but the offset from Polaris to the north celestial pole appears to be off from the expected value by about 6 arcminutes

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29155775


We were fucked a long time ago. I can't believe how many people have not paided one bit of attention to anything around here.

I guess all the silly Suntards and Moontards were not so silly.

Thread after thread about the sun being in places in people yards and gardens that it hadn't before. Hundreds of those threads.

Sundials came up in those threads tons of times.

Everybody being ridiculed by the Gang Banger Astronomy guys around here. Insulted. Called Liers.

The sheep that just post without reading the information in the threads. Quick Quick and fast fast to post their dribble.

Poetic Justice. This is just the tip of the Iceberg. Its just starting and Earths rotational axis and Wobble are going to expand and get worse as we go along here.

The pictures going up ALL OVER FROM EVERYWHERE about THE OTHER CELESTIAL BODY IN THE NEIBORHOOD.

By December 21.2012 we are all going to SEE and KNOW. Wait and see.

"6 nautical miles"?? So now it has gone from 6 ARCMINUTES, to 6 DEGREES, to 6 NAUTICAL MILES in less than 24 hours?! No wonder the internet is a morass of confusion and misrepresented information!

Everyone, go spin a top.. Or shit, spin a coin.. They spin, and spin well for a short amount of time.. Spin true and fast with minimal wobble.. Then wait for it, as momentum slows, the slight wobble begins to increase, exponentially in fact, until said top/coin wobbles so much that the fall and cease their spinning..

Hmmm???

Assuming that Polaris is off by 6 degrees - what does that mean for us here on Earth in Layman's terms?

Thanks hf

Too funny, that's exactly what they were showing this morning on the weather channel - and all this week - it's so warm everywhere and almost no snowfall compared to normal - I think we have already been shifting plenty, and the climate of Mexico is now creeping up across the US. I moved this summer back to a warmer area of our county where I'd previously lived for 13 years - and I was SHOCKED at the intense, neverending heat and extreme high temperatures, along with high humidity. It was never this awful before, ever. Totally unbearable, couldn't even go outside for months, my entire container garden died, even with frequent waterings.

6 arcminutes = 1/10th of a degree. There are 360 degrees in a circle.

6 arcminutes is 1/10th of 1/360th of a circle.

This translates to about 6 miles of earth distance. So -- the earth has been jimmied about 6 miles off of where it should be, eh?

Astro - Your readings are off due to the nature of your telescopic setup.
 Quoting: Dr. PhD 23168991


That's possible and he's admitted that, which is why he wants to recheck useing a better set up.

Maybe this is all part of the reason why our ancestors used to migrate alot. to try and stay with the weather as climate zones changed location. who knows, probably nothing is wrong
