Oh and Menow can eat crow on the aspect of this is "small" and "unnoteworthy" etc. Clearly, it was not: [link to arxiv.org]



You're talking about variations in what is an infinitesimal wobble relative to the aberrations alleged by Nancy Lieder.

In the context of the overall discussion it really is "small and unnoteworthy."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 969583



Looked pretty big and lasted almost a year.
And scientists commented, too.
<shrug>

Oh, and I never followed Nancy on this stuff. Except to see if there was perhaps a tug on us physically electromagnetically at any point, and this could be one. Even a small tug, even if it's happened before as a stop-anomaly in 1850, might indicate some mechanism of what she said. But it wouldn't have to be literal stuff to the level she says.

Anyway, just testing all hypotheses, of course.

What specifically "looked pretty big" and how are you measuring "pretty big"?

The other guys here know a lot more about this than me, so jump in and correct me, but what are we talking about here?

Amplitude variations measured in milliarcseconds?

Nancy talks about the Moon and Sun being visibly in the wrong place and the Earth being stopped in orbit and being bobbed up and down by aliens.

How is even a major variation in the extremely insignificant Chandler Wobble even remotely relevant?

Re: Debunker Talk LIVE Chat 24/7 - A debunker's paradise!!
Final for anyone on Moon spin:

1. spin relating to its static OR own movement forward (real proper spin)
2. rotation around another point (your confusion) which completes a complete re-orientation through the axis
3. the final relativity/perceptual complexity of forward motion around the Earth while also rotating around another point -- e.g. the Sun -- thus seeming like real spin (the astronomers' misnomer):

Spin relative to rotation is "spin on an axis" in the strict sense. This means without trajectory or with trajectory. The Earth has this. The Moon does not.

Rotation around its axis, which can be collapsed and drawn as "spin" is a different and conflated concept.

To its own trajectory, it always faces forward.
And over the movement of the whole system forward (the Earth-Moon) around the Sun indeed it looks like a spin, not a turn, which is what the astronomers were technically misnaming as spin when it's rotation looking like spin then -- but you aren't even there, since you're quibbling over when the Earth is depicted stationary (except barycentre). And in THAT model, you can clearly see its face is always forward on its path, just turning on the path 180 degrees through the axis orientation. But if you stop the movement forward on the circle, there's self-referenced spin.

Get it?

I would be interested in just how `large' this electromagnetic' force would be, Clare

ie what strength electromagnetic field would be required to move a certain mass by a certain amount, and if you think that electromagnetic force would be `felt' or even measurable by anything on earth...

nice firm numbers would be appreciated...

Re: Debunker Talk LIVE Chat 24/7 - A debunker's paradise!!
Just so there's no confusion about my use of the word "days" and the fact that we're discussing the rotation rate of the earth, I'll change it thusly:

At some point in the future, the earth will become tidally locked to the sun, as Mercury is now. That means that the earth, spinning at a rate of once every 24 hours now, will gradually slow to a rate of once every 8760 hours, so that one side will always be in sunlight and one side in darkness.

When it slows to one rotation every 240 hours, is it still spinning? Yes or no?

When it slows to one rotation every 2400 hours, is it still spinning? Yes or no?

When it slows to one rotation every 8760 hours, is it still spinning? Yes or no?


Jerk.
It's spinning relative to orbiting the Sun if it circles the Earth AT ALL.

It is never spinning relative to the Earth, a perceptually fixed system upon which its spin relies but which only becomes an axial spin when one ADDS forward motion.

You could extrapolate that -- oh wait! I already said it. SPIN ALWAYS (relative to Sun) when FORWARD MOVEMENT (relative to Sun) in a circular (Moon) or fixed (Earth) axis relative to FORWARD MOVEMENT relative to Sun.

But take out forward movement, no spin. Thus, no spin relative to Earth, because its orbit and its axial orientation are consistent. As its Earth-orbit moves forward and to the right or left or straight, the Moon's axial orientation stays perpendicular to that new direction.



Your further evasion is noted.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 558013



I note that Clare once again evaded answering these very simple questions.

(personally I think the zetatards if they arent trolling- would need an oxygen mask if they did actually think- because a single brain cell cant say `breathe' and think at the same time....)

if the zetas various `mustooks' over the years (as told by nancy) were added up- it's apparent that far from being 300+ IQ aliens- they would be more like 3-IQ aliens

(Hey they still apparently haven't got the concept that if you have 1 (one) apple and I take it off you you will have how many apples????)

