Tycho connected them with a quasi-geocentric system with the three
inner planets circling the Sun unfortunately it meant that Mars would
intersect the orbit of the Sun under the Tychonian system

Newton was quasi-geocentric in a much more damaging way.In the
Scholium IV of the Principia, which is the basis of much of the early
20th century concepts,only in definiting absolute/relative time does
he venture into a definition that is not his opinion but was a
commonplace mathematical bridge between the natural unequal day and
the 24 hour clock day - the Equation of Time.

The reason for the awful acceptance of axial rotation through 360
degrees to 23 hours 56 min 04 sec generates the notion of axial
rotation to absolute space and to subsequently to aether, from there
into the MMX  and then you know what happened in 1905 .It does not
seem to bother anyone that Newton did not consider a medium in
formulating his ballistic agenda so if a medium played no part in
definitions of time,space,place and motion then what do those
definitions represent ?.

In short,Newton went to a lot of trouble insofar as he made things as
ambiguous as he could,to shift the focus from mean orbital distances
drawn through the center of the planet's orbit to mean Sun/Earth
distances,mathematicians might not care but it locks everyone into a
geocentric/heliocentric orbital equivalency that nobody today would
want.

Relativity is just giving up and making everything homocentric.Like
the complaint of a nobel prize winner twenty years ago that
mathematics has gone from being a tool to describe nature to where
theorists think mathematics is nature itself !.

Sergev,out of respect for the difficulties that both of us face in
approaching this matter and that it would be an endless task to see
ourselves clear to furthering something new,it is almost required to
go back to Keplerian motion and see what we have from 21st century
perspectives and basically leapfrog Newtonian ballistics as a basis to
build on.

In the mid 19th century they were facing enormous difficulties insofar
as they had no difficulties with the Sun attracting the Earth without
a mediun but they had great difficulties with the Sun illuminating the
Earth without one.This was a direct result of the unauthorised
astronomical format inherited from Newton where axial and orbital
motion was combined into a single sidereal motion.The benefits of that
unauthorised procedure is that independent axial rotation is hidden
away in orbital motion and forgotten  about but as you see it turns up
everytime you wish to consider how light behaves by using the concept
of a medium.Ultimately the homogenisation of axial and orbital motion
causes such severe obstacles that they are worth dropping.

The purely mathematical mind finds anything other than axioms to be
intolerable whereas the intuitive mind does'nt need them.Time,space
and motion are not so much things to be defined as they are a canvas
upon which all happens.What was unnerving,and for many years,was that
Newton appeared to be defining the difference between the natural day
and the 24 hour clock day normally as the Equation of Time but cross
referencing it with his format for determining Keplerian motion from
mean Sun/Earth distances displays a truly awful procedure in
converting Flamsteed's stellar circumpolar/axial rotational
equivalency to a geocentric/heliocentric orbital equivalency.

In short,with the Baconian view of beginning with doubts and moving to
certainty and applying it to Newtonian mechanics,everything withers
ahead of it,the astronomical format is all wrong,it introduces a
fishbowl universe,relevent insights are lost beyond recovery and it is
not possible to consider the nature of light,magnetism and
incorporating greater motions and their affect on planetary
heliocentric motion and these just to mention a few of the  obstacles.

You do not help your own cause insofar as you alone  can accept what
Newton said or follow Albert who attempts to tell you what Newton
said.All that bulltalk of action at a distance.

