The Sun is NOT Millions of miles away | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 66863754  United Kingdom01/09/2015 11:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The sun is actually no more than 500 miles away from earth. Here is how I can prove this: The sun is hot enough to glow yellow, so we can use Wien's Displacement Law to determine the temperature. Peak Wavelength in meters = displacement constant / temperature in Kelvin Yellow light has a wavelength between 570nm and 580nm, so I will settle in the middle at 575nm. Since we are working with nanometers rather than meters, we'll simplify the math by multiplying the displacement constant by 10^9. 575 = 2897768.5/T 575 * T = 2897768.5 T = 2897768.5/575 T = 5039.6° K (8611.6° F) So the sun is about 5039.6° Kelvin. Now, the average temperature of the earth is 59° F, or about 288° Kelvin. The mean temperature gradient of the troposphere is 6° K/km, so let's solve the distance. d = (5039.6 - 288)/6 d = 791.9 km (491.1 miles) There you have it in BLACK and White. The sun is roughly 491.1 miles away from us. Depending on the exact shade of yellow, whether it's closer to 570nm or 580nm, this figure could be off by as much as 5 miles.  __________________ |

(I do not support or deny this theory, just saying) That would make this earth the biblical hell . Constant striving after needs and pleasures and dreams and then dying with no counsel, nor truth, nor itinerary. Just recycled and recycled again, endless hell and purgatory. Bombarded with horror news headlines, murder and death, or hedonism and celebrities, Demonic news 24/7, but little about science, spirituality, progress. Were already in hell and trapped here. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 66823649 United States01/09/2015 11:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | One of the biggest arguments for electric sun theory is the atmosphere being hotter than the surface violates heat convection. Anyway.... |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 66837062  Portugal01/09/2015 11:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It always has been close. You see the heat from the Sun does not follow the Inverse Square Law because if the sun were a nuclear reaction, it would have to be further away than what "science" states. The reason why the sun gets hotter in the summer and colder in the winter is due to the light wavelength. It's closer to 570nm in the summer and closer to 580nm in the winter. You seem to "forget" that summer in the northern hemisphere is winter in the southern one and vice versa. How does the same wavelength affect the hemispheres differently? Hu? In fact the Sun is closer than we suppose but not in the way you suppose it to be closer. |

At this very moment it is winter in the north and summer in the south. Is the wavelength different to the north and to the south? |