YIKES!

How are we going to get to the issues around electromagnetism and PX and NASA and discovery if we can't get this part straight? I know we are ALL learning here, but really, this is not a "factoid" fact which someone could know or not have heard of. This is a clear item about the Moon which EVERYONE knows. Does it show multiple faces? NO. It shows a slight different viewpoint in Libration, but it does not SPIN/rotate (its own axis), it ORBITS/rotates on an axis centred in the Earth. Yes, it is at a different rate than the Earth so it truly is an ORBIT, not just a fixed orbital position. But it doesn't SPIN itself.


Your true colors are really shining through now.

"Radical Doubt" for centuries of confirmed scientific observation of the universe but ZetaCult bullshit dogma is "a clear item about the Moon which EVERYONE knows."


Yours are.

If the Moon ROTATES completing a spin around ANOTHER axis (which is what it does), it is not considered to spin around its own.
 Quoting: mclarek 971744


Still stubbornly repeating the same nonsense and refusing to acknowledge anybody else's points or thought experiments... exactly as Nancy would do. Some of your OWN exmples have proven you wrong and I and others pointed that out. Of course, you ignored that, and each and every other point I made to you, including about 3 repeats of my question:

What motions would the moon display if Earth suddenly went missing?

I have no further desire to have a 'discussion' with someone who doesn't have the courtesy to acknowledge the existence of posts/points directed to her.

I'm out.

You have confused this total rotation with its axis always pointing in direction of motion, and happening to complete a circle instead of some other figure or straight line, with actual SPIN relative to its rotation, which would remain even if it were not moving forward.
 Quoting: mclarek 971744


One more note, to demonstrate that although "Clare" has been patiently corrected on her terminology, she persists in randomly mixing and matching terms in a confusing way. How can a body's 'spin' be relative to its 'rotation'? Since "Clare" will ignore this attempt at 'clar'-ification as she has done with all the others, it is a waste of time to attempt any discussion with her.

THUS:
If the forward-curve motion around the Earth's barycentre, also combined with the forward movement OF that barycentre along the orbit around the Sun WERE STOPPED, the Moon would exibit no self-referential ("proper") spin on its axis.
In this sense it does not spin on its axis as does the Earth.
 Quoting: mclarek 971744


It is truly exasperating to watch "Clare" expound like this and claim to have proven something, when her examples actually prove her wrong. If Earth and Moon were suddenly stopped in their common solar orbit, and the Moon also suddenly stopped orbiting Earth, the Moon would be sitting still in space(ignoring motions of the entire solar system, etc) and would BE ROTATING ONCE IN ABOUT 29 DAYS, AS IT IS NOW.

So N*ncy's abandoning GLP?

Don't get your hopes up. Remember that after she and her minions took full control of her tt-watch and things got dull, she and her minions would make forays onto sci.astro to gin up interest. Zetatalk spam was the norm on many different venues.

It seems Nan can't stand not being the centre of attention on a larger scale than a cloistered echo chamber provides.
She doesn't like dissention but when she arranges a zeta concentration camp she finds it too dull.

She'll be back, along with her drones, spamming GLP with her latest words of wisdom and zetatalk.com and .ning links.

Seen it all before.

Re: Debunker Talk LIVE Chat 24/7 - A debunker's paradise!!
OK, Clare, here is one more thought experiment for you.

Let's say we have a stationary body in free space...a relatively small planetoid 100 miles in diameter. It rotates on its axis at a rate of once per hour as witnessed by any external viewpoint being able to see all of it's surface features over the course of one hour. By your definition, is that body spinning? Yes/No?

Now, due to a gravtational tug from a distant body, it begins to move forward in space in a straight line at the rate of 1000 miles per hour. By your definition, is that body still spinning? Yes/No?

As that body is travelling, it passes by a massive planet and its path is curved until it is caught in orbit around that planet with an orbital period of 1000 hours. By your definition, is that body still spinning? Yes/No?

Over time, the tidal forces in the smaller body from the larger body cause its rotation to gradually slow until its rotational period comes into synchronization with its orbital period and from that point on it shows only one face to the large planet. By your definition, is that body still spinning? Yes/No?

If you claim no, exactly when did it stop spinning?
