The 20 Minutes Lie

And The Lunisolar Precession Swindle
 
An enlightened astronomer, who wishes to remain anonymous, once noted:
 
"Since I have looked through a telescope for about 40 years (on and off), I think I have a good idea of what 50 arc sec means in spatial distance. When you look at the moon (1/2 degree of arc in full phase and actually MOVING in front of your eyes at high power due to earth's rotation), and when you look at double stars at 1-2 arc sec resolution at about 400 power, and planetary nebula that often measure 50 arc seconds across, you understand how little 50 arc sec is. Now, how [...] can the earth require an additional 20 min. of rotation at the end of one year to "line things up?" The proportion is way off. The 20 min. has to be a myth! But about three seconds seems right to me. Without your work I would never have realized this."

The 20 Minutes Lie & The Lunisolar Precession Swindle

In a precession cycle of about 25800 years (360° from pole star to pole star), the axis of the Earth moves at a rate of 50.26" (3.34 s) annually or 3600" (240 s) every 71.6 years away from the stars (1296000" ÷ 25800 = 50.26").

Authoritative science claims that, due to the supposed wobble of the Earth's axis (lunisolar precession), the rate of this sidereal motion represents a time period equivalent to about 20 minutes per solar year or 3.34 s per solar day.

How does science justify such a state-sponsored swindle?

.... By preaching the lie that with each precession cycle our Earth moves 360° backward in its orbit around the sun (31,556,925.97 s ÷ 25800 years = 1223 s/year or 3.34 s/day) at the rate of approximately one day every 71.6 years (86400 s ÷ 71.6 years = 20 minutes per year).

In other words, it is claimed that an angular measure of 15 arc seconds is equal to 365.24219878 time seconds instead of 1 second!!

Based on this lunatic belief, an observer would measure the Earth rotating as normal on its axis with a 0.00912 s rotation time difference relative to the stars at night and with a 3.34 s rotation time difference relative to the sun during the day. This is not a belated April Fool's Day joke, but the result of fools comparing apples with oranges.

According to our definition of time, the rate of precession (50.26" annually) does NOT affect the mean solar day. In order to understand this fact as clearly as possible, we shall use a very simple model to examine the two different explanations for the phenomenon called 'the precession of the equinoxes':

- the solar system is in orbit with another star

- lunisolar precession

Suppose we draw a straight line on a piece of paper. In the middle of that line we mark the position of the sun with a small x. At one end of the line we imagine a non-rotating earth with a fixed meridian and inclined axis in an equally fixed position of winter, for instance. Now we turn the paper 180° around, which represents exactly half a precession cycle. This action did NOT affect in any way our reckoning of time; i.e. mean solar-, mean sidereal- or calendar time. The earth neither rotated nor revolved any extra amount of time with respect to the position of the sun, as the entire solar system revolves in space. This implies that the tropical year is earth's actual 360° orbit period; i.e. the time interval for the absolute center of the earth to go 360° around the absolute center of the sun.

By using the same drawing we perform the other half of the precession cycle, but according to the lunisolar precession theory. In other words, we need to return the earth to its former location WITHOUT turning the paper or moving the sun in any way. By placing the earth at the other end of the line, we are going to return it to the initial position of winter. But what must happen time-wise, in order for the earth to reach this position? The earth itself not only needs to move half a revolution around the fixed position of the sun but must also make exactly half a rotation on its axis to realign the original meridian with the sun. This translates into one complete solar day per complete precession cycle. However, in reality our definition of time does NOT account for such a difference in solar time! How is this possible?

The advocates of the lunisolar model claim that the tropical year is less than a 360° orbit period. However, the mathematical equations and the definition of mean solar time have proven otherwise. In an attempt to reconcile mathematical and physical reality with the false theory of lunisolar precession, scientists have resorted to the following misleading explanation:

The assertion is made that the length of earth's 360° orbit period (the sidereal year for 1900.0) depends upon the adopted value of the precession*. Accordingly, the length of a sidereal year supposedly increases by an amount equal to the annual rate of precession (arc seconds converted to time seconds) multiplied by the factor 365.24219878.

Science has created an "extra time interval" for a 360° orbit that does NOT exist and CANNOT be measured in practice. The theory of lunisolar precession is therefore, the biggest misconception in the history of science.
