Requiem for Relativity

I wanted to take a brief moment to thank Joe Keller for his use of support in his posts. I like it when a thought is backed by evidence. It is great to see the scientific method unfold before your eyes. Thanks,

<br />I was going to set two plates up on top of each other in photoshop, and blink one of them off and on, to check for movement.

That sounds very good, if one has the computer skills to do it. Inaccuracy of the images would cause all the stars to move, so one would be looking for something that moved much more than such background jiggle. Also, it would be good to double check that the image is the actual plate and not modified or reconstructed.

<br />If 10,800 B.C. is the date for a major holocaust (Younger Dryas-major upliftment/volcanism,possible polar shift) on earth due to the possible gravitational interference from the returning retrograde extreme elliptical orbit of a brown dwarf sister sun; then, a 3600 year period fits perfectly with a year zero (was star of David our sister sun?) and we would not see the so called planet X for another 1593 years.

Thanks for the interesting historical perspective. An ophthalmology journal once reported that because the fibers in the human lens are wound (like the mantle of a baseball) in three directions (for the human lens), a six-pointed star is the most accurate depiction of the scatter that an otherwise-perfect human eye observes.

To go back 60 years, I've specified seven overlapping disks to search. The first disk is centered at the above estimated present position, but I increased the radius from the above 17', to 21' for good measure. The disks grow to allow roughly for up to 5 degree orbital inclination.

Format:
center RA, center Decl, radius in arcminutes

The disks:
11h11m35s, -7deg00', 21'
11h12m59s, -7deg09', 23'
11h14m31s, -7deg19', 25'
11h16m11s, -7deg30', 28'
11h18m03s, -7deg42', 31'
11h20m07s, -7deg55', 34'
11h22m23s, -8deg09', 37'

Here's a robotic on line telescope www.telescope.org/index.php