"I likewise call attractions and impulses, in the same sense,
accelerative, and motive; and use the words attraction, impulse or
propensity of any sort towards a centre, promiscuously, and
indifferently, one for another; considering those forces not
physically, but mathematically: wherefore, the reader is not to
imagine, that by those words, I anywhere take upon me to define the
kind, or the manner of any action, the causes or the physical reason
thereof, or that I attribute forces, in a true and physical sense, to
certain centres (which are only mathematical points); when at any time
I happen to speak of centres as attracting, or as endued with
attractive powers. "

http://members.tripod.com/~gravitee/definitions.htm#time

If you substitute 'geometrical' for 'mathematical' in the above
passage the whole thing becomes clearer and to be fair to Newton,there
is absolutely nothing to indicate a justification of Albert's
contention -

"It was Newton's theory of gravitation that first assigned a cause for
gravity by interpreting it as action at a distance, proceeding from
masses. Newton's theory is probably the greatest stride ever made in
the effort towards the causal nexus of natural phenomena. And yet this
theory evoked a lively sense of discomfort among Newton's
contemporaries, because it seemed to be in conflict with the principle
springing from the rest of experience, that there can be reciprocal
action only through contact, and not through immediate action at a
distance."

 http://www.mountainman.com.au/aether_0.html

It is just easier to follow Newton's line of reasoning as he goes on
to define time,space,place and motion in the Scholium than follow the
fabrication of the early 20th century.I assure you Newton's
definitions are far more interesting in what they conceal rather than
what they reveal.

For mathematicians Newton is a genius but given the astronomical
damage done in order to get his ballistic theory to work from 17th
century observations there is a case for shading off into a genius of
opportunism.People who are incapable of dealing with the unauthorised
astronomical procedure Newton slipped in,by shifting the value of
axial rotation from the principles of the 24 hour clock day to the
principles of 23 hours 56 min 04 sec,are also incapable of
appreceating why aether/relativity arguments will always be circular
within the 17th century error.

Kepler's second law ,which suffered most from the reduction of mean
orbital distances through the center of planetary orbits to Newtonian
mean Sun/Earth distances, provide the basis for understanding the
onset of ice ages.Northern hemisphere summers are longer during an ice
age while simultaneously Southern hemisphere winters are more brutal
hence the engine for glaciation.

You can actually see it for yourself in the above animated exaggerated

it simply is not worth it.

Again,this is where the damage is done in drifting between
astronomical formats to experiments within human experience.For
decades they have given up the pretence of seperating illusions of
planetary and wider cosmological motions from their actual motions and
have taken up the habit of pasting gravitational solutions directly on
to observation contrary to Copernicus,Kepler et al.

To keep things current,Keplerian motion is better explained by
incorporating the influence of galactic orbital motion of the solar
system on planetary heliocentric orbital motion than keeping all
motion isolated to the solar system.Because Newton has set up a
geocentric/heliocentric orbital equivalency,you are locked into that
view and to all intents and purposes the rest of the universe may as
well not exist whereas incorporating the galactic orbital motion is
more productive in determining why axial rotation is constant and
orbital motion varies in terms of Kepler's second law and further into
long term variations,why axial orientation is the way it is and why
the perihelion advance of Mercury owes its existence to the solar
system's galactic orbital motion.

Well the relativists are always going to stick you the mechanistic
Newtonian view and rightly so and it appears you make no attempt to go
back to that Newtonian view and determine that it is Newton causing
the problem with a medium necessary to consider light as a
wave.Between Newtonian  absolute space and absolute time you are
losing the argument,not in that these things are important to me but
the relativistic arguments are built on the Earth's motion to an
aether Newton did'nt consider and absolute time which is where Newton
made that momentous and awful switch.

Sergev,it will always be a rigged argument,I have little heed in late
19th and early 20th century concepts for they are overheated concepts
in the absence of the observational insights that made their
appearance in the late 1920's.Basically,if galactic structure and
motion was not big enough to alter things conceptually I do not know
what is but when galaxies were discovered they simply changed the
'fixed stars' everywhere to galaxies everywhere and kept on talking as
if nothing happened.

It is more graceful to incorporate the solar system's galactic orbital
motion as an influence on heliocentric planetary motion both Keplerian
and long term variations than keeping all motion within an isolated
solar system as the sole influence.

