Anonymous Coward User ID: 74444 United States 02/25/2013 11:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No, what it means is I am familiar with the real terminology involved in doing the real calculations because I've actually done them. Quoting: Dr. Astro Then perhaps you can explain why I have no problem setting up a telescope and having it actually work as it is supposed to and you can't do it? If you have no problem setting up and using the scope, then you have already proved the Moon is moving as predicted. If your telescope can track it, it is moving in no unpredictable way at all. QED. Thanks for proving Astro's case (more than he already had!). I don't recall claiming a properly set up telescope will track the moon properly, it won't. Two years ago it would, almost. Excellent: an experiment! So, based on your claim, if a GOTO telescope is aligned ONLY with the stars, and tracks those fine, if you tell the GOTO to slew to the Moon, it will FAIL. Easy enough test. Do you agree with the premise? Any criticisms of the experiment? Almost no normal amateur astronomer has a permanent fixed mount for his telescope, meaning an alignment has to be done by a process known as mapping with each use. I went thorough this process every single night I set up my own telescope while I was involved in the hobby less than 12 years ago. Quoting: Anonymous Atrophysicist 1384202 Then why are you so *bad* at it? Never mind. Even if what you are claiming were true, it's *irrelevant.* Better yet, you don't understand why! And the process of aligning a scope is *not* mapping. Even telescopes fixed in solid bedrock need to be mapped nightly to obtain accurate auto location. This is because being a one hundred thousandth of a degree off will result in total failure, and the timekeeping system in use is not accurate enough to obtain accuracy to this degree, as has already been shown to you through professional references. Quoting: Anonymous Atrophysicist 1384202 You are *hopelessly* misunderstanding the references. Try reading them again. Slowly. Without nightly mapping the telescope will locate the Celestia object through the spotter scope then the main telescope must be fine adjusted. THIS IS WHY ALL MAJOR OBSERVATORIES WITH COMPETENT PEOPLE AT THE COM DO A NIGHTLY MAPPING RUN, WHICH TAKES UP TO AN HOUR DEPENDING ON HOW FAST THE TELESCOPE IS. Quoting: Anonymous Atrophysicist 1384202 Please show evidence of this remarkable assertion. Do you have any links to back you up on this? The computer can then track or find celestial obejcts after several objects are mapped. This does not in any wa indicate they are in the 'proper' places. noly that thye have not moved realtive to each other or in the case of the planets in an unexpected trajectory Quoting: Anonymous Atrophysicist 1384202 Of *course* it indicates they are in their proper places. If they are moving in 'improper' ways, the telescope cannot predict them. Why don't you understand this horribly simple concept? GOTOs make four basic assumptions. If *any* of them are wrong, the telescope will fail. The assumptions are: Earth moves at a predictable rate around the Sun, Earth rotates on its axis at a predictable rate, Earth's axis is fixed (at least as measured in years or centuries), and objects within the solar system move predictably according to Newton's Laws. Other than that, all a GOTO has is a set map in it's little electronic brain -- and that map has *no way* to predict or adapt to *any* unpredictableness in any of those assumptions. So, any criticisms of the GOTO experiment outlined above? |

Why am I able to accurately predict the moon's current position to within at least an arcminute using a book that was published 22 years ago, a decade before you were involved in the hobby? you will have to pardon me and I imagine anyone else able to access the thread Quoting: IDWOh, back on that unable to access thread BS because more people here disagree with you than agree with you? You do not speak for the people reading and participating in this thread. Most of them agree with me that you're the one who's full of it. They see that you're running away from my questions and they do not accept your pathetic excuses for doing so. Whereas you are unable to make these calculations, I have done so and I have presented them for everyone to see and use for themselves. If you were an expert astronomer you would be able to set up a telescope without permanently damaging it and voiding the warranty. Quoting: IDWI did. You are lying. I posted photographic and video proof as well a thread proving that you're a liar as well. You think you're terribly clever and can get away with lying. You think the ends justify the means, so you need to scare people into thinking something is "off" with the moon so that they'll "prepare." Part of doing that involves trying to discredit me, so you invent lies like this. The thing is, you're not clever, and there is proof right here of your lies: Yes, I can. Quoting: Dr. Astro [link to www.godlikeproductions.com] More pictures I took from the GLP observatory: Again, it works, it has been used by the members here, what they are currently working on with it has nothing to do with me. You have now been exposed not only as someone who can't do the simple calculations outlined above, but flat out lies when cornered. Prove those photos came from the GLP telescope. I happen to know it has NEVER worked You are such a liar! The proof is right there! [link to www.godlikeproductions.com] People all saw the scope in action. The videos from the live webcasts are all still right here: [link to www.justin.tv] You would also know that all major observatories do a nightly mapping run if they intend to locate multiple targets and that no amateur astronomer can auto locate a single celestial object without setting up his telescope using the procedure I outlined.. Quoting: IDWWrong. You latched onto that "mapping" term because of the quote I quoted from the paramount manual. Which clearly says it saves the alignment session to session with no additional synchronization. You don't even know what mapping is, you just latched onto the term because I used it. • Once a mapping run (page 47) has been completed, the Paramount ME can maintain extremely accurate pointing without additional synchronization." Quoting: Dr. Astro [link to www.ruf.rice.edu] This goes back to that part where you think you're clever. You're not. You're not even slightly intelligent. Your lies have now been exposed for all to see. You also wouldn't need to claim the work of others as your own, as in the photos you posted earlier. Quoting: IDWThat is my work. Ask Trinity. Ask SHR. They'll verify that. SHR himself saw me take and process those photos in person. Those were the work of professional astronomers, top notch scientists who knew exactly what thy were doing, Quoting: IDWOne astronomer. Me. An amateur astronomer. and not you, and the GLP telescope NEVER worked properly. Quoting: IDWLiar. You are such a liar! The proof is right there!
