" Of all the orbits in the heaven, however, the most remarkable is that of Mercury, which traverses almost untraceable paths so that it cannot be easily studied. There is the further difficulty that it generally follows a course invisible in the sun's rays and is observable on very few days. Yet Mercury too will be understood, provided that it is investigated by someone of superior ability. " Copernicus, Commentariolus (1509)

It is now well established that with satellite imaging, it is possible to observe the Sun as a central/stationary reference for the orbital motions of the planets with particular emphasis on the faster moving Venus and Mercury closer to the Sun than the slower moving Earth.

Not only is the 21st century modification a satisfying experience but it also compliments the work of those solar system researchers who were limited by being restricted to the surface which also rotates daily. With respect to his era, Copernicus was correct yet now with the C3 camera, all the restrictions are lifted as Mercury moves from right to left or from a morning appearance to an evening appearance. The stars of Scorpius are also in view as they transition from an evening to a dawn appearance soon due to the Earth's orbital motion.

He's back!

Hm, I had them ignored on the previous incarnation of Boards, makes me wonder if the ignore settings weren't brought forwards.

Either way, back to "ignore" for them now, utterly no point in descending to that level of idiocy again. One can show them the truth, but can't understand the truth for them. Only frustration available to the knowledgable.

One wonders if they're vaccinated, they share many characteristics with that particular group of idiots.

Those who are able to take advantage of imaging seen from a satellite tracking with the Earth around the Sun and minus daily rotational influences will come to enjoy the spectacle as Venus and Mercury runs their smaller and faster circuits behind the Sun and between our slower moving planet and the stationary Sun-

The true observer can be certain, without the slightest doubt, that the first Sun-centred researchers would have loved the modification which they were denied due to being daily rotational influences on their observations. It is, therefore, left for those who only appreciate the spectacle as something to be loved as I have loved those who first presented the reasons for a moving Earth in our Sun-centred surroundings-

"When a natural discourse paints a passion or an effect, one feels within oneself the truth of what one reads, which was there before, although one did not know it. Hence, one is inclined to love him who makes us feel it, for he has not shown us his own riches, but ours. And thus this benefit renders him pleasing to us, besides that such community of intellect as we have with him necessarily inclines the heart to love." Pascal

what do you mean here?

As the satellite tracks with the orbital motion of the Earth with the Sun as a central/stationary focal point, observers get to see the annual change in position of the stars parallel to the orbital plane due to orbital motion of the Earth which is normally swamped by daily rotational influences-

In short, we see the planets move as they actually do, whether they are moving faster or slower than our home planet.