Primarily,the astronomical records of these variations are maintained
in climatological records via geology and glaciation rather than
attempting to view astronomy by looking directly into the 'past' ala
relativity.In this respect,a long term orbital variation apart from
annual Keplerian motion facilitates a more reasoned view on the Sun's
solar output which remains constant through an ice age,whatever other
advantage their arises is secondary but ultimately it is making that
shift to a greater galactic axis of rotation while retaining the
dominance of heliocentric planetary motion would upset those who wish
to retain the 17th century stance.

It is difficult to defend someone who begins definitions by stating
that the 'vulgar ' do not understand time,space,place and motion and
then goes out of his way to be as ambiguous and tangled as
possible.Nobody really comments on the Scholium IV and that is just
what Newton wanted for who would want to admit to being vulgar.It was
an effective ploy for Newton and it certainly worked until another
opportunist came along with a better line of bulltalk.

Which is why you will never find yourself clear to discuss the
properties of light,magnetism if you wish to consider a medium.Taking
Newton at face value in making no attempt to make astronomical
translations from geocentric to heliocentric and attributing
everything to 'gravity' must have looked great in his era but it
remains a poorly constructed ballistic theory that leaves you blind
when it comes to Roemer's insight on finite light distance among other
things.What would have looked like a decent attempt to explain
planetary orbital motion in the 17th century now looks like a
reduction of planetary motion to terrestial ballistics and that Sergev
appears like intellectual greediness.

To understand what went wrong in the 20th century and why theorists
today now think nature is mathematics, a more dignified approach must
be taken to Newton's Principia and a mindset entirely indiffent to
hagliographic concerns.Most are too intimidated or too in love with
calculus to bring the astronomical structural framework Newton used in
determining mean sun/earth distances and which destroys your
electromagnetic concerns which would otherwise be perfectly
reasonable.Again,all operating within the same mistake,originating at
Flamsteed and built on by Newton.

The Roemerian insight of finite light distance is tiny at a local
level but would be enormous at intergalactic scales,here again there
is no room to move within the celestial sphere which is a consequence
of the astronomical framework inherited from Newton.Astronomers
determine galactic coordinates by using constellations which are
features of axial rotation and orientation to Polaris,an illusion in
other words and a fishbowel illusion at that.

Moving on to the changing orientation of local Milky Way stars to the
remaining galaxies,it is possible in principle to determine via
supernova data the actual positions of galaxies to each other and to
us from apparent positions determined by finite light distance otr the
Equation of Light as it was once known.It is a huge cosmological
jigsaw puzzle but if the wrong figure axial rotation of the Earth is
accepted as it is using the Newtonian astronomical framework there is
very little sense in taking it further.

They are modelling crustal development from a flat and stationary
Earth while I point out the Equatorial bulge determines astronomical
origins for structural features.Somehow astronomical/terrestial
motions mesh due to the different stresses between constant
axial,variable orbital and long term orbital variations but like
physics counterparts,these concerns are set aside for multiple
universes,clashing branes,strings and other exotica.

It cannot always be attack,even if you see an assault on the
astronomical format of Newton,it turns out the constrictions of that
format are all part of the same thing,for me as for you.I do not
attempt to tell you what you wish to hear for you have your dignity
and I respect that but how far are you willing to go to uphold a 17th
century view that caused more trouble than it was worth.

Yes,yes I understand the problem and relativists beg you to follow
them down into their absurdities and too many oblige.Warped with
respect to what but not it becomes an irritation with the only
attribute that they have as much originality as a ham sandwich while
appearing to be discussing 'profound' issues.The whole relativistic
thing is as novelistic as the day it was conceived and it ends in the
same way.

Look Sergev,there is a force to keep the Earth orbiting the
Sun,another 'dark force' keeping the stars moving round the Milky Way
and another making the galaxies fly apart,it is easier for me to
consider smaller rotations within bigger rotations and leave the
mechanism for these rotations aside.It must have been great in the
early 20th century to talk of 'warped space' for orbital motion but
when the greater galactic rotational motion showed up never mind the
intergalactic motions,most of what was conceived in the 1910's should
have been jettisoned let alone that it is still feverishly
'discussed'.

