[QUOTE="sjastro, post: 77636147, member: 352921"] What a load of complete utter drivel; are you now making things up to make a point or so deluded to as to be blinded by confirmation bias, relying on sources which promote misinformation and disinformation? Here is an unpleasant fact for you since the earth is a spherical object which rotates about an axis it conforms to the physics of a spinning top where the rotation axis undergoes precession. This causes the axis to shift, five thousand years ago the pole star was [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuban']Thuban - Wikipedia[/URL] not Polaris, the Egyptians knew this by aligning one of the ventilation shafts to the King's Chamber in the Great Pyramid to Thuban. Then there is the discovery of the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_apex']Solar apex - Wikipedia[/URL] by William Herschel in the 18th century where the solar system is moving relative to the Milky Way. The solar apex is located at RA 18h 03m 50.2s, dec +30° 00′ 16.8". These days the science of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrometry']Astrometry - Wikipedia[/URL] is so precise stellar motion not attributed to the earth's rotation can be detected in very short periods of time.
