Hi Robert.
 
You said, "From a Biblical standpoint: In the HC case the World rotates 
eastward, so the cosmos appears to rotate westward as seen from Earth."
 
How it "appears" is not the point. We are dealing with the actual motion of the 
Moon under each system. In the HC case, the Moon is going eastward. It must be 
really moving. The reality is that it must be moving somehow. If the World is 
stationary, then what we see of the Moon is what we get.
 
You further said, "From a scientific standpoint:
1- NASA claims that the Apollo trips started by inserting the spacecraft
first into Earth orbit, so the direction the Moon was moving at launch time
is irrelevant..... if you believe NASA.
2- The initial direction of all American rockets at lift-off is 90 degrees -
straight up...... if you believe NASA."
 
They are pointing straight up, yes, but they do not go straight up. They go 
eastwardly, over the Atlantic. You can plainly see this curve, even a short 
time after takeoff. They were placed into orbits that were in the same 
orientation as the World's alleged rotation - eastwardly. The Moon is going in 
this same direction in the HC model. It does not somehow change its direction 
when in LEO, nor does it go "straight" for the Moon. It has to spiral.
 
Yours in Christ,
 
Neville.

Dr. Jones,

From Biblical Topics/ "Do the alleged Apollo Moon landings conflict with the

case, the World is stationary and the cosmos
rotates westwardly. Therefore, to rendezvous with the Moon, a rocket would
need to be launched eastwardly in the heliocentric model and westwardly in
the Biblical model.>

From a Biblical standpoint:
In the HC case the World rotates eastward, so the cosmos appears to rotate
westward as seen from Earth.
In the Biblical (GC) case, the World is stationary and the cosmos does
rotate westward as seen from Earth.
Therefore, there is no difference in the preferred direction of launch -
westward - between HC and GC/Biblical models.

From a scientific standpoint:
1- NASA claims that the Apollo trips started by inserting the spacecraft
first into Earth orbit, so the direction the Moon was moving at launch time
is irrelevant..... if you believe NASA.
2- The initial direction of all American rockets at lift-off is 90 degrees -
straight up...... if you believe NASA.

Pax Christi,

Robert
