I was walking through a fielded pass to my house about 07:30 UT and was
totally taken aback seeing a meteor lighting up and slicing through Cygnus.

The area was perfect as it is in a hollow that has a most peculiar
arrangement
of trees and grassy area that blots out the surrounding streetlights that
are probably
at least 30 meters away.

I was so taken by the spectacle I said "thankyou" to the sky. I also felt
sorry for all
those people asleep in their homes or locked away for what ever reason and
didn't see what
I saw. A photograph stamped upon my mind.

Feel sorry for yourself,you imposed constellational geometry on a
meteor crashing into the Earth's atmosphere.

Like I said before, "a world class sack of crap." Not only fixated on
one long understood facet of our own solar system out of the entire
universe, but nasty to other people too. There. I won't allow myself
to be sucked in again. No more replies. Life is too short.

Life is indeed too short for the junk you people have dumped on
humanity as astronomy.You do not understand the reasoning behind the
greatest Western astronomical achievement -namely that the Earth orbits
the Sun between Venus and Mars.

Contemporary imaging and time lapse footage emerging from
astrophotography explicitly indicates that planetary orbital motions
are seen directly from Earth .The 23 images of Saturn and Jupiter taken
against the same stellar background -

It is when these images are assigneed a motion that the Copernican
insight comes to life -

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0112/jupsatloop_tezel.jpg

The easy to grasp conclusion is that against the background stars the
planets move forward,stop and go backwards (retrograde) while from an
orbitally moving Earth the outer planets have a slower forward motion
around the Sun than our planet thus affirming that the Earth orbits
the Sun.This is Copernican heliocentricity.

Newton got this wrong and because it not exists as the dominant
view,the careful work of the great astronomers now remains in ruins -

For to the earth planetary motions appear sometimes direct, sometimes
stationary, nay, and sometimes retrograde. But from the sun they are
always seen direct," NEWTON

Life is too short indeed !,how many generations of people could not
appreciate what Copernicus,Kepler and Roemer did because of a silly
attempt by a mathematician to understand the working methods of careful
astronomers.It costs astrophotographers absolutely nothing to change
their views to the correct Copernican reasoning or at least
ackknowledge that a catastrophic error occured to ruin the ability to
appreciate heliocentric astronomy.

The dominance of celestial sphere geometers and their concepts is one
of the great human tragedies ,we exist as the only civilisation on the
planet to butcher up the timekeeping system of our ancestors in order
to force everything into the calendar system and the convenience of the
Ra/Dec system.The magnificense of the celestial arena and man's
knowledge of the great cycles that make existence possible have always
been dear to the human heart stands in sharp contrast to what passes as
astronomy and timekeeping today.