Making things go faster is what got men into a lot of trouble a
century ago,to me it makes no difference and less so when it is just
easier to incorporate greater rotations which have been left
unattended for 80 years.

To be precise,it is the solar system's galactic orbital motion with a
line drawn through the center of the Sun galactic orbital path,just as
astronomers calculated orbital motion through the center of the
planet's orbit rather than Sun/Earth distances favored by
Newton.Basically it is unlocking that galactic orbital path and
determining influences on the planets at a distance from the central
orbital galactic orbital path centered on the Sun.

Ah Sergev,yours is a lonesome endeavor.All the effort is given today
not to prove Einstein right but to prove that men have'nt been wasting
their time chasing rainbows.The stakes are now so high that even if
they get the result they want that it won't make the slightest bit of
difference to the wider world who have long since stopped
listening.There was a time when men would fall mute at the mention of
gravitation or time travel but today's concerns are not those of
decades ago and you can only tell people for so long that they won't
understand nature even as they are a part of it.The result is now two
forms of fundamentalism and  I genuinely feel sorry that even if your
efforts are excellent,the prevailing atmosphere is so poisoned that
good or bad,any new insight will be lost in the babble.As Yeats
said,the worst now have the most conviction with nobody around with
the temprement or the courage to call a halt and especially the
anonymous institutional representatives of science.

Yes indeed,it is remarkable that the human spirit will overcome the
most stubborn obstacles and manage to get something done just as life
survives even the worst natural catastrophes and goes on.Unfortunately
men now impose obstacles on each other and for almost nothing,a man's
opinion a century ago and the ability of men to grasp that he put the
universe into the hands of men who operate by equations.The universe
will tell its own story and in its own way,that much I do know Sergev.

We receive up until recently a very slanted view of human history and
certainly in the physics arena it would appear that before the Greeks
everyone was brandishing cudgels and wearing pelts.It is though a
background history emerges that is more satisfying than the sterile
trajectory that puts mathematicians in the best light as though they
were the summit of reasoning when the Greeks themselves admitted that
their knowledge was fragmentary from earlier civilisations and
especially in astronomy and geometry.They were just the first to write
things down.

The tool has now become the object and that Sergev is what faces
me,you and everyone else,as I mentioned earlier,the nobel lauriate
mentioned 20 years ago  that the theorists were beginning to think
mathematics is nature rather than the tool it once was and certainly
he was prescient in those remarks.

Newton wrestled to get mean orbital distances to fit mean Sun/Earth
distances,while chunks of this can be salvaged there is too much
astronomical damage otherwise insofar as orbital motion is framed
within a geocentric/heliocentric orbital equivalency.What parts to
save and what not is not my area but this is hardly possible where men
languish in relativistic homocentricity and dispute it as a valid
concept when it is little more than a cartoon.

That's the price Sergev,choose Newton's mechanical program and you
bind yourself to the validity of 17th century conceptions of the role
the rest of the universe plays,in Newton's case - none .

"Cor. 2. And since these stars are liable to no sensible parallax from
the annual motion of the earth, they can have no force, because of
their immense distance, to produce any sensible effect in our system.
Not to mention that the fixed stars, every where promiscuously
dispersed in the heavens, by their contrary actions destroy their
mutual actions, by Prop. LXX, Book I."

In our time there is little room to set these things out as I  would
wish even with great graphics availible and besides most people have
difficulty with the way I express things as though it were an unknown
language.In this respect I thank you for being the gentleman that you
are, for somehow you will realise that this  perspective is done
almost in an isolation that is and always was intolerable.If
anything,there emerges a more intimate relation to surroundings,either
astronomical or terrestial than when I began with now only humanity
the mystery and that is not bad at all.

For one thing,it is a major achievement to continue a thread without
the descent into invective and one line statements and if anything it
shows that views can be discussed without falling into the trap of
namedropping and namecalling,pity Sergev that there are not more
participants of your calibre who can move beyond the slogans and
mantras.
