Then you are not a physicist.

Physicists makes objective statements that are measureable and repeatable across different participants. I will trust water spilt on your pants over subjective views of “comfort” at take off any day.

He might be talking about frames of reference. For example our observation inside the frame are different from outside the frame.

Thanks for this article. There is disagreement as to what is causing the apparent alignment of the background radiation with the plane of the solar system, but still, it is an interesting development.

Yes, and Planck confirmed what the prior two satellites showed with finer detail.
 
I am not sure how that point allows Alpha Centauri to orbit earth every 24 hrs.

Is that observation an illusion of some sort?

Or is Dr W saying that even though the sun orbits earth the earth still rotates every 24 hrs on its own axis?

The Bible was afterall saying day and night is caused by the Sun rotating the earth every 24 hrs which Galileo denied. Galileo was surely right on this point.

The Planck data tells us the Copernican Principle may be wrong. The earth is in a special place. We could stop there, but

Relativity says that any center is OK. After all the physics and math heliocentrism has been disproven, Two are left standing, geocentrism and acentrism.

Philosophically we can be the center of the Universe and God’s creation.

Now, do the physics work? If the aether is real and very dense it may allow this. Once again, would a huge steel merry go round be able to have an end velocity of greater than 186K?

Remember, Einstein made up the cosmological constant to overcome the Michelson Morley and Airey data which showed the earth was not rotating. This was unacceptable to methodological naturalism and had to be overcome and why we have Einsteinian physics. Data is coming in that is challenging it. It must be considered. We go where the evidence takes us right?

Just looking for a simple yes or no.

In Dr W’s model are we to believe AC orbits Earth every 24 hrs?

I am not sure it is Dr W’s model. Others have proposed the same thing.

Short answer. Yes. The entire universe and what is contained in it revolves once every 24 hours.

Now, quantum physics - are the stars really there if no one is observing them? If that does not give you a headache…

Here is the other view:

The helical model - our solar system is a vortex


Think about this for awhile…

Admittedly this is Slate but Phil Plait at least knows his astronomy and had a handful of thoughts on that particular video.

I wish he would show us how it really is. DId he make a corrected video?

This is puzzling to those who maintain the Copernican POV. By itself, it does not show geocentrism of course, but assuming the data are correct, it apparently does give a special place to our solar system which is against everything taught in astronomy courses. I don’t see where the question raised by this observation has been solved to the satisfaction of most scientists today.

Paradigm shift…
 
Well, when Dr W can explain the massive accelerations centripetal and forces so as to satisfy basic Newtonian Laws which predict the outer rim should have ripped itself to pieces maybe then I will go for the more complicated mathematical model.

Until then I prefer to shave with Ochkam’s razor.
 
So when you can answer our concerns re the Physics of Dr W on the specific issue mentioned you will have something worth saying for most of us here.

Whether I answer them or not does not mean they haven’t been.
