I think Polaris has shifted. It is no longer in my cross hair. Take a look yourselves. | |
Menow User ID: 908400 United States 03/10/2010 10:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I haven't watched the tilt or angle the stars are moving but I know where they should be at certain times. I've lived in the country my entire life. I work outdoors and can tell you the time of day within two minutes by where the sun is. At night I can do the same thing with the stars. I go outside at the same exact time every night to check on the cows. There is one constellation I look at when I step on my back porch as soon as I open my back door. It is off by about 30 minutes. I don't know what that adds up too in degrees of tilt for the earth or even what direction it is moving now. I haven't thought to look since the earthquake, but it is definitely off by a lot, I'd swear by it. Quoting: chuckufarleyAre you a BETTING man, Chuck? How about $1,000 U.S.? Thought not. |

Many people have noticed that during the past week something is wrong with our lean, and it is not the tinsy bit NASA or whomever is claiming the Earth's tilt or rotation has changed. We are leaning somewhat to the left, as one looks toward the Sun from the northern hemisphere during the day. Leaning, I might add AWAY from Nibiru, ala Planet X.

What's the RA and Dec of Polaris? That's a 12 degree displacement Az wise, and a 26 degree Altitute wise. Those on the payroll who have the assignment of claiming all is normal will scream otherwise, and tell you that you are incompetent. Quoting: ACI'm not paid to claim all is normal, I just know from experience that it IS normal. Want me to check again? Fine, I'll check again, but I have a very strong feeling you're wasting my time. Last time I challenged a zetatard on this claim, they were wrong: [link to www.ustream.tv] |

Yes I do blame the instrument but unless that scope is pier mounted and permanent in place this is something that must be reset every time you move the scope. Quoting: JimmyKI see you already checked and confirmed polaris is where it should be. Thank you. We can all breathe a sigh of relief (lol). I agree, though I'd like to add that having used a few permanently mounted scopes, you still need to redo the finder scope alignment all the time. The telescope itself should be able to track the motion of the sky and find polaris (if it has an appropriate drive system) just fine though. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 795135 United States 03/10/2010 04:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It isn't Polaris that shifted. It's the earth's axis that shifted with the Chilean quake. NASA publicly stated so. Quoting: Texas UncensoredIt will most likely also affect weather patterns. Close. Chilean quake caused by shifting pole via magneto-axial torque... Close. The axis changed slightly after the Indonesian quake. According the NASA, it changed again with the Chilean quake. This is not the magnetic pole we are talking about. Do you even have the first clue about how microscopically small a change NASA is talking about? Apparently not. |
