I may win a nobel for this: 'The sun and the moon are planet earth...IN PARALLEL DIMENSIONS...


Recommended Posts

It was staring us in the face all along, since Galileo's days, folks. 

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES.

THE STATISTICAL PROBABILITY.

THAT. 

The sun and the moon, when viewed from earth, appear to the human eye, EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE.....DESPITE BEING OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND DISTANCES FROM THE EARTH? 

Like....what natural law in the Grand Scheme of things, mandated that 'the sun and the moon must necessarily appear the same size, down to a pixel, to the human eye, when viewed from earth'?

Is there such a law in the science journals? Would be funny if there was. 

You see what I mean?

Why are the sun and the moon apparantly the same size? 

BECAUSE THEY ARE....

THATS NOT THE 'SUN' AND THE 'MOON...

THATS PARALLEL BLINKIN DIMENSIONS, EARTH, IN PARALLEL DIMENSIONS....

Because they happen to be at distances from the earth that their angular size is approximately the same. They aren’t exactly the same; the orbits are elliptical so the angular size varies. The moon’s orbit has changed over time, so this situation wasn’t always the case.

Yes, we're at a rather special time in history with regards to solar eclipses in that total, annular, and even hybrid eclipses can occur. In the past, the moon was too close for annular or hybrid eclipses to occur; and in the future, the moon will be too far for total eclipses to occur.
