No. I don't like to start trouble, I like to get the facts straight. The Moon does mess with precession. But precession has nothing to do with obliquity.
But i know you know this you just ike to start trouble and thats why i like you.
The other planets do affect obliquity and without the Moon our obliquity would not be as stable as it is because of the influences of the other planets. This is a fact. Without the Moon the Earth would roll around like a ball with its obliquity varying from 0º to as much as 85º. The north pole actually could end up pointing nearly at the Sun. Almost the entire southern hemisphere could be in darkness all year round.
That is what the idea of the Moon being so necessary to the evolution of life is based on. With such dramatic changes in climate it is unlikely that life could have evolved beyond simple forms.
But when someone sat down and actually crunched the numbers it became clear that those "excursions" of obliquity could take a very long time. Longer even than the lifetime of the Sun, leaving plenty of time for stuff like us to evolve.
Read the paper. You might find it interesting.

Hence while prograde rotaters can have their rotational precession enter into resonance with orbital precession, under
most circumstances retrograde rotaters cannot.

if this alien race has been around for
over one million years.
then they could move stars.
Science to a level that it is indistinguishable from God.
Thanks

Good post.
what ever them lot say!
Thats quite likely. Maybe thats the
buddha
their could be a mathematical pattern
that will let us find some thing to help us
reach a level that will help us advance.
but I would say all the planets will be used!
and maybe the nearest stars.

And they had time to do it!
and with the planet drift
so that it will be ready when we are.

So from what I understand, you are saying that the proof of aliens lies in the possibility that they not only exist but created our solar system?
I believe in ET but can't get behind this.
Interesting thread tho. Thanks
Peace
Hi Jude.
Assuming everything in the op were accurate, would you still say you cant get behind it? Would you not think thats all just a bit too much?
Would it help if I said it was proof of god? Being serious.
Actually I was serious and apologize if it looked Different.
1. I would hazard the universe is full of mathematical coincidences that we aren't even aware of yet. Just in our own World, take the Fibonacci numbers for instance: www.maths.surrey.ac.uk...
2. If the thread was titled "Proof of God"...I would have given it a pass.

THIS.
(Moon x Earth) / 100 = 4374987 the circumference of Sun
(Sun / earth) x 100 = 10896 the circumference of Moon
(Sun / moon) x 100 = 40000 the circumference of Earth

Wow, all the regulars with their usual delusions.

I totally agree with you, and maybe when enough
people can wrap their tiny little minds around it, maybe
then we'll find the next part of the message.

I find that just astonishing! Pick any two, and they give
you the circumference of the third!
I think I'm going to have it printed on a T-shirt
divide that by 100 and we get 1,690,815.245. The suns circumference is 4,366,813

yeah but once you cut out all the fire and stuff, the number could be right. Like I'm 6'2" but only 5'11" with a haircut.
what do you know about the golden ratio stuff?edit on 14-2-2014 by ZetaRediculian because: (no reason given)
The earth is also 366 times larger than the moon!
The Sun measures 1.4 million km across, while the Moon is a mere 3,474 km across. In other words, the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon.
